Or, traditions may be bringing feelings of grief to the surface. And we haven’t even mentioned those 4 p.m. sunsets . . . Holiday blues,
Ever sat down to journal with the best intentions, only to stare at a blank page for five minutes? Journaling can be a rewarding (and, dare we say, fun) way to prioritize mental health — but not if you don’t know where to start.
