Book excerpt: Many individuals have had their dreams and hopes in life shattered by physical or emotional trauma. While healing is critically important (and Dr. Ziegler has explored this process in his previous books), this work explores ways of moving beyond healing in order to experience a truly fulfilling life. It takes a close, critical look at many of our beliefs about human limitations and offers an undeniable message of hope--hope for those individuals who have paid such a high price for past abuse and trauma, and hope for our future and the possibility of reaching both our individual and collective human potential.--From publisher description.

Download or read book Beyond Healing written by Alice Worthington and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2019-10-17 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Beyond Healing, author Alice Worthington chronicles her continuing spiritual growth. With the benefit of time and a mature perspective, she re-examines the sources of her healing from childhood rape, detailed in her memoir, and describes how centering prayer, meditation, contemplation, dreams, and dreamwork inspire openness to new perspectives and further growth. The presidency of Donald Trump, and the #MeToo and #TimesUp movements in the broader environment provide validation to Worthington as she moves toward wholeness, employing centering prayer and dreamwork in the process. Many members of her dream group are members of the Jung Society and provide Carl Gustav Jung’s psychological concepts to the dreamwork. In addition, she shares that the daily meditations and books by Father Richard Rohr of the Center for Action and Contemplation in Albuquerque, New Mexico, have informed much of her spiritual growth. Beyond Healing recounts key dreams with accompanying dreamwork, demonstrating Worthington’s growth through her interpretation of these dreams. She thinks of the final dream in this memoir of growth as a mountaintop dream. Based on experience, she knows she won’t stay long on the mountaintop, but she will descend to continue her journey.

Download or read book Beyond Surgery written by Anita Hannig and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2017-04-24 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past few decades, maternal childbirth injuries have become a potent symbol of Western biomedical intervention in Africa, affecting over one million women across the global south. Western-funded hospitals have sprung up, offering surgical sutures that ostensibly allow women who suffer from obstetric fistula to return to their communities in full health. Journalists, NGO staff, celebrities, and some physicians have crafted a stock narrative around this injury, depicting afflicted women as victims of a backward culture who have their fortunes dramatically reversed by Western aid. With Beyond Surgery, medical anthropologist Anita Hannig unsettles this picture for the first time and reveals the complicated truth behind the idea of biomedical intervention as quick-fix salvation. Through her in-depth ethnography of two repair and rehabilitation centers operating in Ethiopia, Hannig takes the reader deep into a world inside hospital walls, where women recount stories of loss and belonging, shame and delight. As she chronicles the lived experiences of fistula patients in clinical treatment, Hannig explores the danger of labeling “culture” the culprit, showing how this common argument ignores the larger problem of insufficient medical access in rural Africa. Beyond Surgery portrays the complex social outcomes of surgery in an effort to deepen our understanding of medical missions in Africa, expose cultural biases, and clear the path toward more effective ways of delivering care to those who need it most.

Download or read book Beyond the Trauma Vortex written by Gina Ross and published by North Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2003 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Beyond the Trauma Vortex, Gina Ross proposes a collaboration between the media, trauma researchers, and helping officials in order to break the vicious cycle of trauma and violence. The media, Ross suggests, can use their tremendous influence to promote peace rather than violence and to heal wounded psyches, communities, and nations. Delving first into the destructive nature of the "trauma vortex" through a variety of individual and historical examples, Ross then offers her insight into an alternate, restorative "healing vortex." By focusing on the interrelatedness of personal and collective healing, the author makes a compelling case for why--and how--media professionals can play an influential role in effecting widespread healing for their viewers and for themselves.

Download or read book Moral Injury and Beyond written by Renos K. Papadopoulos and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-03-24 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Moral Injury and Beyond: Understanding Human Anguish and Healing Traumatic Wounds uniquely brings together a prominent collection of international contributors from the fields of psychiatry, psychology, philosophy, theology, military chaplaincy and acute crisis care to address the phenomenon of moral injury. Introduced in the 1990s to refer to a type of psychological trauma, experienced especially by soldiers who felt that their actions transgressed the expected moral norms, this innovative volume provides a timely update that progresses and redefines the field of moral injury. The ten ground-breaking essays expand our understanding of moral injury beyond its original military context, arguing that it can fruitfully be applied to and address predicaments most persons face in their daily lives. Approaching moral injury from different perspectives, the contributors focus on the experiences of combat veterans and other survivors of violent forms of adversity. The chapters address thought-provoking questions and topics, such as how survivors can regain their hope and faith, and how they can, in time, explore ways that will lead them to grow through their suffering. Exploring moral injury with a particular emphasis on spirituality, the early Church Fathers form the framework within which several chapters examine moral injury, articulating a new perspective on this important subject. The insights advanced are not limited to theoretical innovations but also include practical methods of dealing with the effects of moral injury. This pioneering collection will be essential resource for mental health practitioners and trainees working with people suffering from severe trauma. Due to its interdisciplinary nature, it will be useful not only to those academics and professionals engaged with moral injury but will be a source of inspiration for any perceptive student of the complexities and dilemmas of modern life, especially as it interfaces with issues of mental health and spirituality. It will also be invaluable to academics and students of Jungian psychology, theology, philosophy and history interested in war, migration and the impact of extreme forms of adversity.

