Download or read book How and why Thoughts Change written by Ian M. Evans and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2015 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In How and Why Thoughts Change, Dr. Ian Evans deconstructs the nature of cognitive therapy by examining the cognitive element of CBT, that is, how and why thoughts change behavior and emotion. There are a number of different approaches to cognitive therapy, including the classic Beck approach, the late Albert Ellis's rational-emotive psychotherapy, Young's schema-focused therapy, and newer varieties such as mindfulness training, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and problem-solving strategies. Evans identifies the common principles underlying these methods, attempts to integrate them, and makes suggestions as to how our current cognitive therapies might be improved. He draws on a broad survey of contemporary research on basic cognitive processes and integrates these with therapeutic approaches.

Download or read book Clouded Thoughts written by Michael Froilan and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-02-14 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here's to looking up when facing setbacks. Here's to making breakthroughs and conquering adversity. Here's to love, healing, & self-transformation. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Here's to you. REVIEW "Clouded Thoughts is more than a book of spiritual poetry. It explores the themes of love, loss and growing and healing our spirit. It attempts to give hope to everyone who recognize the spirit is the core of their being and can only be healed on a spiritual level. Because the journey seems so long, ways to acknowledge growth and progress to keep from being discouraged are often necessary. Clouded Thoughts attempts to demonstrate this progress by using the theme of love, loss and a rare combination of vulnerability and strength, that makes readers introspect and dig deeper into their own beliefs, experiences and attitudes. A season is cyclical and so is healing. One doesn't merely heal by first going through acknowledgement of a wound, then anger, then grief, then acceptance and, finally one is free from everything. We go through many stages, often many times with the same issue. It is the same with spiritual healing. Trust is wounded on so many levels, but healing is possible and it is a wonderful journey when one can finally look back on it and see how God has really been with you all the way, even in the dark days when you cannot see or believe anything. Clouded Thoughts is a compilation from many poems over the years to illustrate the slow steady progress of one's spiritual life encapsulated in a year of seasons. In one's own life, if you can get through the dark times, you can see the silver lining. Reading Verse by Verse you will arrive at that wonder-filled place where poems are filled with a sense of freedom and joy. The hope is that you will be able to see your own spiritual journey somehow reflected in its verses. Michael Froilan has a kind knowledge and a deep in touch spirituality with love. I enjoyed reading these poems, I must say poems are very relatable. Relax and let each poem take you into a different world. You're guaranteed to come back with more wisdom, confidence , love and appreciation. This is the greatest Poetry book ever written. (The Readera Book Blog)

Download or read book Hallucinations written by Oliver Sacks and published by Knopf Canada. This book was released on 2012-11-06 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hallucinations, for most people, imply madness. But there are many different types of non-psychotic hallucination caused by various illnesses or injuries, by intoxication--even, for many people, by falling sleep. From the elementary geometrical shapes that we see when we rub our eyes to the complex swirls and blind spots and zigzags of a visual migraine, hallucination takes many forms. At a higher level, hallucinations associated with the altered states of consciousness that may come with sensory deprivation or certain brain disorders can lead to religious epiphanies or conversions. Drawing on a wealth of clinical examples from his own patients as well as historical and literary descriptions, Oliver Sacks investigates the fundamental differences and similarities of these many sorts of hallucinations, what they say about the organization and structure of our brains, how they have influenced every culture's folklore and art, and why the potential for hallucination is present in us all.
