Opening up

the healing power of confiding in others

Edición de la obra Opening up

Psychologist James W. Pennebaker has conducted controlled clinical research that sheds new light on the powerful mind-body connection. This book interweaves his findings with insightful case studies on secret-keeping, confession, and the hidden price of silence. Filled with encouragement, Opening Up explains : how writing about your problems can improve your health, how long-buried trauma affects the immune system, why it's never too late to heal old emotional wounds, when self-disclosure may be risky-and how to know whom to trust.
