136 — This Journaling Exercise Will Change Your Brain in 4 Days
Manage episode 435683459 series 3475432
Journaling provides a long list of benefits to your brain and your body. Research shows that following a specific writing protocol can rewire your brain in just 15 to 20 minutes of writing for four days. This journaling exercise is equally effective as therapy for some people in managing symptoms associated with depression and PTSD.
Some of the things I share are:
- Why expressive writing is so beneficial
- How it contributes to the neuroplasticity of your brain
- The structured approach to writing and how it works
- The real-life impact of this journaling protocol
- How to handle memories that are too emotionally charged
- What you can realistically expect if you journal for four days
