Pittsburg, Dec 12, 2018 (Issuewire.com) - Social worker and author Priscilla Andrea Sobremonte recognizes the human need to deeply know ourselves. Her book, Therapeutic Journaling: Making Sense of my Life, offers a systematic way to do just that. The journal is filled with questions that help the user look back on his journey and growth as a person.
In her introduction, the author focuses on the themes of history and struggle. According to her, once we learn to see our past objectively, we free ourselves from the burden and guilt of our choices, and that knowing ourselves is a painful process but its the kind of pain that needs to be endured. She hopes to enlighten her readers that man is a creature of both positive and negative forces. The goal is to see oneself beyond the individual parts and see a person deeply rooted in his or her uniqueness and identity.
Journaling has always been a common therapeutic exercise allowing a person to deeply reflect on experiences and feelings. Jotting down a personal account of ones life helps provide clarity to competing emotions, and a way to evaluate successes and failures.
Therapeutic Journaling: Making Sense of my Life is a positive addition towards this practice and in the growing movement of acknowledging the importance of mental health. Sobremontes extensive work in dealing with traumatized children and imprisoned adolescents informs her methods here. Her expertise in the field is instructive of how profound using her journal can be.
