Finding Flow – Navigating the holiday season with Flow Journaling

The Christmas season can bring a mix of emotions — joy, anticipation, tenderness, and sometimes a sense of pressure, complexity, or loneliness in the midst of the noise.

Many of us meet this time of year with full hearts and full nervous systems. Some of us feel the weight of family dynamics or the absence of people we love. Others simply long for a quiet pause in the midst of it all.

This 60-minute session is designed as a soft place to land.

Flow Journaling is a simple, compassionate, mindfulness-based writing practice that helps us come back to ourselves — especially when life feels stirred up. In this hour together, we’ll weave gentle relaxation, grounding reflection, and guided writing as a way to steady ourselves for the season ahead.

You’re warmly welcome here — exactly as you are.

What to Expect

During our time together, we’ll explore:

• A mindful relaxation practice to help your body settle and arrive.
• A compassionate look at how journaling can help us find clarity around personal boundaries, especially during tender, complex or busy times.
• A Flow Journaling prompt to gently explore what you most need from this season — whether that’s space, connection, boundaries, rest, or something as yet unnamed.
• A quiet guided writing space, held with care and kindness.
• A bonus journaling prompt sent afterwards, so you can continue the practice in your own time.

You don’t need any writing experience — just a pen, paper, and a quiet place to sit.

My hope is that you leave feeling steadier, clearer, and more supported — whether your December feels joyful, complicated, quiet, or all of these at once.

Who It’s For

This session is for anyone who would like to:

• Find a calmer footing during the holiday season
• Explore supportive boundaries with clarity and kindness
• Meet feelings of tenderness, frustration, loneliness or overwhelm with compassion
• Carve out a moment of peaceful reflection in a full or emotionally complex month
• Learn a simple journaling practice that can support you long after the session ends

All are welcome. You don’t have to be “in a good place” to join. You can simply be here.

Join Us

If you’re longing for a quiet, grounding hour — a small moment of spaciousness before the season begins — I’d love to welcome you.

Whether you've never journaled before or you want to get back into it or you'd like to try a new approach... settle in, listen, and see where it takes you..

This event is free for members of Henny's mailing list. If you're not already a member, you'll be added to the list, so we can send you the Zoom link nearer the time.

Please stay connected for the follow-up from the session, including a special offer on Henny's books from Inner Work Project, and a bonus Flow Journaling practice.

If you ever want to unsubscibe you can, of course, do that at any time. And you can always choose what you'd most love to receive.
