Creative art journaling or visual journaling can be a powerful tool in self expression and self discovery. Journaling requires no previous art experience as its value is in the process of opening a creative mind rather than creating good art. Journaling can be used to help make sense of what is happening around us and how we feel about this; to give voice to something we feel cannot be spoken; to gain insight into an aspect about ourselves we may not have considered before, and to release any anger, pain or anguish, and a way to carry ourselves from one place to another.
