"I can change right here, right now."

I realized that I could always live the life I choose, in my own way, without doing anything drastic or going far away. Once I came to this kizuki, I had to laugh and say, “Oh my God, I can do that right away." I love this method because it always give me an actionable chance to put my kizuki into practice and see how I can connect my realization to my immediate life.

"What an epiphany to release a long-held assumption!"

Today's first journaling prompt instigated a major kizuki (realization) for me. I wrote out an assumption that I had been holding onto for a long time. Oh man, it was such a revelation, like the scales fell from my eyes. Finally, I landed at a sense of feeling like "I am the best!" I sincerely felt the expansiveness of possibilities beyond my limiting beliefs.

"So eye-opening to notice my own patterns."

Not only did I realize some of the underlying thought-patterns that I have; I also realized that there is nothing that I shouldn't have in me. When I came to this kizuki I felt like it was time for me to give myself a hug. After realizing these patterns, I could free myself to be honest about what I like or don't like, and feel authentic love for others as well as myself. I didn't even know that I could feel that way, except that I saw such a way of thinking pour out of me in writing. I also think that it was the act of writing itself that helped to bring me one step closer to that state too. When I find myself stuck in a negative pattern again, I would like to remind myself of the true self that I realized on this day.

"I was lost and anxious but I found myself."

Recently, I had lost track of myself as I didn't know what my values were and I felt anxious and insecure on a daily basis. But Kizuki Journaling MAE Y method has cleared this murkiness up for me. I am now looking forward to every day from here on forth. Thank you for all your great themes and prompts.

"I realized I was bringing myself down."

The day after the Kizuki Journaling session, I had a depressing event happen to me. ...Except, it wasn't the same because I was able to realize in the moment how I had only evaluated it as a “depressing event” based on my own thoughts!

"It felt good to write it down."

This session was timely for me, as I was just at a point in my life when I felt stirred up by anxiety. It felt good to get a lot out! I had noticed that when I try to deal with my worries, more worries would come up one after another, causing me heartache. But now, I understand that that me was on autopilot because I had this underlying belief that “I am a person who constantly needs to have at least one worry." I'm excited to learn that such thinking patterns could be shifted as I become conscious of my own thought-habits and choose to shift it every time.

"It unraveled me from a past memory that I was stuck in."

For me, every Kizuki Journaling session is an "aha moment." I realized that up until now, I had tormented myself a lot with my own thinking. I feel that I am changing more and more from the past that I used to be so stuck in because I used to have a lot of guilt around it. I saw that I am able to make myself happy. I observed myself writing “I love myself dearly now,” and I almost cried when I looked back at the words I had written.

"I discovered that I matter."

I always look forward to Kizuki Journaling sessions. This time, especially in the second half, I was moved to tears... It was such a happy, fulfilling session that allowed me to remember and feel all the love I have received in my life. Thank you for reminding me that I am just one person, but that I deeply matter too.

"My habitual worry and hurriedness UNDONE!"

My usual pattern was a vicious cycle of worry and hurriedness, especially before heading out the door. “Did I forget anything? Am I on time?” "Do I have my wallet? My cell phone?” And on and on. I would feel so crappy about this that I'd feel heavy about going out at all. My solution had been to start preparing everything the day before. Still though, in those moments just before stepping out the door, I'd feel hurried and worried. I did this for decades. In our session today, when I looked over what I wrote, I realized that I was using the same words that I usually say to myself, to my family too. What an eye-opener! I am now preparing for a trip to Tokyo with my mother tomorrow and I now I can say to myself gently, "Let's get ready together!" in a non-hurried way. I'm also challenging myself to speak to my family and friends in the same compassionate manner. It was such a godly session for me. I will continue to take Kizuki Journaling sessions again and again. Thank you very much!

"I want to live with this kizuki."

In today's session, I realized that when I am telling my children "do this" or "do that," it is none other than myself who feels ambivalent and heavy-hearted about it. Of course, it's hard to go around cleaning up after the children's messes, but it was a significant realization I had about my own thoughts and feelings and I would like to take this realization (kizuki) with me in the days to come. Thank you for this time. It makes me kind to myself.

"I realized that there's no need to rush."

After the session, I was surprised to discover a comfortable feeling of warmth, a relaxed sense of no hurry, and a desire to live life in flow all emerge from within me. I was also pleasantly surprised to find that I could loosen the tension in my relationship with my kids because I know now that I don't need to force my children to do something or to be a certain way. I think it will take time to change all of my thinking habits, but I want to come back to this feeling again and again.
