A Guided Journal of Self Discovery for Young People in Recovery

This journal is designed to support adolescents navigating the challenges of an eating disorder. Drawing on neuroscience and psychological research, it offers structured prompts that help young people rewire the brain’s negative thought patterns and reconnect with their true selves.

Grounded in the science of neuroplasticity, the journal focuses on developing key recovery skills including self-compassion, mindfulness, emotional awareness, gratitude, and purpose. By reflecting regularly, adolescents begin to build stronger neural pathways that support emotional resilience, self-understanding, and personal growth.

Whether used as part of a therapeutic journey or independently, this journal serves as a powerful tool to guide young people toward healing, self-discovery, and a more hopeful future.
