Blog Tour Invitation: 27 Days of Journaling
Greetings!

 

I'm always amazed by the healing powers of journal writing. When you decide to make a commitment to yourself and your well being through journaling, there's no telling what you can accomplish. Mari McCarthy knows this first hand.

Mari's need to journal started with the need to learn to write. When Multiple Sclerosis attacked her right side, leaving her right hand unable to write, Mari had to find a way to teach her left hand to take over the task. A journal seemed like the perfect way to practice writing. But what she discovered through journaling was her true self, buried under the old, negative baggage, and a cure for many spiritual, mental, and psychophysical diseases, like Shingles, which Mari says healed in less than 3 weeks. "And with lots and lots of daily journaling," Mari says, "we're making progress in curing my diseases to achieve my goal of perfect health!" And because of the amazing results she received from journaling, Mari went on to become a certified journal therapist who is dedicated to helping others discover themselves through journaling.

If you're up for a challenge and want to transform your life in less than a month, you're going to love Mari's book Peace of Mind and Body: 27 Days of Journaling to Health & Happiness.

We're launching her blog tour today with an interview at The Muffin, so be sure to stop by
