Journaling
One of the biggest advantages of journaling is the opportunity for self-reflection. When you put your thoughts on paper, you take the time to organize and analyze them. Often, we are not fully aware of what is truly bothering us until we put it into words. A journal can serve as a mirror, helping us see things from a new perspective and gain clarity.
Self-Concept
The self-concept is the idea we have of ourselves – the sum of our beliefs, thoughts, values, and feelings about ourselves. It includes how we see ourselves (self-image), how we believe others see us (social image), and how we would like to be (ideal image).
