1 simple act changes your mental state
Experts suggest that the simple act of writing, from journal entries to emails, can help change your mental state. Writing helps you process trauma, manage emotions, and reframe painful experiences by engaging parts of the brain related to memory and decision-making. Writing things down also calms the amygdala, the brain area that triggers fear, and engages the prefrontal cortex for problem-solving.
