What to write about in your journal in February
Not gonna lie, when we think February, there’s one specific day that come to mind: Valentine’s Day.
While there’s a lot more than Valentine’s Day making February special, like Black History Month or the fact that there’s only 28 days, it’s hard not to think about the day of “love”.
Love. Love is the topic I believe we should focus on the second month of the year. After all, as social creatures, love is what humans live for.
There are so many meanings to love and, in my opinion, to master love is to master life. What does love mean to you?
Here’s my take on the topic:
Love starts with yourself. You can only give as much love to others as you give to yourself.
Hurt people hurt people. And love heals. And I know it might sound really vague… but I’ve experienced it and now, I know there’s no going back.
When you deeply realize what love is really about, you change. You also understand how you acted (or reacted) from a place of ego instead of a place of love.
So. I’ve written these February journal prompts with that in mind.
Understanding the true meaning of love, more specifically self-love, takes time. Healing takes time.
So when use these February journal prompts, keep in mind that they are timeless, and not meant to be answered all at once.
They’re a tool that should be used and re-used over and over again.
They are self-discovery journal prompts, self-love journal prompts, introspection journal prompts. But altogether, these February journal prompts are meant to help you boost your emotional awareness and, ultimately, help you heal and give more love to yourself.
Journaling tips for beginners
No matter how good your February journal prompts are, it won’t do much if you don’t actually take the time to write.
Journaling is a habit to develop. Maybe you didn’t quite follow through your New Year resolution in January.
That’s okay. These February journal prompts will help you to get started; or get back on track.
But first, here’s some tips to help you to make writing a daily habit (I swear it’s not as hard as it looks!):
- Focus on the developing the habit of writing, rather than focusing on how and what to write.
- Don’t overthink it. Write what’s on your mind or use prompts.
- Don’t wait to have the perfect journal, pen or timing. Writing is writing. So just start writing.
- Start small and keep it simple. For example, you could start by committing to writing 1 thought or sentence a day.
- Put your journal out in a place that you can see it, like on your bedside table.
- Choose and commit to a time and place you’re going to write everyday, and set a reminder on your phone.
- Get excited about writing; pair this habit with something you already do and enjoy, like taking a bath or sipping your morning coffee.

Book recommendations to boost emotional awareness in February
Here are 2 books that I absolutely LOVED and can’t stop recommending to all my friends interested in personal growth, specifically on the topic of emotional awareness, love and relationships.
This book helped me to heal my toxic relationships patterns, literally. It’s helped me get rid of my insecurities in love (aka abandonment issues) or least, know what to do with them! Goodbye chasing emotionally unavailable people.
If you’re single, and feel like you can’t seem to find the right partner for you, this one is an absolute must.
Honestly, stop reading and get your hands on this book now. It’s going to change your life.
The second book is about letting go. It helps to process emotions, without you even realizing it.
You should get your hand on this book now if you’re looking to elevate your consciousness and step into a higher version of yourself.
The more you read, you’ll feel a shift in the way you see yourself, and the way you feel about yourself and the world.
It’s not logical. It’s not just about understanding a theory and applying it. It’ll get you unstuck without you even realizing it!
Read it and see for yourself!
