Day 1: Do a Stream of Consciousness

[Greeting]

Thank you so much for joining us in the Meditation and Mindfulness Challenge! For the 
next 21 days, you will go on a journey to exploring different forms of meditation and how 
to add both meditation and mindfulness to your daily routine. 

You will learn about the benefits of different forms of meditation, how to meditate during 
regular daily activities, and how you can be more mindful on a regular basis. 

For day 1, we are going to talk about stream of consciousness journaling and how it 
can help with meditation.


Why Stream of Consciousness For Meditation?

Stream of consciousness is a style of journaling, also known as a brain dump. This is 
where you write about whatever is on your mind, without having a specific topic you are 
writing about. It not only works great for stress and anxiety, but it can also be useful for 
meditation and mindfulness. 

For mindfulness, this form of journaling allows you to stay in the present moment, and 
call forward your thoughts and emotions before writing them down on paper.

This is also useful as a form of meditation, because your thoughts have a primary focus, 
which is to be present and write down whatever you are thinking. It is a great activity to 
add to your daily meditation practice.


Today in the Workbook: Use today’s workbook and journal to write your stream of 
consciousness page, or you can do this digitally on your computer if you prefer that to
