I haven't tried journaling but I found Your Life, Your Story: A Guided Keepsake Journal Capturing Memories, Moments and Milestones by Ravina M Chandra such a great opportunity to do this. This book offers a great experience in exploring more about yourself by journaling your thoughts, life experiences and lessons you've learned about yourself as you grow up. I love how raw this book is and how genuine it is to help you self-reflect and just be grateful for your life. Through this book I learned the art of expressing my thoughts. I also felt grateful that I was able to reminisce my past and look back how progressive I am when it comes to my goals and aspirations. This was such a book full of positivity and it makes me appreciate life more.

A must-read guide!
I came across “Your Life, Your Story” the moment I needed the most. I found Ravina M. Chandra’s guide very enlightening.
This is a book that will help people to retrospect and think about the past, the present and the future. There are interesting stories and quotations that make readers think about how they live life. It’s a guidebook that requires attention and eagerness to question yourself and answer. By doing so, it would be easier to feel at ease with your past and keep on working in your present.
I think that the idea of this journal is simple and truly practical to visualize life from a different perspective. It’s concise and simple but will leave readers a lot to think about. It’s highly recommended.

“Your Life, Your Story” is not a story book, but a guided journal that the author Ravina Chandra created because she could not find the perfect journal for herself to write down all her treasured memories. Now she is sharing that guided diary with lots of leading questions and blanks for her readers to fill in. The book also briefly contains her own life story, as well as suitable and inspiring quotes.

Starting with a chapter on “facts about me” and ending with a bucket list, my favorite chapter is the seventh one in which one can relate one’s milestones, celebrations and lists. Each chapter ends with blank lines to fill in additional notes. This is a great gift. It is also a wonderful book to treat yourself to.

Your Life, Your Story is an original and thought-provoking book created by Ravina M. Chandra. The idea behind this work is to get readers to reflect about their life and give them a space where they can take the time to think about themselves, to evaluate without judgement what they have done and all the things they have to look forward to in the future. The book is composed of short and insightful ideas, thoughts and reflections by the author and each of them prompting a whole series of questions they are meant to be answered by the readers, in a way of helping them write about their own lives. It is said that journaling is a great way of clearing our minds and changing our lives for the better. With this book, I will certainly give it a try.

“Your Life, Your Story” by Ravina M. Chandra is a journal for readers to complete with their own feelings and thoughts. In this original book, readers will find personalized and detailed questions to answer that will lead them to write their life story. It starts from birth until the golden years including childhood, teenage years, adulthood and even a space to write a bucket list.
This journal is a useful and interesting guide to write your autobiography and to reflect upon your own life. The aim of the author is to raise awareness of how important each of us is and how unique every person is. I found the book very helpful and thought-provoking. Truly recommend it!

I have always wanted to start a journal, as I have found that the act of writing can be meditative and therapeutic, helping to reduce stress and promote relaxation. But for some reason, I have never seemed to have the consistency to do it until I found this incredible book!

I think this journal was well thought-out, and I can tell that the author has great organizational skills, as she has organized this book in a perfect way.

Writing in this amazing journal has allowed me to reflect on my thoughts, emotions, and experiences. I recommend “Your Life, Your Story”, to anyone searching for a safe place to explore their emotions!

This is a great idea for readers that want to start journaling because it is a very unique way to do it. I find the questions in each chapter to really help dig deep and let everything out. It is definitely therapeutic for me and in the chapter about teenagers' years and student life there were a lot of questions that made me reflect on a lot of good things that I thought I forgot but taking the time to write and having a written guide is a really good combo to do that.
To sum up, this is a great guide to have at all times, it is a great gift for someone who enjoys writing.

Wow, unexpected surprise here. Thoughtful questions send a person on a journey of self-reflection as well as recollection. I don't typically give much thought to who I am on a daily basis, rather consider myself simple in thoughts and actions, however, here we find out just how much we actually know and feel. I think the scope of this book could be expanded to not only include self but also a significant other to share in asking / answering these questions. A fun activity in which I also enjoyed finding out about the author as well as inspirational quotes. Amazingly insightful!

As a mom of two littles, I have been wanting to write down details of my childhood. This book is perfect for that! I also love her writing style and enjoy the inserts she writes at the start of each section.

I would highly recommend this book!
