Synopsis

Do you want to reduce stress, lower your blood pressure, boost your immune system, or just feel happier? All you need to do is pick up a pen. The Writing Rx is a warmly written, research-based guide for achieving the measurable physical and mental health benefits of expressive writing in your own life. Eichenmuller provides current evidence to support each of her accessible, easy-to-follow activities in a variety of genres, from journaling to memoirs to creative writing.

Quite simply, The Writing Prescription is a joy to read even before you pick up your own pen and put words to paper. -- Dr Jane Park Cutler, PhD, MSW

No matter what your current relationship with writing and language is, this book will nurture and encourage you. -- Michael Glaser, PhD, Poet Laureate of Maryland, 2004-2009

I’ve always found writing to be a therapeutic activity. Now I have the scientific studies to back up my theory. -- Cindy L. Freeman, Author
