Feeling a “loss of control” in your life can be debilitating and the cause of adverse health events. Divorce, separation, break up and job loss are all likely to a feeling of “loss of control.” On this episode of the podcast we first explain the negative mental and body health impact of perceived loss of control. We then explain how the power of your written words allows you to gain perceived control. Finally, we describe a method of reflective journaling you can use to take back control.
