Circle Journaling
"If you go into a coaching session or a therapy session and you come out with the exact same story, what just happened? Nothing good. If you do a half mediocre job, the story that they're starting with, it's going to be different in half an hour or different in 45 minutes. So if you know that their story is going to change, why would your believe it now at the beginning? Do not believe your client's story. Observe your client's story." - Mark England
What is circle journaling? Writing down your thoughts and feelings in a journal, but continously telling yourself the same story over and over again with no resolution or relief. You might even be making it worse.
