Rational & Study Design

Why I created this challenge:

Studies show that journaling can help manage anger and stress, yet many don't practice. Social media buzzes with quick fixes, but none are scientifically backed. This challenge combines the credibility of science with the accessibility of social media. We need to test if a simple, 10-minute daily journaling practice can make a measurable difference in anger and stress levels. It's time we turn the chatter into action and find out the truth.

My Objective for You:

The goal is simple yet powerful: to reduce your anger and stress levels within 30 days. Through this challenge, you'll engage in a daily practice of writing about your feelings, which is proven to help manage these emotions. This isn't just another social media trend, it's a scientifically backed approach to improving mental health.

Aims & Objectives:

This challenge aims to provide evidence for the efficacy of journaling as a tool for managing anger and stress. The objective is to see a measurable reduction in these emotions after 30 days of consistent practice.

Significance & Impact:

If successful, this challenge can provide a simple, accessible, and scientifically supported method for managing anger and stress. However, it's important to remember that journaling is not a cure-all and may not work for everyone. Regardless, the potential impact on mental health is significant and worth investigating.
