ABOUT JOURNALING
Journaling traces back thousands of years, evolving from ancient philosophical reflections to modern therapeutic practice. Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius penned his famous Meditations around 170 AD—personal notes never intended for publication that became one of history's most influential texts on Stoic philosophy and self-examination.
In 10th-century Japan, court ladies kept intricate diaries blending poetry, observation, and personal reflection. During the Renaissance, Leonardo da Vinci filled thousands of pages with sketches, scientific observations, and stream-of-consciousness musings that revealed the inner workings of a brilliant mind.
The practice flourished in the 17th through 19th centuries as literacy spread—ship captains logged voyages, explorers documented discoveries, and ordinary people began keeping personal diaries. What started as record-keeping gradually became a tool for self-understanding and emotional processing.
Modern therapeutic journaling emerged in the 1960s when psychologist Ira Progoff developed the Intensive Journal method, and gained scientific validation in the 1980s through Dr. James Pennebaker's groundbreaking research on expressive writing and health. Today, journaling blends ancient wisdom with contemporary psychology, offering a timeless practice for navigating modern life.
