\nExpressive Writing <\/p>\n
For people with disabilities, life can be filled with frustration, anger and disappointment. There are many healthy methods to deal with these emotions
\nand release them. Some of these ways are drawing, playing sports, exercising and meditation.
\nOne excellent tool is called expressive writing.
\nExpressive writing is a form of therapy that involves
\nwriting about one\u2019s feelings and thoughts about a
\nparticular topic. It is usually done continuously for
\nfifteen to twenty minutes at a time, where you just jot whatever comes to your mind.
\nExpressive writing has been proven to improve
\nyour immune system since you are releasing your
\nnegative energy. It can also improve lung function and decrease headaches by returning to a peaceful state. More importantly, it reduces everyday stress and anxiety.
\nExpressive writing works well when you write about what\u2019s upsetting you and helps you explore your feelings. It can be done privately, something that you do not need to share.
\nAs a writer, I have always written from my heart. It is a way to use my voice in a positive way to help and inspire others. I have always written my feelings and thoughts to help me find my way through my journey. It is my passion and purpose.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
