Background Techniques from Soul Journaling Yahoo Group

I was recently talking to a friend about how I have trouble remembering things from just a few years ago. Because of our extreme reliance on our short-term memory, it is perfectly normal to forget things from the relatively distant past. With prompting, though, it is possible to recall these memories. That's why I've started journaling day-to-day life in addition to soul journaling (which is a deeper, more emotional process). I want to be able to remember little things about my current life many years from now.

Sarah Whitmire posted some background techniques on the Soul Journaling yahoo group that I decided to use for some of these daily journal pages. Here are a few:




I encourage you to join the yahoo group, download the technique file, and try some of these backgrounds yourself!
