In this episode, we dive deep into the Expressive Writing Paradigm, exploring how storytelling and writing can serve as powerful tools for emotional healing and overcoming trauma. Inspired by the groundbreaking work of Dr. James Pennebaker, we discuss the science behind how expressive writing helps individuals process difficult emotions, reduce stress, and even improve physical health.
Today, I am joined by Emerald Norman, and we explore key studies demonstrating how writing can alleviate symptoms of PTSD, depression, and anxiety. Discover how simple writing exercises can transform trauma into a narrative that promotes resilience, emotional regulation, and long-term healing.
