About Rowing Home
Rowing Home celebrates the ancient practice of journal writing.
A journal is both a simple record of days and a powerful tool for mental health—pen as oar.
A journal writing practice is an ongoing conversation with ourselves, inviting us to listen, to trust, to remember.
Marks on a page signal our deepest yearnings and daily observations, creating breadcrumb trails to who we are.
While often a solitary practice, journaling connects us to a greater whole—a journal-keeper lineage across centuries of inked pages testifying to desire, reflection, and discovery.
Rowing Home is a place to celebrate self-recovery and dedicate ourselves to this practice.
“My mission is to raise awareness about Journal writing as an affordable, portable, and accessible mental health tool.”
