THERAPEUTIC WRITING AND EMOTIONAL HEALING IN PREETI SHENOY’S WAKE UP! LIFE IS CALLING AND LIFE IS WHAT YOU MAKE IT
Therapeutic writing has increasingly been recognized as a meaningful way to process emotional distress and develop self-awareness. This paper examines how Preeti Shenoy presents writing as a tool for emotional healing in Wake Up! Life Is Calling and Life Is What You Make It. Using close textual reading, the study analyses how the protagonists engage in personal writing practices such as journaling and letter-writing to confront internal conflicts. The paper argues that Shenoy’s narratives portray writing not merely as expression, but as a structured process of emotional understanding, acceptance, and recovery. By situating these narratives within the broader idea of expressive writing, the study highlights how literature reflects and reinforces writing as a practical method of psychological healing.
