Common Questions About the Wellbeing Journal

Is there evidence that journaling helps wellbeing?
Research on expressive writing, pioneered by psychologist James Pennebaker, has found that writing about thoughts and feelings can be associated with improved mood and reduced stress for many people, though individual experiences vary.
Where is my journal stored?
Entirely on your own device — your entries are never sent to our servers or seen by anyone else, unless you choose to export or share them yourself.
Is journaling a replacement for therapy?
No. Journaling can be a useful complement to therapy or self-care, but it isn't a substitute for professional support if you're experiencing ongoing distress — see our guide to free and low-cost mental health help if cost is a barrier to seeing someone.
