This past weekend I tried something different. I'm used to
write in my journal notebook during the evening or at night. This time I did it
in the morning, as soon as I woke up. I liked the experience. When compared I
realized that in the afternoon, sometimes, is more difficult to write for me or
I have to think more things to see how I
organize them in my mind. On the other hand, when I did it in the morning it
made me much easier, because my mind was clear and fresh. The thoughts were
flowing in a quick and convenient way. I tried to remember my dreams on
Saturday and Sunday, but I do not remember them, so I wrote as I felt in the morning. In addition, those two nights my dog slept in
my room and was more incline to it and not so focused on what I was writing. The
name of my dog is Peluche. I would write in the morning without my dog in the
room, because this will not distract me. One of the techniques that I most like
is to go to the yard of my house. There I perceive much silence and I feel
completely relaxed, I feel comfortable. I look for that time of day in which I
flow, choose the place that I like the in the yard and write. Another technique
that most use when writing is at night just before going to bed. I prepare in
my room, look for a good lighting and my mind flows. Anyway, this experience
was pretty good for me, had never tried to write in the morning and liked it,
but I don't think that I would practice it all the time. The most I like is
when I'm in that contact with nature, and I'm in my comfort zone. I recommend
that you try these techniques, but first find your space and favorite moment before
you start writing.Wednesday, October 1, 2014

Nice techniques Debora! I didn't thought on that for my writing experience with my journey journal, so I'll take note so that in the future I can use this techquine at my house's surroundings. In the case of the dream journal we had to do for the journey journal, I recommend you to have your book and pencil aside your bed so that when you wake up, rapiddly you can write about your dream because I know is very difficult to remember it. I did it once in the way I just told you and it was efficient for me. Don't forget to visit my blog and comment too!
ReplyDeleteWhile I was writing on my journal, I wish I'd had gone to more different places. Mostly, I'd write in my room or at the library at university. Comparing the two, I feel like I had better sessions writing while I was in my room, maybe it's because it's familiar.
ReplyDeleteaww love ur doggies is very adorable
ReplyDeleteabout writing in the morning is nice to know that work out for u
Im NOT a morning person >_>
I usually have to think about a subject for a long time in order to write about it, so writing in the morning was very challenging for me. Your techniques seem very helpful. I enjoy writing surrounded by nature as well.
