5 Life Changing Journaling Tips To Connect With Your Spirit Guides
If you’re an empath or intuitive feeling overwhelmed or disconnected, journaling can help ground your energy and open a clearer channel to guidance. Learn how intentional writing supports intuition, manifestation, and spiritual connection.
By Polly Green
Journaling is one of the simplest spiritual practices I know, and also one of the most powerful.
Not because it’s fancy or mystical, but because writing creates a meeting point between your inner world and the unseen support around you. When you put pen to paper, something shifts. Energy moves. Clarity lands. Guidance has a place to arrive.
I often think of journaling as a form of energetic communication. A quiet conversation between you and your spiritual team, your guides, ancestors, angels, or whatever language feels true for you.
When everything stays in your head, it can feel tangled and abstract. But the moment you write, you’re saying: This matters. I’m listening. I’m available.
Over time, you may notice that life starts to respond, through synchronicities, intuitive nudges, emotional clarity, or a deep sense of inner knowing.
You don’t need a perfect setup to begin. A simple notebook and pen are enough. What matters most is consistency and intention. Choose a time of day you can realistically commit to, even if it’s just a few minutes. Create a small ritual if it helps, a candle, a cup of tea, a few deep breaths to settle your nervous system.
One of my favorite ways to journal is by writing big-picture intentions.
These aren’t goals in the traditional sense. They’re states of being. Think less about what you want to get and more about who you’re becoming.
Instead of writing, “I want to make more money,” you might write:
I am abundant, creative, and open to receiving opportunities that align with my purpose.
This is where journaling becomes transformative. You’re not just asking for change, you’re teaching your body and nervous system what it feels like to live in that future reality now. You’re aligning thought, emotion, and energy in the present moment.
That’s the essence of manifestation. And it’s also how guidance becomes easier to hear.
If you’d like to go deeper into this practice, I walk through it step-by-step in the video above, including how to structure your journaling so it becomes a true conversation with your spiritual team.
Start where you are. Keep it simple. Let the page hold you, and see what starts to answer back. And if it sparks a feeling of “I want support with this”, I currently have a few openings for 1:1 work, always happy to connect with those who feel called.

How to interpret signs from the otherside a guide for empaths
Ever wonder if that “sign” was really from the Other Side or just your imagination?
In my new video, I explore the subtle, often overlooked ways guidance shows up: through timing, emotion, intuition, and presence. Perfect for empaths, the spiritually curious, or anyone wanting to tune in more clearly.
By Polly Green
I’ve been noticing signs for as long as I can remember. Small nudges, repeated numbers, feathers, songs, memories that show up exactly when I need them… all these little whispers from the Other Side.
But here’s the thing: it’s not always obvious. It’s not always dramatic. Most of the time, it’s subtle, quiet, and easy to miss if we aren’t paying attention.
In my new video, I dive into how the Other Side actually communicates, beyond the clichés. I share:
How to tell the difference between imagination, intuition, and real guidance
How timing, emotion, and presence can be signs
Why sensitive and empathic people often feel guidance differently
This video is full of stories from my own life, the work I do with clients, and the subtle ways guidance shows up when we slow down enough to notice.
If you’ve ever wondered: “Was that really a sign?” or “Am I overthinking, or am I intuitive?”, this one’s for you.
And if it sparks a feeling of “I want support with this”, I currently have a few openings for 1:1 work, always happy to connect with those who feel called.

By Polly Green
“Come from the heart, the true heart, not the head. When in doubt, choose the heart. This does not mean to deny your own experiences and that which you have empirically learned through the years. It means to trust your self to integrate intuition and experience. There is a balance, a harmony to be nurtured, between the head and the heart. When the intuition rings clear and true, loving impulses are favored.”
- Brian Weiss, Messages from the Masters: Tapping Into the Power of Love

3 Excercises To Strengthen Your Intuition:
1. Ask yourself small inconsequential questions throughout your day .
Should I turn Right or Left?
Should I go first to the ATM or to the Flower Store?
Be unattached to the outcome.
Do it when you have extra time and don’t need to be efficient.
Be open to magical surprises
Be present
Follow the first impulse and see where it takes you.
2. Trust the signs.
Are things unfolding effortlessly?
Do you feel like you are pushing a boulder uphill?
Does your question get answered spontaneously by a friend you bumped in to?
Are there roadblocks and obstacles on your present course?
Have you received an unexpected invitation?
Has an idea you have never thought of pop in to your mind?
You will know it is your intuition if it takes you off your normal course.
Listen without analysing.
Intuition is not logical.
Intuition does not make sense.
Intuition is always love guiding you to your highest and best good.
You will not see the bigger picture.
You must trust.
3. Whole body YES or NO
Ask your body if it is for your highest good to say yes or no.
Learn to trust your body not your mind.
Know your neutral.
Get to know yourself internally.
Body Scan meditation
Take ten minutes each day to sit quietly and retreat in to your body.
Scan your self from head to toe, and from toe to head.
How does your body feel in neutral?
This must be done everyday for you to detect your neutral.
Does your whole body tense up when you are debating whether to go? This is a whole body NO.
Do you feel open and light in your body when your friend suggests going to the mountains? This is a whole body YES.
In summary, learning how to trust your intuition takes practice.
Asking yourself small questions through out your day and following the impulse, listening to your inner voice regardless of logic, trusting the signs, learning your neutral, and whole body YES and NO, will help strengthen your intuition.
Let me know in the comments how your intuition has helped you!
Namaste! - Polly
