Why a Gratitude Journal Can Make You Feel Worse And What to Write Instead This New Year
At the end of the year, many people decide to start a gratitude journal.
It’s meant to help us feel better — calmer, more positive, more resilient.
But in my clinic, I often see the opposite.
Some people feel more stressed, more anxious, and even more exhausted after journaling.
This isn’t because gratitude is bad.
It’s because gratitude alone doesn’t always change behavior, reduce comparison, or address an exhausted nervous system.
In this video, I explain:
• Why gratitude journaling can sometimes increase stress
• How it can disconnect us from our body’s signals
• And why willpower isn’t the real issue
Instead, I introduce a simple alternative:
the sensory journal — a 30-second practice that helps your nervous system feel safe enough to change.
This New Year, don’t aim for perfect positivity.
Start by listening to your body.
