Opening up by writing it down

"Expressing painful emotions is hard--yet it can actually improve our mental and physical health. Distinguished psychologist James W. Pennebaker has spent decades studying what happens when people take just a few minutes to write about deeply felt personal experiences or problems.

It features extensive new information on specific health benefits, as well as when the approach may not be helpful"--
