The act of writing clears the subconscious and allows us to switch our nervous system over to the Green Zone where calm and wellness preside. Studies show when people write about emotionally difficult events or feelings for just twenty minutes at a time over three or four days, their immune system’s functioning increases.

When you want some outcome, pull a note pad journal out and write to the universe what it is you want. The simple act of writing down an outcome right before you start an activity flips you to the Green Zone so you are responsive and mentally clears anxiety, worry, and any negative thoughts. You can use this technique before meetings, events, speaking engagements, anytime you want to get focused quickly.

The idea behind this simple journal is to get the universe on your side. Simply take the notebook and write to the universe what you want to happen. Once you write the note, tear the entry off and throw it out if you like. This is your straight communication to God or Universe for guidance. It will put you in the Green Zone state so you can respond to challenges instead of reacting to them. The simple act of writing it down switches you over from being stressed, to being in the now.
