I highly recommend it! Every now and then

Reviewed in Australia on 2 March 2017

Verified Purchase

This is a book that I would share with people that I care about. I highly recommend it!

Every now and then, I feel this compulsion in my heart to share my experiences, from little stories about my favourite books or movies to something a bit deeper like my beliefs and spiritual journey. After spending some time to put my thoughts together about whatever was on my mind and after I had written about it; whether I shared it or not, I felt a release from that heavy feeling in my chest.

Through this book, I realized that it was part of the process of releasing my emotional burden which often held me back from moving on to other important tasks.

The author says in the book that writing therapy is not just for people who enjoy writing, but for anybody who has something to let go from their heart. While writing about our sources of anger, anxiety and other emotional burdens we carry on daily basis, the healing process is on!

I have thoroughly enjoyed reading Freedom Writing by Suzanne Strong. I experience a fair amount of stress in my life and have done for many years. I am so pleased to have discovered this book and have now began to implement the techniques into my life. I am excited as to how it will help me now and hopefully even more so into the future as I look back on my past and remember certain events that perhaps I don't feel ready to discuss with others but might see it as beneficial to feel like I am sharing these with others. I highly recommend this book for those who suffer from stress, anxiety, depression and any other mental illness as well as for those who are looking for a way to get in touch with their inner thoughts and emotions.

A very insightful and enjoyable book!
I highly recommend for anyone who has gone through a traumatic or stressful time in their lives and is looking for a way to heal. This book not only gives you valuable steps in order to start your own writing therapy but tells of others who have done the same. This book has personally encouraged me to start my own writing therapy and I have recommendedthis book to my family and friends.

There is always damage.

Reviewed in Australia on 7 March 2017

Verified Purchase

I thought I had nothing to free myself from when I was recommended to this book. I've realized everyone has damage from ghosts of their past. I thought inner strength came from picking up those ghosts, shoving them in your back pocket and moving forwards. I never thought to ever look at them again or even evict the burdon of them. You can be sooo much stronger and happier with a lighter load. So glad I found this book, worth 1000 times the amount , well done and thankyou to the author.

I cannot recommend this book enough

Reviewed in Australia on 7 March 2017

I cannot recommend this book enough. The lessons and help that I received are invaluable, the techniques used are easy to apply, but the deeply moving experience was unexpected and provided complete release from issues that were buried. This book helped me so much and the potential for it to help people coming out of trauma,or a very stressful situation is enormous. I highly recommend this book.

This Might Benefit Others, Especially Men

Reviewed in Canada on 10 December 2019

I’ve been writing, as therapy my whole life so this concept was not new to me. I do agree with the author that it might benefit others, especially men.

Some good thoughts, but could use another edit

Reviewed in the United States on 24 January 2019

Verified Purchase

To view writing therapy as a new concept would be ridiculous. Anyone who writes already knows it's therapeutic qualities.
The author even states this at the beginning, yet continues as though it it is something new.

Ok so for those people who think it it is new, I continued reading. Anytime I purchase a book I expect to get something for the money. Truthfully, the only thing that I found useful was a small section at about 70% where we are given hands on practical exercises to help ourselves.

The book is repetitive, so if you think you read that same sentence before, you aren't crazy - you did. In one instance the exact sentence said the same way appeared on the same page only a paragraph down. This, and some typos would lead me to believe that another edit would be of be great benefit for future versions. All in all, some good thoughts for those who need prompting to write down feelings.

An eye-opening guide on the benefits of writing therapy

Reviewed in the United States on 18 May 2020

Verified Purchase

Evidently, writing therapy has been around awhile. I was not aware of it. Learning about writing therapy has been a new experience for me.

All of us at some point in our lives have experienced conflicts, stress, hurt or betrayal, wouldn’t you agree? Almost anybody could benefit from the information in this book.

I agree with the author, Suzanne Strong, when she says that most of us are unable to express our true deepest emotions when speaking to someone about our problems. Often, we censor ourselves when communicating with others.

Expressive writing therapy is the act of writing down deep emotional issues or events in our lives. Some of the basics include being totally honest with yourself, don’t worry about grammar, write it down on paper, no computers, and no one needs to see it. No audience! What you put down on paper is between you and you only.

I found it interesting that the author feels men can benefit the most from the information in this book. I can believe that because men tend to think that they must be strong and in control,and therefore are less likely to open-up about their problems.

Being a baby-boomer, I was glad to see that writing helps your cognitive skills, keeps the brain sharp, and engages your motor skills.

You will find exercises to deal with whatever problems you are having in your life. I will be working on the exercises and questions under the non-fiction/journaling form of therapy.

The author is well educated and has many accolades. But, more important is that she writes from her own experience.

The book is easy to read and understand. You will find some repetitiveness throughout the book. I still gave it five stars.

A Potentially Life-Changing Concept

Reviewed in the United States on 9 December 2018

Verified Purchase

Full disclosure – I am a self-avowed personal development / self-help junkie. Life has always been good - I just enjoy doing what I can to be a better version of myself.

So I was a bit skeptical at first, because I’m not so sure I actually need any type of “therapy.”

This is me, dialoging with myself: “So I’ve had a great life. I’ve made a decent living. I’ve got a great wife and kids. I’m happy most of the time except when I’m sleeping, and then I’m asleep. So why would I need any type of therapy at all, including writing therapy?”

The answer is in my introduction above – as a guy who wants to improve himself, certainly there were/are areas in my life that could have been better. Maybe I didn’t always do my best job as a parent and husband. I remember clearly not giving 100% in school, because I had the brains to get by without working hard. Maybe life dealt me a couple of blows and I’ve just hidden those memories. And whether I know it or not, those old hidden memories are probably blocks to my living an even better life today.

For someone else, it could be about addressing an issue they are living with currently. For me, it’s about taking some of the things in my life that maybe didn’t go right, or maybe I didn’t handle as well as I could have, and changing the script. How powerful is that – I can simply re-write the scripts of parts of my life, make them flow better and end better, so today’s version of me functions better because of the newfound knowledge that I’ve ALWAYS functioned better.

The Good: Clear, concise, makes its point, and presents some absolutely unique principles. Well, the author cites other books on the same subject, but this one is the first I’ve read and the last I need.

The Bad: Because this was such a new and fascinating topic to me, there really wasn’t anything to not like.

Recommendation: If you are facing any type of challenges in your life, you should consider this approach and this book will help. If your life is generally good and you have no challenges, go back and read my personal observations – this book can help you no matter how things are going in your life.

There's a lot of value in this book

Reviewed in the United States on 30 August 2018

Verified Purchase

There's much to gain from reading this book and help to be had. What I particularly liked was the part about words and the fact that once you put a word out there, there's no taking it back. Words create reactions, realities, and can do harm but they can also do the world of good. Freedom writing is therapeutic and the best part about it is it's safe; no one has to see what you have to say for it to benefit your heart and soul. Like breathing, drinking water, and listening to soothing music, some of the best things in life are free. Add freedom writing to this list.
