Journal Without Words




For many people, journaling is a powerful tool for self-reflection, helping to capture and process thoughts, emotions, and experiences. But not everyone is a writer, and sometimes even for writers, words don't do the trick.


BioGraffs offers a fresh take on journaling that provides the benefits of reflection and insight—without requiring any writing at all.




BioGraffs is a hands-on, visual way to explore your thoughts and feelings, similar to journaling but using cubes to represent ideas and emotions. It’s a versatile tool that can serve people who already journal and want to switch things up, as well as those who aren’t drawn to traditional journaling but still want a way to understand themselves better.

Let’s explore how BioGraffs is like journaling and how it opens new doors for self-reflection, creativity, and growth.


1. A Different Way to “Download” Your Thoughts

One of the best things about journaling is that it allows you to get thoughts out of your head and onto paper, where you can see and make sense of them. BioGraffs works similarly—except instead of writing your thoughts down, you’re arranging them as visual representations. Each cube can represent a feeling, thought, person, or aspect of your life, allowing you to externalize your inner world in a concrete way.


For people who journal regularly, BioGraffs can provide a refreshing change of pace, letting you process things visually rather than through words. And if you’re someone who feels blocked by traditional journaling, BioGraffs is a judgment-free way to get your thoughts out without needing to find the “right” words.


2. A Hands-On Way to Reflect on Emotions

Journaling is often a deeply reflective activity, helping you make sense of complex emotions and see patterns in your life. BioGraffs offers this same benefit but takes a more experiential approach. By physically arranging and moving cubes, you’re engaging multiple senses, which can make self-reflection feel more immediate and accessible.


With BioGraffs, you can map out your emotions without having to describe them in detail. This can be especially freeing if words sometimes feel limiting or if certain feelings are hard to pin down. For avid journalers, BioGraffs adds a new dimension to emotional exploration, and for non-journalers, it provides an approachable way to start connecting with and understanding emotions.


3. Using Metaphor to Gain Clarity

In journaling, we often use metaphors to express feelings that are hard to put into words—feeling “weighed down” by stress, for example, or “stuck in a rut.” BioGraffs taps into these metaphors naturally, allowing you to arrange cubes to represent feelings in a visual, metaphorical way. Maybe you stack cubes to show how responsibilities are piling up or surround a central cube to show things that feel overwhelming.


This metaphorical approach gives both journalers and non-journalers a new way to gain insight and clarity. It helps you see relationships, connections, and hierarchies among your thoughts and emotions in ways that writing might not reveal as clearly.


4. Space for Perspective Without Getting Stuck in Words

While journaling can be great for diving deep into thoughts, it can sometimes lead to overthinking or spiraling around certain issues. BioGraffs takes a different approach by allowing you to step back and see your thoughts as a whole. Arranging and rearranging cubes encourages you to look at your emotions from new perspectives without getting too caught up in the details.


For regular journalers, BioGraffs can be a refreshing break, letting you gain perspective without diving deeply into analysis. And for those who find traditional journaling too intense or repetitive, BioGraffs provides a way to explore your inner world from a more balanced and detached point of view.


5. Accessible and Flexible Reflection for Everyone

One of the best things about BioGraffs is that it’s accessible to everyone, regardless of how “creative” or “artistic” you feel. With BioGraffs, you don’t need to worry about choosing the perfect words or crafting a well-written entry. It’s simply about arranging cubes in ways that feel meaningful to you.


Whether you’re an avid journaler looking to add a new tool to your self-reflection practice or someone who’s always felt that journaling wasn’t quite right for you, BioGraffs provides an approachable, flexible way to explore and express your inner world.

I think one of the great ways that BioGraffs can help is to illuminate the disconnect between couples. Really helping them really understand how differently people can view a specific experience.

I like being able to work with my clients in sessioni to explore the meanings of their BioGraffs, and also recommend the online version.​ The materials are versatile enough to use in a variety of ways depending on my clients needs
