Expressive writing springs from the writer's experience, from their past and present life, from the future they imagine. Written in the author's own terms, it tends to bridges between thought and emotion, between reason and intuition, between idea and action. It lies halfway between literary creation and the social sciences, and takes multiple forms: diaries, poems, autobiographical accounts, song lyrics, and fragments of ideas and thoughts.
Expressive writing is democratic and accessible: no previous knowledge is required, and the necessary materials are inexpensive and easy to find. Studies show that their benefits for physical and emotional health can be profound, in many cases transformative.
