On the surface, writing down your thoughts doesn\u2019t seem like a way to care for yourself. But time and again, it\u2019s been proven that a daily writing practice can transform your life (even if you\u2019re not a writer!). That\u2019s what our next guest, author and entrepreneur Allison Fallon, shows us. As she researched her new book The Power of Writing It Down, Allison discovered that writing can help you change the way you think about a situation, tapping into an entirely new part of your brain that helps you process your thoughts without so much emotion. As Allison walked through painful divorce, she found that writing her story down and asking herself more questions took her from center to spectator, which helped her see how to move her life forward a bit more clearly. Allison reminds us that when you change the story you tell yourself about yourself, you change your life. And no matter how big or small your voice may be, your experience matters and your voice needs to be heard.    * * * Breathe life into your soul and find your God-given power with Nancy\u2019s Called to Confidence 20-day guide.
