#225 Journaling, narrative psychology & romanticising everything

In this episode, I’m exploring journaling, narrative psychology, and the idea of romanticising everyday life.

This winter I returned to journaling in a more visual way and began noticing how colour, collage and imagery can reveal emotional patterns that text alone sometimes hides.

From there I became curious about narrative psychology, the idea that we understand our lives through the stories we tell about our experiences. Research suggests that consciously revisiting and reshaping these narratives can support healing, especially for trauma survivors and neurodivergent people.

I also reflect on a recent conversation about romance and how I realised that I want to be romantic with everyone I love, not only in the context of partnership.

Hi, I’m Yarrow and this is my local river. 

I’m a maker, grief companion and tarot reader living on the East coast of Scotland. 

I facilitate creative projects and gentle rituals for seasons of loss, make handmade textile magic and host the Grief Glimmers podcast. My wish is to change the culture around grief and death so that we can explore these experiences as gateways into a softer, more embodied life.
