Hi Everyone,
I thought you would find this article helpful:
http://www.thehealthymind.com/2012/11/27/are-negative-thoughts-bothering-you-just-throw-them-away/
Researchers at my alma mater (Ohio State University) found that simply the act of writing down negative thoughts on paper - and then literally throwing them away in the trash - helped to reduce the presence of those thoughts in our mind!
So much has been written about the benefit of journaling, especially when it comes to PPD/TMS (Sarno, Schubiner, etc). But perhaps this exercise may be a helpful part of your PPD/TMS work.
I hope you find the information worthwhile.
Kindly,
Dr. Zafirides
