WOW: That is so amazing! What is the difference between life for you when you first wrote this book and how it looks now?
Mari: I am excited to report that I now live the life of the True Mari L. McCarthy. When I wrote Journaling Power I was in the early stages of healing the issues in my tissues. Now that I am embodied in my True Self, I acknowledge that Self-Love is where the action is. My Journaling takes me on a daily treasure hunt! Health-wise, I’ve been off BigPharma drugs for 17 years, OTC drugs for 12, on a Paleo diet for 2, sleep straight through every night 7-8 hours (Yay! No bathroom breaks needed!) And talk about creativity!
WOW: I can't even begin to tell you how inspiring that is. What advice do you have for people who have never journaled before?
Mari: Visit CreateWriteNow.com to discover what Journaling For The Health Of It@ has for them wherever they are on their life journey. We have a Life Matters Blog, Mari’s Journaling Power Blog, a Journaling Power Prompts Blog with about 385+ eclectic Journaling Prompts and a Store that has 20+ Inner Journey Workbooks including the newest Start Journaling For The Health Of It® Write Now which is a good starting point. My suggestion is to then get a notebook and a pen and put a question at the top of the page and then write, write, and write until you feel (my favorite 4 letter “F” word) like stopping. It’s also very important for everyone to know that there is only one right way to Journal: Your Way!
WOW: That's the best way of all! What are you working on now?
Mari: I’m writing the 3rd book in the Journaling Power Trilogy, Mindset Medicine: A Self-Love Journaling Power Book and creating a Mindset Medicine Journaling Power Prompts Card Deck. They’ll be published December 7, my 70th birthday week. I’m also celebrating 23 years as a Journaling Power Journaler and anyone who’d like to celebrate with me can come to my CreateWriteNow.com Store and get 23% off everything when they enter Mari23 at checkout.

Mari, I LOVE the new colors of your book cover. It's fresh, soft, and gorgeous! Plus, it sparkles with all those awards. :) My journaling helps my creative writing and memoir writing so much. It's an integral part of my writing process. Thank you for the suggestion--I subscribed to your Youtube channel. I'm excited about the third book in your trilogy, and had no idea you were creating a journaling prompt card deck! That is such a smart idea, and it'll make a great gift. Best of luck on your tour! It looks like a great one. :)
Great to hear from you Ang. I’ve always known you were #JustWriteON! :)
Here’s a Journaling Power Self-Care Workbook for the WOW community. #JustWriteON! https://store.createwritenow.com/products/15-days-of-care-for-the-caregiver?_pos=2&_sid=295f1b36c&_ss=r
I have been journaling off and on for years. It is fun to go back and read them once in awhile.
I have never tried journaling but am going to start I hear it is good for self help .;
I like to combine my journaling and planning in one place, usually a traveler's notebook, because journaling is my way of talking myself through my plans. It's how I brainstorm ideas and do brain dumps. It's how I break down my projects into steps. My journal is also my commonplace book, where I write down notes from videos I've watched and books or articles I've read. In short, journaling is a huge part of my life!
Hi Ladies! Here is the best link to the Journaling Power Care For The Caregiver Workbook I mentioned above: http://bit.ly/3rwvkYP
If this doesn't work, contact me at CreateWriteNow.com and I'll send it to you. #JournalingPower
I try to journal every day. If I forget, I don't beat myself up over it. But I am getting better at building a daily habit.
I am just beginning my journey with journaling. I have heard over and over just how powerful and helpful it could be, I had to experience it first hand. I love just going to pick out fun colored pens to journal with.
