Stop journaling on your phone. Buy yourself a notebook and write by hand. That will slow down that easy/impulsive access.
I think you asking him not to read is just putting the responsibility on him, and you'll still wonder if maybe, just maybe, he read it anyway. I don't think that will really fix anything. YOU need to be the one to make the change if this is a change you want to make.
It's great that you are emailing less frequently. That shows you are making the progress you wanted to make along these lines.
