Journaling prompts to reflect and inspire at the end of the year

In the time that nature finds a gentler pace, our social calendars fill with a flurry of parties, presents, dinners, and dates. But as a new year beckons, there’s no better occasion to reflect on the last twelve months and reset for the next.

From challenges to triumphs, and hurdles to highlights – sitting down with your thoughts can help you transition between seasons with clarity and calm. Setting resolutions and goals can be overwhelming, so we recommend a gentler approach to welcome the year ahead with more thought and less pressure.
We've curated our favourite journaling prompts to celebrate the past year as you manifest for the next with an open heart and mind.