Download or read book Defy Gravity written by Caroline Myss, Ph.D. and published by Hay House, Inc. This book was released on 2009-10-13 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times best-selling author Caroline Myss draws from her years as a medical intuitive to show that healing is not only physical; it is also a mystical phenomenon that transcends reason. Inspired by ordinary people who overcame a wide array of physical and psychological ailments—from rheumatoid arthritis to cancer—Caroline dove into the works of the great mystics to gain a deeper understanding of healing’s spiritual underpinnings. Based on these studies, she demonstrates how conventional and holistic medicine often fall short in times of need. Both systems rely upon a logical approach to curing illness when there is nothing reasonable about the emotional, psychological, or spiritual influences behind any ailment. Integral to this mystical healing approach is the engagement of the soul, which we experience through exploring our seven shadow passions, building an empowered inner self around our seven inherent graces, and learning how to work with the mystical laws that govern it. This knowledge holds the key to understanding what it means to defy gravity and break through the boundaries of ordinary thought. You can heal any illness. You can channel grace. And you can learn to live fearlessly.

Download or read book Moving Beyond Trauma The Roadmap to Healing from Your Past and Living with Ease and Vitality written by Ilene Smith and published by Lioncrest Publishing. This book was released on 2020-05-05 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you noticed that no matter how much time you spend in talk therapy, you still feel anxious and triggered? That is because talk therapy can keep you stuck in a pattern of reliving your stories, rather than moving beyond them. But, most of all, it's because trauma doesn't just reside inside your mind--much more importantly, it locks itself in other parts of your body. When left unresolved, that trauma continues to live there, impacting your life, your relationships, your sense of safety, and your ability to experience joy in very real ways. In Moving Beyond Trauma, Ilene Smith will introduce you to Somatic Experiencing, a body-based therapy capable of healing the damage done to your nervous system by trauma. She breaks down the ways in which trauma impacts your nervous system and walks you through a program designed to process trauma in a non-threatening way. You will discover a healing lifestyle marked by a deeper connection with yourself, those around you, and with everything you do.

Download or read book Beyond Harm written by Derek R. Brookes and published by . This book was released on 2019-05-13 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We have all been hurt by someone, in some cases very seriously. And we have all inflicted pain on someone else, even if it was unintended. The consequences have often been devastating, and continue to this day. We find ourselves 'stuck' in anger, fear, isolation, disbelief, bitterness, self-blame, denial, guilt, shame . . . the list is all too familiar. Our friends and family plead with us to 'move on' and 'put the past behind us'. But it's never that simple. There is no 'magic wand' that can instantly sweep away this kind of pain.So what can we do? How can we find some peace? Is it possible to heal from what has happened? Would some kind of punishment make a difference? Do we need to forgive? Would an apology help? How can we find a way out of this agonising hurt and negativity? Will it ever be possible to 'make things right'? 'Beyond Harm' explores all of these questions, and offers a way forward. The first Part looks at what it means to be wronged, why it hurts so much. It sets out an explanation for why we react to wrongdoing in the ways that we do, so many of which only cause us more suffering and pain. And it offers an alternative: a kind of 'justice' that can bring the healing and peace that we crave. This is a response that honours our moral values and acknowledges our common humanity. It is also evidence-based: it takes seriously how we actually think and feel about wrongdoing. The second Part draws on the first by exploring what it would take for this alternative to become a reality. It shows how it is possible to 'make things right' by using a tried and tested practice called 'restorative justice', and what is needed for this approach to be safe and effective.

Download or read book Beyond Gluten written by Sandi Star and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-12-15 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was written for the health-minded, frustrated, or curious person interested in gaining a better understanding of the health issues food intolerance causes and the story behind why today's gluten is toxic. It's for people who want to find a healthy way to go gluten free while at the same time gaining valuable insight of optimal nutrition in the healing transition. We include allergy friendly mouthwatering recipes and tips on converting recipes to allergy friendly. The connection between gluten intolerance and dairy intolerance often go hand in hand. With dairy affecting the large intestine and gluten affecting the small intestine, it makes sense to heal the body by eliminating both. We will talk about intolerance verses allergies and how food intolerance is not always a GI disorder but can be a condition that reacts systemically. Studies show 50 percent of people with celiac disease also have issues with dairy. In addition, only 8 percent heal on a gluten free diet alone. This is why it's so important to address the triggers and holistically focus on the underlying issues. Nutrition plays a critical role in the healing process. By making appropriate diet changes suggested in Beyond Gluten you will be able to manage chronic disorders and eliminate systemic reactions.
