How Writing 300 Words a Day Clears My Mind


It might not sound like much—just 300 words a day—but making the time to write a short blog post every day has honestly done wonders for my mind.


As a parent, my days are full. Full of noise, emotions, mess, routines, and the constant feeling of being needed. It’s beautiful and chaotic. But somewhere in the middle of that, I found myself craving a little space that was just mine. That’s when I started writing daily posts—nothing fancy, nothing long, just 300 honest words.


It became more than a habit. It became a release.


Some days I write about parenting wins or struggles. Other times, I talk about random thoughts, things I’ve learned, or moments that made me pause. Sometimes I don’t even know what I’m going to write until I start typing. But by the time I hit 300 words, I always feel lighter.


There’s something so freeing about pouring your thoughts onto the page—even if no one else reads them. It helps me process the day, reflect on how I’m really feeling, and reconnect with myself beyond the roles I play.


It’s not about being perfect. It’s not about going viral. It’s just about showing up for myself, one small post at a time.


So if your mind feels cluttered or overstimulated (because let’s be honest, most of ours do), I can’t recommend this enough. 300 words. No pressure. Just you and your thoughts.


You might be surprised at how much peace it brings.
