Journal writing works for me.  

On a daily basis I am taking what happens in my head, running it down through my heart, then up through my shoulder, down my arm, and into my fingers that hold the pen. From there I let all the good, bad and the ugly emerge.

Even though I spend my days typing hundreds of words, I am drawn to the physicality of writing by hand, the act of translating what I'm feeling and thinking into words on paper. Writing daily makes me feel whole, purposeful, balanced, and scrubbed clean.

There is so much about the process of writing that is mysterious to me, but it keeps me healthy.
