Writing in a journal is not only a powerful creative practice, but also a highly therapeutic one. It doesn't take any serious physical or mental strain, and it can be as deep or surface-level as you like, but the practice of consciously thinking about your life and your feelings will be helpful no matter your choice. There's no one way to do it correctly. 

That being said, committing to a daily (or even weekly) practice can be difficult in a world as hectic as ours. Sometimes it's just too hard to slow your racing mind to put anything down on paper. Sometimes you feel like you don't have anything to say. Sometimes, though, we just hide from our life and prefer to skate by without having to think about things.

Since journaling can be admittedly difficult, having a cute one to write in can make the process much easier! Here are 12 that are so adorable you'll want to write something, anything at least once a week.
