March Joy Journal: A Fresh Start & Stories of Renewal

Hey there, Joymakers! March is here, and with it comes that sweet spot between winter and spring—a time of transition, fresh energy, and new possibilities. But before we leap ahead, let’s hit pause for a second.

First, if you haven’t been keeping up with your Joy Journal, no worries! This isn’t about perfection—it’s about presence. And guess what? You can start NOW. No need to play catch-up. Just recap what’s been happening and move forward. Simple, right?

So let’s start with two things:

  1. A quick recap of the year so far (so nothing gets lost in the shuffle).
  2. A new focus on March—stories of renewal, celebrations, and small moments that mark the shift toward spring.

PART ONE: A SIMPLE WAY TO CATCH UP

If January and February slipped by in a blur, here’s your chance to hit “rewind” and capture what matters—without overthinking it.

📝 PROMPTS TO RECAP JANUARY & FEBRUARY:

  • January: Fresh Starts – What’s one thing you did this year that felt like a fresh start? (A new routine, a new mindset, a small win?)
  • February: Love Stories – Think beyond romantic love! What moment of kindness or connection did you experience this month?

⏳ KEEP IT EASY:

  • Scroll through your photos and pick 1-3 favorites from Jan & Feb. Write a quick note to yourself about what’s happening in each one.
  • Take 5 minutes—yes, just 5!—and email yourself a quick recap. Boom. Done.

PART TWO: MARCH – STORIES OF RENEWAL & SPRING VIBES

Now, let’s talk about March. This month is full of moments—the first hints of spring, celebrations, and that urge to start fresh. So, what are we documenting?

🌱 THEME: REAWAKENING & RENEWAL
March is all about shedding the old and stepping into the new. Let’s capture that energy in our Joy Journal.

📸 PROMPTS FOR MARCH:

  • First Signs of Spring: What’s the first change in nature that made you stop and notice? A bird chirping? A new bloom?
  • Spring Cleaning Your Life: What’s one thing (physical, emotional, or mental) you’re ready to clear out?
  • March Celebrations: Are you celebrating anything this month? St. Patrick’s Day, a birthday, an anniversary, or just the fact that you made it through winter?
  • The Longer Days: How does more sunlight affect your mood? Your routines?
  • A Moment of Growth: Have you taken a step forward in some area of your life? Even a tiny one? That counts.

💡 BONUS TIP:
March is about momentum. Use this month to set small, doable goals—whether that’s journaling one more story, taking a walk to enjoy the season, or simply noticing the little joys in your everyday life.

WHAT TO DO NEXT?

1️⃣ Pick ONE prompt and email your Joy Journal today.

This is YOUR story. Your life. Your moments. And trust me, every single one is worth documenting.
