Having a daily journaling practice has been touted for pretty much everything (well, at least its ability to boost creativity, help you focus on self-care, and even make you more productive). But, like meditation, journaling is one of those things that comes to some people more easily than others, even if you’re a complete believer in the practice’s benefits. There’s a solution, à la guided meditation, for those who find it difficult to buckle down and make something from nothing: guided journals.

If you’re the type who sits down to journal only to be met with the mental crickets, try one of these nine options. They’re full of prompts, instructions, and guidance so that you can create a new healthy habit, just in time for hygge season (hello, comfy writing chair and cup of tea).
