A new study found that teens who imagined positive outcomes for stressful situations reported lower levels of anxiety and distress than those who did not. The study also found that teens with difficulty generating mental images had more negative emotions.

Your mind can shape your body, according to a new study. Researchers found that people who imagined themselves exercising had stronger muscles than those who did not. This shows that mental imagery can physically affect the body and may help people improve their health and performance.

"Many writers say they can actually hear the voices of their characters – here's why" ✒️

"Over 60% of the 181 participants said they heard their characters’ voices, and over 60% said their characters sometimes acted of their own accord."

Very cool survey study on mental auditory imagery during the creative writing process.
