Emeka Anyiam, a licensed marriage and family therapist, focuses on the stages of life as defined by famous ego psychologist Erik Erickson, elaborating on his work by incorporating contemporary issues. The author observes that we tend not to embrace uncomfortable feelings or actions. Instead, we may attempt to suppress those thoughts, feelings, actions, or circumstances that do not fit the image we want to project. While it is easy for us to embrace comforting thoughts, feelings, and specific actions, it is imperative to we also embrace those discomforting thoughts, feelings, and specific actions and those sad circumstances as well. The more you embrace who you are, the more empowered you will be. Join the author as he explores the value of recognizing the whole of who you are-the good and the bad-and how to live the life you were meant to live.

Download or read book Trust written by Osho and published by St. Martin's Griffin. This book was released on 2017-05-02 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Trust: Living Spontaneously and Embracing Life, one of the greatest spiritual teachers of the twentieth century discusses the importance of believing in our own ideals and truths—and not giving in to the powerful societal influences that govern the world. We live in times where trust in old institutions and their relevance to our lives have evaporated. Religions, ideologies, political systems, morals, family, marriages—none of these traditional institutions are working anymore. Osho’s insight is that the institutions of the past have used the false substitutes of “belief” and “faith” as control mechanisms of society. Whereas authentic trust comes from within, belief systems are imposed from the outside by religious and social institutions. Osho encourages readers to rediscover and reclaim the innate trust that is born with each individual. No more demands to trust in an “other.” No more faith and belief, with their demands that we drop all questioning and doubt, but rather a willingness to honor our questions and doubts so fully that they will lead us to our unique, authentic, and individual truth. Osho challenges readers to examine and break free of the conditioned belief systems and prejudices that limit their capacity to enjoy life in all its richness. He has been described by the Sunday Times of London as one of the “1000 Makers of the 20th Century” and by Sunday Mid-Day (India) as one of the ten people—along with Gandhi, Nehru, and Buddha—who have changed the destiny of India. Since his death in 1990, the influence of his teachings continues to expand, reaching seekers of all ages in virtually every country of the world.

Download or read book Embracing Life As It Is written by Alan Gettis and published by . This book was released on 2018-11-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In haiku, we pay attention to the moment without embellishment. We embrace the moment as it is, not how we would like it to be. Just this, right here, right now. Wabi-sabi is valuing imperfection, impermanence, and the natural devolving of everything born or made. Just this, right here, right now, as is. Zen also teaches us to pay attention. The past is gone. The future is unknown. The only thing we have is this present moment. Meditation helps us to mindfully attend to this moment, just this breath, right here and right now. We learn to be where we are completely. Our premise is that wabi-sabi, haiku, and zen all provide important lessons in many things, including selflessness, acceptance, non-discrimination, compassion, and self-compassion.
