Write Yourself Happy BOOK

Do you want to #writeyourselfhappy?

Psychologists have shown that writing can support us through depression, anxiety, job loss, and even heartbreak… but what else goes right when we write?

Dr Megan’s book Write Yourself Happy: The Art of Positive Journalling is a guide to using eight of our most commonly experienced and life-affirming emotions in a journal: joy, gratitude, serenity, interest, hope, pride, awe, and love. It includes enjoyable exercises and real case studies to inspire us to shift our focus, positively navigate our lives, and put wellbeing into words.
