Pennebaker writing protocol
Topic
The Pennebaker writing protocol, also known as the expressive writing paradigm, is a therapeutic technique developed by psychologist James W. Pennebaker in the late 1980s. It involves writing continuously for 15 to 20 minutes over several consecutive days about one's deepest thoughts and feelings regarding a traumatic or highly stressful life event. Research has shown that this structured form of expressive writing can lead to significant improvements in both physical and psychological health.
