Trauma, Attachment and Family Permanence: Fear Can Stop You Loving - PDF
نویسندگان: Caroline Archer (editor), Alan Burnell (editor) خلاصه: Fostered and adopted children can present major challenges resulting from unresolved attachment issues and early traumatic experiences. In this much-needed book, the contributors provide a variety of complementary perspectives on the needs of these children and their families, focusing on ways of integrating attachment theory and developmental psychology into effective practice. Examining multiple aspects of work with children who are unable to live with their birth families, the book includes contributions on the assessment, preparation and support needs of children and families, attachment and the neurobiological effects of trauma, effective management of contact with birth families and developmental challenges in school settings. The use of creative arts therapies, alongside developmental reparenting strategies as part of a long-term attachment therapy 'package' are explored in some detail. A fictionalised family, used as a working example throughout Part 2, brings practical interventions to life: illustrating the Family Futures' inclusive approach, where adoptive and foster parents become pivotal members of the therapeutic team. In addition, contributions from real-life user families illustrate some of the challenges they face and demonstrate how the developmental attachment-based approach has worked for them. Bringing together a rich and innovative selection of ideas for adoption and fostering practice across the disciplines, this book will be a valuable resource for all involved in supporting substitute families.

The Minder Brain: How Your Brain Keeps You Alive, Protects You from Danger, and Ensures that You Reproduce - PDF
نویسندگان: Joe Herbert خلاصه: Ambition, genius, thought, imagination, love, hate, greed and, above all, consciousness ourselves as alive and as part of our world all this is somehow enabled by the brain. The brain is the person, and if it goes wrong, a person is ruined. This book is about part of what the brain does a role of which many of us are hardly aware, but one that has ensured, the survival of mankind. Despite famine, drought, wars, cold, infections and hostile environments, we survive as a species though not always as individuals. All this time, our brains have been coping with what fate throws at us a process that some call adaptation. How does the brain do it? How does it know what s needed? How does it enable us to provide that need? How much do we depend on our own brains, or on those of others? This book is different from other books on the brain. It deals with the brain s role in survival, rather than higher cognitive functions (such as language or thought). It describes the special part of the brain that keeps you alive: that makes you feel hungry when you need energy, makes you feel thirsty when you need water, drives you to reproduce so that your species survives, makes you fearful of things or individuals that might harm you, and defends you against adversity.

How to Make Anyone Fall in Love With You - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Leil Lowndes خلاصه: Lowndes is an impressive author. Pity she cannot be objective. For her it is not ok to go after someone significantly better looking than yourself. But it is ok to go after someone significantly richer than yourself. A typical chick bias. Men - better get advice from your brothers Clink, La Ruina or Valentine. They are more on your side. Her: "Undercover Sex Signals" are great though.

Being Me, Loving You: A Practical Guide to Extraordinary Relationships - PDF
نویسندگان: Marshall B. Rosenberg PhD خلاصه: After constantly reading and re-reading Non Violent Communication and the workbook, finding tons of valuable information in it and being able to put it into practice, I don't feel this bookLET gave me anything new. First I was unaware this was just a booklet and not a full book , until I got it. It may have declared that in the description but I didn't pay attention! Second, the format of using blurbs from various other participants, seminars and what not makes it very difficult to follow along. I had to stop and was not able to make it all the way through. I jsut had to reread the same passages two and three times just to understand them. That being said I am a college educated, well read individual therefore reading is not a challenge for me, but this booklet was. :-( I had very high expectations for this book after reading NonViolent Communication!

Your Brain and Your Self: What You Need to Know - PDF
نویسندگان: Jacques Neirynck, Laurence Garey (auth.) خلاصه: How does my brain work? Why am I conscious? Where is my memory? Is what I perceive around me reality or just an illusion? We all ask these questions, which we could sum up in a single question: Who am I? How is it that I have memories and that I feel I exist? What does it mean that my mind is free in time and space, and yet I am imprisoned in a body that is doomed to disappear? What happens to my mind when my body disappears? What are the risks of my suffering from a brain disease? Could my whole being eclipse because of a disease in which my body survives but my mind ceases to exist? What remedies are there? What hope does reasearch hold out? Recent discoveries about the brain allow us to ask such questions more pointedly, hoping to define more clearly the relations of the brain with the mind, of man with his body. This book is based on numerous discussions with specialists. It attempts to determine the state of the art. It is organized in chapters that can be read in continuity, but it is equally possible to discover the chapters in a different way.

