what is an unraveling journal? | creative journaling for self growth

February 1, 2021

Hello lovelies!

Today I’m sharing what I’m doing for my unraveling journal this year. If you recall, I’ve been keeping a journal each year that is all about me. It is a place I record and document my unraveling process. In scrapbook speak, it’s sort of a mixture of “One Little Word” and creative self reflection. I like to think of my journal as a mixture of self discovery and creative play time. It’s a book about me by me for me. My unraveling journal is a place where I document all the little ephipa-mes I have about myself, as well as, where I log all of my hopes, dreams, and inspirations too.

This year, I’m keeping it a little different than before. I’m keeping a deconstructed journal, which I think reflects my a gentle unfurling phrase for the year quite well. It’s basically a journal stack of loose pages that I will be working on.

I’m also planning on sharing a bit more of my process, especially setting up and starting my journal. If you’re still a bit curious at what exactly an unraveling journal is, definitely check out the video below, where I talk about what an unraveling journal is, how I came up with the idea, and how I keep one.

I also have a brand new video up on my Youtube channel today sharing my process of starting my journal. I always begin my journal with the guiding word (or phrase) for the year, an introduction to my journal, and my “stats” page. Starting my journal in this way gives future me a little glimpse at where I was then and I love seeing how I was in the past compared to how I am now.

I’m quite excited to see how this journal unfurls! I’m looking forward to it being super chunky and super textural at the end of this year!

Are you keeping a journal for yourself in this way? I would love to hear if you too are starting your own unraveling journal!

Sharing another spread from my @daphnes.diary scrapbook on my Youtube channel today. This one was to get a lot of different ephemera pieces into this book. Honestly, I've been keeping this project super simple and low-key. Not stressing too much about how it looks or whether or not I'm behind. Just enjoying the process of snipping and sticking. And of course lots of journaling!

Happy Monday loves. I do hope you're all well. xx

I shared a quick process of creating this spread in my @daphnes.diary scrapbook on my Youtube channel the other day. I haven't been very good at sharing these pages (or any journal pages) here lately. TBH, I've kind of been focusing on other things recently and doing more straight writing journaling than creative journaling. It's weird. I'm in a weird space. But I also feel like I'm supposed to be in this space, you know?

I shared the quick process of creating this spread in my @daphnes.diary scrapbook on my Youtube channel the other day. I'm quite behind in sharing all of these pages (and to be honest quite behind in actually documenting my last few weeks) but it is what it is. I'm not stressing it...just like how I'm not stressing that I'm MONTHS behind in my 5-year journal lol. Glad I've been daily journaling in my planner! xx

My new (small) TBR book stack for this year. I have it to hopefully read 20 books this year, but I decided to only pull out about 10 to see if I can get through that first. Y'all, I'm terrible at reading these days. I think I just need to do better at making time for it, so I started reading before bed. We'll see how it goes. Friend me on Goodreads: www.goodreads.com/aerialovely! I love seeing everyone's challenges! xx

I absolutely adore this passage about Spring from Jeanette Winterson.

Happy Astrological New Year! xx

Baby boy is 15 years old today! He's no little boy anymore, but a fine old senior dog (actually I think technically he's geriatric). He's definitely slowed down quite a bit with his thyroid problem and just general old age. C19 has definitely been really hard on him. He was struggling with his hyperactive thyroid all through 2020 and no one could figure out why he was so sad and blah until mid-2021 when he got properly diagnosed. But since being on his meds, he's got that puppy spirit again! He does have some separation anxiety now and literally needs to be with people constantly. But that's a given especially since there's always someone home now for him to be with. But it's getting better though! The absolute highlight of his week though is going over to our neighbor's apartment every Tuesday as I tutor one of the girls in math. He gets SO happy then because he gets to play lol. HBD Joey! xx
