December is here which means Christmas is approchig and so it’s the perfect time to share with you my list of December journal prompts. Some are cozy and some are more festive – making them also nice Christmas journal prompts.

A little reminder that these festive journal prompts can also work for those of you who do not celebrate Christmas, but any other holiday.

why Christmas journal prompts this December anyway?

The habit of writing and journaling is a form of self-care that impacts greatly on your well-being. Journal prompts in general are a perfect way to get into the habit of writing and expresing yourself without feeling overwhelmed by it.

That’s where my list of December journal prompts, those festive Christmas journal prompts enter, because there’s more to it: the holiday season can be hard on a lot of people and for many different reasons. It’s sometimes hard to find your usual light that kept shining within you during this time of year therefore it’s getting easy to lose yourself in the joy and merry of others.

That’s why expressing your feelings but in a festive and light type of way can help you get into the holiday spirit while healing and getting to know yourself better.