What Do You Care What Other People Think?: Further Adventures of a Curious Character - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Richard P. Feynman, Ralph Leighton خلاصه: One of the greatest physicists of the twentieth century, Richard Feynman possessed an unquenchable thirst for adventure and an unparalleled ability to tell the stories of his life. "What Do You Care What Other People Think?" is Feynman’s last literary legacy, which he prepared as he struggled with cancer. Among its many tales—some funny, others intensely moving—we meet Feynman’s first wife, Arlene, who taught him of love’s irreducible mystery as she lay dying in a hospital bed while he worked nearby on the atomic bomb at Los Alamos. We are also given a fascinating narrative of the investigation of the space shuttle Challenger’s explosion in 1986, and we relive the moment when Feynman revealed the disaster’s cause by an elegant experiment: dropping a ring of rubber into a glass of cold water and pulling it out, misshapen.
Anger Management Best Practice Handbook: Controlling Anger Before it Controls You, Anger Management Proven Techniques and Excercises - PDF
Anger Management Best Practice Handbook: Controlling Anger Before it Controls You, Anger Management Proven Techniques and Excercises - PDF
نویسندگان: Jessalyn Woodruff خلاصه: This book covers all the Methods of Anger Management for a balanced approach to managing anger, which both controls the emotion and allows the emotion to express itself in a healthy way. Some descriptions of actions of anger management you'll learn to manage and control anger through activities within this book are: * Direct, such as not beating around the bush, making behaviour visible and conspicuous, using body language to indicate feelings clearly and honestly, anger directed at persons concerned. * Honorable, such as making it apparent that there is some clear moral basis for the anger, being prepared to argue your case, never using manipulation or emotional blackmail, never abusing another person’s basic human rights, never unfairly hurting the weak or defenseless, taking responsibility for actions. * Focused, such as sticking to the issue of concern, not bringing up irrelevant material. * Persistent, such as repeating the expression of feeling in the argument over and over again, standing your ground, self defense. * Courageous, such as taking calculated risks, enduring short term discomfort for long term gain, risking displeasure of some people some of the time, taking the lead, not showing fear of other’s anger, standing outside the crowd and owning up to differences, using self-protective skills. * Passionate, such as using full power of the body to show intensity of feeling, being excited and motivated, acting dynamically and energetically, initiating change, showing fervent caring, being fiercely protective, enthusing others. * Creative, such as thinking quickly, using more wit, spontaneously coming up with new ideas and new views on subjects. * Forgiving, such as demonstrating a willingness to hear other people’s anger and grievances, showing an ability to wipe the slate clean once anger has been expressed. * Listening, to what is being said to you. Anger creates a hostility filter, and often all you can hear is negatively toned. A common skill this book and most anger management programs teach is learning assertive communication techniques. Assertive communication is the appropriate use of expressing feelings and needs without offending or taking away the rights of others. It is typically started with the use of “I” statements followed by a need statement. For example, “I feel upset when you don't take my feelings into consideration when you talk about your past relationships. I hope you can be more thoughtful and know what you should and should not say the next time.” With regard to interpersonal anger for example, this book recommends that people try, in the heat of an angry moment, to see if they can understand where the alleged perpetrator is coming from. Empathy is very difficult when one is angry but it can make all the difference in the world. Taking the other person's point of view can be excruciating when in the throes of anger, but with practice it can become second nature. The main issue of anger management is that anger is regarded as an incorrect projection of the mind, so that insight can ultimately correct the mind and eliminate anger completely. This book helps you gain that insight.
