Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many people in our world suffer severely in silence, unaware of the seriousness of their depressed thinking & unable to see a path out of that state of thought. Their inner life is absolute hell. Their thought patterns can lead to drastic behaviors including drug-dependency, substance abuse, & suicide attempts. Other people in the lives of the depressed individuals can’t imagine the kinds of thoughts that repeat themselves over & over in the minds of the suffering ones. To these others, there seems to be no observable reason for the suffering one to feel as terrible as he/she feels, yet that is the reality. The author published the book for two reasons: 1)to help those suffering major depression to see in print some of their thought patterns & realize that they are NOT alone, 2)to enable those sufferers to see a path of thoughts that may help them to slowly work their way out of the inner disaster they live w/ regularly. It takes time & consistent effort, but it is possible. In the case of the author, he has been able to progress far enough to be able to live w/o depression/anxiety medicines & without substance abuse. If you find YOUR thoughts in the first section of this book, YOU are a prisoner of your own thinking, unable to experience life in a way that brings you peace & fulfillment. Begin to realize that what you repeat over & over in your thinking is NOT THE TRUTH. It is your mental illness telling you awful things about yourself. You probably have said awful things about yourself for a long time. In order to change your life, you must begin to practice different thoughts. Use ideas from the second & third sections of the book, repeat them over & over to start replacing the self-destructive thoughts. Remember, you have practiced the self-destructive thoughts for a long time. It will take extended practice of new thoughts to change to a healthier life. Only by repeated practice can you begin to tear away the awful weights of self-destructive thinking.

Download or read book Treating Self Destructive Behaviors in Trauma Survivors written by Lisa Ferentz and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-09-08 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Treating Self-Destructive Behaviors in Trauma Survivors, 2nd ed, is a book for clinicians who specialize in helping trauma survivors and, during the course of treatment, find themselves unexpectedly confronted with client disclosures of self-destructive behaviors, including self-mutilation and other manifestations of deliberately "hurting the body" such as bingeing, purging, starving, substance abuse and other addictive behaviors. Arguing that standard safety contracts are not effective, renowned clinician Lisa Ferentz introduces viable treatment alternatives, assessment tools, and new ways of understanding self-destructive behavior using a strengths-based approach that distinguishes between the "experimental" non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) that some teenagers occasionally engage in and the self-destructive behaviors that are repetitive and chronic. In the new edition, many of the treatment strategies are cross referenced to a useful workbook, giving therapists and clients concrete ways to integrate theory into practice. In addition, Ferentz emphasizes the importance of assessing for and strengthening clients' self-compassion, and explains how nurturing this idea cognitively, emotionally, and somatically can become the catalyst for motivation and change. The book also explores a cycle of behavior that clinicians can personalize and use as a template for treatment. In its final sections, the book focuses on counter-transferential responses and the different ways in which therapists can work with self-destructive behaviors and avoid vicarious traumatization by adopting tools and strategies for self-care. Treating Self-Destructive Behaviors in Trauma Survivors, 2nd ed, can be used on its own or in conjunction with the accompanying client-focused workbook, Letting Go of Self-Destructive Behaviors: A Workbook of Hope and Healing.

Download or read book Stoicism for Inner Peace written by Einzelgänger and published by . This book was released on 2021-03-21 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ancient Stoics were deeply concerned with the virtue of equanimity. Equanimity or 'inner peace' is a prerequisite for being a happy and flourishing person according to Stoic philosophy. Therefore, it's no surprise that ancient Stoic texts contain invaluable wisdom on how to calm the mind. The challenge, however, is to find and translate this wisdom in a way that's simple and comprehensible in our modern context, while still maintaining its profundity. Einzelgänger studied the ancient Stoic texts and has been creating a (growing) collection of essays on applying Stoic philosophy in everyday life.Most of these essays have been published on YouTube in video format. Due to their popularity, Einzelgänger decided to revise a selection of these essays on Stoicism and inner peace, and release them in book format. Not only have all the texts been re-edited and improved, many of them have been extended, and two unreleased pieces about 'loneliness' and 'guilt' have been added to the collection. A focus on inner peace is more than relevant in these challenging and unpredictable times. Stoic philosophy can help us put things into perspective, let go of past events, worry less about the future, and improve our overall experience of life.
