About this listen

Regular, systematic writing exercises, like those in this book, can be used to improve your creative thinking, your problem solving skills, and your physical and mental health. If you want to boost your brain power, then this book is like acquiring a second brain. People who write on a regular basis, using the kinds of exercises described in this book, create better lives for themselves than they had before they used this writing approach.

Writing can change lives! If you are struggling with emotional problems, it is normally best to see a counsellor, psychologist or psychotherapist, to get some help with your problems. One of the reasons that this is important is that, having your emotional pain witnessed, and validated, by a healing person, is hugely therapeutic. However, it is obvious that many people cannot afford to resolve all of their psychological problems through the relatively expensive processes of counselling and psychotherapy. And many people are so sensitive about their problems that they would find it hard to trust a professional helper in a face-to-face situation. Therefore, it may often be necessary to turn to self-directed writing therapy.

This book will help you to learn how to write out your concerns - your worries, problems, emotional difficulties, life plans, trials and tribulations - so that they can be clarified, digested, re-framed, and subjected to processes of problem solving, decision making, and – if successful – filing them away in non-active ‘memory files’ which no longer trouble you. This has been shown, in scientific research, to resolve problems of depression, stress, and other emotional difficulties, and to improve immune functioning, creativity and personal productivity. And this book will also help counsellors and therapists to introduce their clients to this most helpful process of self-management and self-therapy, by integrating elements of reflective and expressive writing into their face-to-face counselling processes.
