Welcome!

Today, we’re focusing on Journaling for Abundance.

First, grab your Mini Abundance Journal, HERE, to get started. It’s free.

So, what is an Abundance Journal and what’s it for?

It’s basically just a series of journal prompts you write about, focusing on what you want more of.

You write about bringing more of what you want, into your life.

Very similar to a gratitude journal, an Abundance Journal can help you to track gratitude and what you are thankful for. It helps you get clear on what you want, stirring up feelings of gratitude, which in turn, will help you cultivate an attitude of gratitude — therefore, helping you bring prosperity into your life.

Before we get started, here’s a quick background on me.

I’m Holly Ecimovic, I create books and journals for health and wellness coaches, and for those who love personal development + fitness.

I also design journals. Download all my freebies for your coaching clients, or treat yourself, over here in my Free Stuff Vault [ACCESS NOW.]

Next, let’s talk more about how using your Abundance Journal can help you get results when it comes to goal setting.

How to Use Your Abundance Journal

You can first start off by choosing one journal prompt to write about each morning.

The Mini Abundance Journal has three specific journal prompts.

For example, try this journal prompt:

“What is your earliest memory of abundance, and how did it make you feel?”

Write at least four sentences about that. Take your time, and really reflect on what you’re putting down on paper.

When I’m finished, I like to wrap up my journaling with a simple gratitude list: Journal about three things you’re grateful for today.

It could be anything.

From something small, as “thankful for a nap,” to large, “thankful I have a loving family.”

Now, as you go through your day, notice how you will recall what you wrote about. You might even remember these positive focus centers, things you wrote about, when something does not go your way — and immediately you can override the ‘negative’ thing that happened, simply by remembering the wonderful things you are thankful for!

By recording and journaling about abundance and gratitude, we can remember to hold onto the feeling, then we create more good things from that feeling.

For example, let’s say you wrote in your gratitude journal one morning.

You go about your day, and someone really says something to you that presses your buttons.

Let’s just say, they said something like, “you look tired,” when you’ve already had a chaotic morning. Let’s just say for some reason, them saying how run down you look just really sets you off.

Well, despite the odd remark, you might just for a split second remember what you wrote in your gratitude/abundance journal that day — and you can remind yourself to re-focus your energy on the good thing, instead of the rude comment someone said. That’s just a small example of how you can leverage journaling to your own advantage. Why not?

3 Easy Abundance Journal Ideas

You can definitely have some fun using the Mini Abundance Journal I made for you, HERE. Here are 2 other Abundance Journal Ideas:

Promptly Gratitude Journals: These are amazing Gratitude and Reflection Journals. These gratitude journals are meant to help you become the best version of yourself that you can possibly be. What does that mean, exactly? Well, through thoughtful guided prompts, these journals will help you to practice a more mindful approach to your life. They come in Sea Foam, Wheat, Dusty Rose Cashew, and Amber. SO beautiful! Check them out, HERE. I recommend the Cashew color.

Soothi Custom Handmade Leather Journals: These journals are SO ornate and unique. I highly suggest getting one of the embossed, personalized ones, or check out the ones with amazing quotes on them. (Check them out, HERE.) These handmade leather-bound journals have a vintage look and feel. The leather notebooks are functional, yet elegant — great for gifts!

Side note: I also highly recommend Soothi for that person who you can just never seem to find the right gift for. All the Soothi products are made using repurposed leather and tree-free paper that is at minimum 125gsm. (Awesome.) You have to take a look at all the different quotes embossed on them and get them personalized with your name or inscription. My favorite one right now is the Agatha Christie one: “Instinct is a marvelous thing…it can neither be explained or ignored.” (View here.)

6 Tips for Staying Consistent with your Abundance Journal

  • Keep it in the same place all the time, perhaps your nightstand. You’ll always know where it is!

  • Decide on a certain time of day that you will commit to journaling, and stick with it.

  • Choose a number. For example, if the number is ‘3’ then choose 3 journal prompts to write about, or write down 3 ways you are thankful, 3 things you have gratitude for, 3 goals you want to accomplish…you get the idea! Kind of like a bullet journal. Nothing wrong with making lists when you’re journaling!

  • Write down any goals you were able to achieve through journaling. Tracking good results will reinforce good behavior!

  • Make your journaling area, i.e. your bedroom, living room, etc., as comfortable as possible. A warm and inviting place will be ideal for writing and reflecting.

  • Have fun and tell your friends to journal, too!
