Download or read book Disturbed by Mind and Spirit written by Gavin Knight and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2009-04-09 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set in the specific context of a culturally diverse inner urban parish where mental health needs are high and the previous incumbent was murdered. The book reflects on issues of mental health, loss and trauma which are common to all parishes. It offers a unique exploration of how mental health in a parish setting can be addressed via the dual perspectives of pastoral theology and clinical psychology. It is constructed in pairs of chapters, with each theological chapter followed by its psychological counterpart. Thus psychological thinking is used to reflect upon the liturgical pattern of the Eucharist as a means of deepening our awareness of and response to mental health and trauma. It aims: - to help raise the profile of mental health issues present in parish life - to encourage individuals to reflect on their own personal stories, ideas and belief systems, and how these might impact on their ministry and/or discipleship in the context of mental health - to help recognise and acknowledge that mental health is often a stigmatized, forbidden and misunderstood subject; one which has no clear-cut answers, but which challenges our core selves and requires us, if we are to respond to it authentically, to recognise our own strengths and limitations, our areas of expertise, and the times when we need to seek additional help or support - to offer hope for the renewal of parish life in general, not necessarily through specific strategies and solutions but through a deepened understanding of our shared stories of brokenness and healing.

Book excerpt: The Ugli Fruit: Tapping the Inner Spirit for Greater Mental Health is a reminder that we are more than our outer layer projections. It is also a reminder for therapists that we must minister to the spirit to facilitate good mental health. If spiritual development is not considered by client or therapist, there is little healing and no fundamental and lasting change. No matter our outward reflections, no matter our life circumstances, we are all made in the image of all mighty God. We have a prestigious heritage and birthright that grants us access to the kingdom of Godright here on Earth. God has not bestowed upon any of us a disturbed mind, discord within our families or disharmony within the world. God has granted us peace, and there is a spiritual prescription for peace: faith in and obedience to God. The Ugli Fruit: Tapping the Inner Spirit for Greater Mental Health clarifies the importance of spiritual health to overall well-being.

Book excerpt: A Spiritual Journey - A Love Story - A Search for Truth An extraordinary spiritual encounter has left psychotherapist Tessa Lynne in a quandary. Her intuition tells her to believe--her logical mind wants proof. A series of surreal events unfolds, forcing her to question her judgment and to examine her beliefs. Each time she thinks she knows the truth of her experience, she is tested again. Tessa is told of our life purpose, about life after death, and of a long-lost destiny, named Michael. Then she learns that he is dying. She reaches out to him spiritually and he sees her in a dream. They have visions of past lives, are surrounded by The Light. Is it possible that Michael might survive? Could their destinies be restored? Who holds that power? Events predicted to Tessa in 1995 have since come to pass. What she was told then resonates more strongly now, more than twenty years later. Discover why she was approached, learn more about the Invisible Choir, and use her story to reflect on the course of your own life journey.

Download or read book Absence of Mind written by Marilynne Robinson and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2010-05-25 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this ambitious book, acclaimed writer Marilynne Robinson applies her astute intellect to some of the most vexing topics in the history of human thought—science, religion, and consciousness. Crafted with the same care and insight as her award-winning novels, Absence of Mind challenges postmodern atheists who crusade against religion under the banner of science. In Robinson’s view, scientific reasoning does not denote a sense of logical infallibility, as thinkers like Richard Dawkins might suggest. Instead, in its purest form, science represents a search for answers. It engages the problem of knowledge, an aspect of the mystery of consciousness, rather than providing a simple and final model of reality.By defending the importance of individual reflection, Robinson celebrates the power and variety of human consciousness in the tradition of William James. She explores the nature of subjectivity and considers the culture in which Sigmund Freud was situated and its influence on his model of self and civilization. Through keen interpretations of language, emotion, science, and poetry, Absence of Mind restores human consciousness to its central place in the religion-science debate.
