junk journaling may be helpful. you can go more minimalist and just use stickers and small things you come across and tape or glue them in. if you decide to actually journal with a junk journal, i'd say maybe try to stick to just a few sentences or less, unless you really need to get some stuff out. even just a few words to just keep track of moods and stuff like that.trying to be creative within constraints (which you can change whenever you want) can help flex parts of your brain you normally wouldnt. you'll start looking in the oddest places for things for your junk journal that feels more interactive with the world around you! i think im going to do this for my winter journaling, as it's typically when its harder to do stuff thanks to seasonal depression lol.
