Shining a light on mental health with journaling

There are a variety of types of journals

May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and a Detroit native is helping others through her line of journals.

Candace Cox-Wimberley is the founder of “I Am a Genius” journals, which are designed to encourage self-reflection, mindfulness, and mental clarity.

Cox-Wimberley explained that she started by creating a career journal to help young people prepare for life after college or high school.

“I knew it was important to be able to give them a space to journal their thoughts without being judged by their friends or their parents on what they wanted to do with their lives,” she said.

Since then, Cox-Wimberley has created various other journals to help people.

“Journaling, I feel is for everybody,” she said.
