Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This eye-opening text brings together research from behavioral science, neuroscience, and other fields to make a cogent case for emotions acting as a practical framework for living our lives. A dozen basic emotions are analyzed in terms of what causes them, how they change thoughts and behaviors, and the functional value of these responses. Contrary to the common idea of emotions as fleeting occurrences, they are shown as having the potential for lasting impact on moods, thoughts, and behaviors. Intriguing findings assert that even negative emotions such as jealousy and anger can have positive results such as promoting positive goals, and can lead to successful outcomes in overarching domains such as cognition and well-being. Among the topics covered: · How fear and anxiety promote attention and protective behavior. · How sadness and depression promote analysis of complex problems in goal-pursuits. · How happiness promotes processing and attention. · How love promotes relationship development and goal attainment. · How pride promotes sense of self and identity. The Function of Emotions is a valuable resource for students, researchers, and clinicians interested in the psychology and neuroscience of emotions and their function in everyday life. It will attract an interested readership among professionals working in such fields as education, management and leadership, social work, and psychotherapy.

Download or read book The Muscle Whisperer written by Sophia Kupse and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-02-14 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a self help guide explaining the breakthrough discovery, revealing the true reasons why neck, shoulder and back pain occur so commonly. Based on over 20 years research and using individual case studies, Sophia Kupse, known as the Muscle Whisperer and a Holistic Practitioner, looks at why back pain has become the silent epidemic of 21st century living. It helps the reader understand why they suffer from back pain and how they can easily apply proven steps, known as keys, that will help diminish or erase back pain for life. The book includes Chapters that target specific areas such as 'Fact Versus Fiction.' This chapter looks at government statistics on the causes of back pain, how fast we recover from it, the treatment of back pain and who gets back pain. Sophia challenges the myths surrounding back pain, which state that it occurs mainly from physical trauma. Over 85% of Sophia's clients see her because they do not know or understand the cause of their pain. Conventional remedies or treatments they have used have not succeeded in clearing the problem and they now look for a more natural way of approaching their back pain. Further Chapters cover her new revolutionary treatment for back pain. Developed by Sophia, the 'Langellottit Tri-Therapy, ' known as 'LT Therapy, ' goes beyond normal massage. She is a leading pioneer in holistic medicine, using Eastern and Western methods as the foundations of her treatment, including volcanic heat and ice marble to attain successful results every time. Intriguing chapters that reveal how our brain plays a key role in processing the language we use to deal with stress and how by the way we react to challenging situations, will cause our neck, shoulder and back pain to intensify. The more negatively we react to a situation, the more adrenaline and cortisol we release. Too much of the 'fight or flight' hormone when unnecessary, converts to lactic acid. This leads to a build up in the largest muscle groups of the body, mainly the back muscles. Over time, regular accumulation of this toxin, form clusters that develop into hard knots. These eventually put pressure on the sensory nerves in the neck, shoulder and back muscles, creating irregular and increased pain. The keys to releasing this pain effectively are shared in the closing chapters of the book.
