"Letting go (through writing and/or journaling) helps free us from the negative impact unexpressed emotions can have," Angela Lunde. www.MayoClinic.com Alzheimer's Caregiving Newsletter.
In her latest newsletter, Ms. Lunde states that writing, whether in a blog or journal, is helpful to deal with the emotions that accompany caregiving. Many psychologists would agree that appropriate expression of feelings is good for one's mental health. That is one reason I write this blog; to facilitate my own mental health and to provide accurate and supportive information to other caregivers. Together we can be of support to each other and experience more health and joy in our own lives.
Happy New Year.
