Exercises to promote self-understanding |
Why We Should Write Down Our Thoughts As the author and essayist Joan Didion once observed, 'I don't know what I think until I write it down'.
The purpose of writing isn't just to keep a record of one's thoughts. It's an attempt to make those thoughts comprehensible to ourselves. Writing compels us to sift through the mess of sense impressions, memories, inherited beliefs and fragmentary ideas our minds contain so that we might understand their true importance and meaning. We're not simply dictating; we're discovering what we truly think.
The School of Life has always understood the act of writing as an aid to thought. We've created a range of guided journals and workbooks designed to help you understand the ways you think about some of the biggest themes of life — love, calm, and self-knowledge. |
