On ‘My Journal Prompts’ hosts Patricia Wu, Jessica Reyes, and guest holistic psychologist Charlotte Lewis discuss about how words impact us emotionally, mentally, and physically.
Words Hold Power
They can wound or uplift. Hurtful words can damage self-esteem and linger for years. Language can be used to manipulate and shut down dialogue.
Childhood Words Matter
Negative language in childhood shapes our self-image. Safe, supportive homes help counterbalance hurtful experiences. As adults, unpick and challenge harmful words from your past.
Manage Hurtful Words
Negative words say more about the speaker than about you. Don’t let them become your truth. Analyze and challenge them.
