Brain Dump
Worry Journal
here’s how:
Thirty minutes (or more) before bed, do a brain dump. Write down your worries, fears, to-do’s and any troublesome experiences. If you like, add a column on the right side to note how you plan to deal with each concern.
Here’s Why:
Studies have shown that worry journaling reduces cortisol (stress hormone), alleviates anxiety, and diminishes PTSD symptoms. Just 15 minutes of journaling a day for four days can create benefits lasting up to eight months.
