Welcome to my channel Good Habits! This is Regan, your podcast ____.

Today, I’m going to talk about a way of ____ the day that many people, including me, find enormously useful.

It’s a kind of ____ called “the morning pages.”

____ is no age at which it is too late to form this habit.

I started eight years ____ as a high school student, and that’s why today’s episode is especially for my teenage subscribers.

The morning ____ are three pages of “free writing,” ideally done first thing in the morning.

The concept is simple. Get up every morning, pick up a pen and a notebook, and write ____ crosses your mind until you have filled three pages.

The technique was originally developed to help writers and artists overcome a loss of creativity, but ____ can use it to create a better life.

There is no right or ____ way to write your morning pages, but there are two rules.

First, ____ judge your writing as good or bad.

These pages are ____ to be a “brain cleansing,” so don’t worry about writing correctly.

Second, keep your writing ____ private.

It is important for ____ to write freely and honestly.

You’re even advised ____ to read your writing yourself for weeks.

Now, ____ me share the experiences of some people I interviewed.

David, a chef and kitchen manager, who has been writing morning pages for ____ years, says:

My job ____ to be very stressful.

When I started writing morning ____, I just wrote a lot of complaints about my hard life.

Later, I began to ask questions, like “What would make my life easier ____?”

“How ____ I improve my recipes?”

Sometimes, I keep asking questions until I ____ a sort of “click moment.”

It feels ____ a door opening to great ideas.

Nowadays, I feel less stressed, enjoy my job more, and am more ____.

Now, let’s listen to Yuna, a high school ____:

When I started this exercise ____ year, I simply wrote random thoughts like this:

I’m sleepy. A slight ____ starting.

I need to finish the math ____ today …

I don’t ____ what more to write now.

But soon I found I had deeper and ____ thoughts.

Now, I ____ start by writing about today’s tasks or worries.

After that, I write about my ____ and how to move towards them.

I ____ come up with great plans and a clear sense of purpose to start the day.

____ importantly, I’m much happier than before.

I can ____ relate to these two people because their experiences are similar to mine.

____ Yuna, I started this journaling during my first year of high school.

At that time, I felt lost, stressed, and unsure about the future, and it ____ easy for me to concentrate.

____ I first tried writing three daily pages, I didn’t expect to stick to it.

But I did, and it ____ my life!

Releasing my feelings onto paper ____ morning helped relieve my emotional tension.

I ____ more inner peace, which improved my schoolwork performance.

Like ____, I asked many questions, for instance,

“Why was I so ____ yesterday?”

“Why are things less fun these ____?”

Then, I started raising more ____ ones:

“What could make me happier ____ now?”

“What is my ____ future? Can I reach it? How?”

Answering ____ questions showed me what kind of person I was and what my needs, values, passions, and talents were.

More importantly, I came to know ____ I truly wanted!

I remembered my childhood dreams of being a ____, songwriter, and radio host.

Gradually, vague ideas became clear ____.

Years later, here I am, a ____ podcaster and vlogger!

I’ve also published a book and a music ____.

My morning pages, which I still write every ____, have given me the drive and ideas to achieve these aims.

Dear subscribers, will you try ____ your morning pages, too?

You never know what creative energy or ideas you have until you ____ exploring.

Don’t be a ____, though.

If you miss a few days, simply ____ your notebook and start again!

The ultimate aim is to ____ your mental health and help you lead a happier, more creative life.
