Download or read book Shedding Shame Letting Go of the Shame Game written by Roxine Denison and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2022-02-07 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shame is a subject many want to avoid. Believe me, from my own experience whatever pain it takes to journey through the process is so much better than staying stuck in an endless cycle that keeps you sick. The cloak of shame becomes our garment whether we did something shameful or something shameful was done to us. Shame is wrought with lies from the enemy and he uses those lies to rob us not only of our true identity but our destiny as well. It is amazingly possible to defeat the "shame game" as evidenced in Phillippians 4:13 which tells us "We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us". This book will guide you on your personal journey of shedding shame as you renew your mind. It is designed to be used as a teaching tool, with teacher's notes and homework for each chapter. I hope you find freedom, as I did, when I walked through this same journey. It is so worth the process! Educated by the "school of hard knocks", Roxine knows a little bit about the shame game. She continues to be a seeker on her own journey and has answered the call to help others find hope in the inner healing process. Her efforts to help others includes speaking, co-facilitating women's soul woundedness groups, and teaching ladies Bible studies. Currently she is serving as a prayer minister, manages a prayer group for inner healing and co-leads a school of inner healing prayer through her church. Roxine lives in South Georgia with her husband Richard and their dog Lucy.
Download or read book The Shame Game written by Janice Sterling Gaunt and published by BrownBooks.ORM. This book was released on 2011-05-01 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A licensed counselor shows how to stop saying you’re not good enough, let go of shame, and grab life by the horns. As you look at a newborn child, you become overwhelmed by his preciousness. Your heart is filled with love. Without doubt, you recognize that the child’s value was established at birth. The child’s value exists simply because he exists. You know with absolute certainty that this child—every child—can never be of lesser value. This child’s value simply is. This child is you. Abundant living is everyone’s birthright. Toxic shame can impede your ability to live abundantly, and The Shame Game offers you the tools to claim your inheritance. Although there have been books that address shame, healing shame, and abundant living, The Shame Game brings the three issues together in a more informative, readable, and concise manner than has ever been done. Janice gently guides you on a journey of self-awareness and healing, empowering you to rediscover your birth-created value. The Shame Game can set you free from the past, teach you to embrace the present, and open the door to an abundant future.

It’s a remarkable performance.” —Skip Hollandsworth, executive editor, Texas Monthly “Shame is at the heart of many healthcare issues for women.

Download or read book Shedding Shame and Claiming Freedom written by Anne Hastings and published by . This book was released on 2018-12-21 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shame is the underpinning of almost all distress, almost all emotional issues, almost all reluctance to claim your life fully. Knowing this, then you know that there is something you can do about it. Shame is what holds us back from self care, from discovering who we are and living it, from having boundaries around how we will interact with others. Releasing shame allows going from being a sheep to someone making their own decisions, who automatically lives with meaning and purpose. More than a glass half full, there is no glass. No external measure of goodness because it is all good. Sounds too good to be true? Walk with me through the shaming going on around us every day all day. See it for what it is so you can stop joining in. Stop shaming, refuse to be shamed, stop gossiping, stop criticizing. Instead seeing, and deciding the best course of action. And doing it. First we all need to rip ourselves loose from the control this dreadful emotion has on us. This book shows you the hundreds of ways shame influences our lives, and every one else's. The second section then walks through the process of healing ourselves from the harm caused. Shame can be put in its place, seen for what it is, and released from our cells.

Download or read book In Defense of Shame written by Julien A. Deonna and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is shame social? Is it superficial? Is it a morally problematic emotion? Researchers in disciplines as different as psychology, philosophy, and anthropology have thought so. But what is the nature of shame and why are claims regarding its social nature and moral standing interesting and important? Do they tell us anything worthwhile about the value of shame and its potential legal and political applications?In this book, Julien A. Deonna, Raffaele Rodogno, and Fabrice Teroni propose an original philosophical account of shame aimed at answering these questions. The book begins with a detailed examination of the evidence and arguments that are taken to support what they call the two dogmas about shame: its alleged social nature and its morally dubious character. Their analysis is conducted against the backdrop of a novel account of shame and ultimately leads to the rejection of these two dogmas. On this account, shame involves a specific form of negative evaluation that the subject takes towards herself: a verdict of incapacity with regard to values to which she is attached. One central virtue of the account resides in the subtle manner it clarifies the ways in which the subject's identity is at stake in shame, thus shedding light on many aspects of this complex emotion and allowing for a sophisticated understanding of its moral significance.This philosophical account of shame engages with all the current debates on shame as they are conducted within disciplines as varied as ethics, moral, experimental, developmental and evolutionary psychology, anthropology, legal studies, feminist studies, politics and public policy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jenny Marchs acclaimed Dictionary of Classical Mythology, first published in 1998 but long out of print, has been extensively revised and expanded including a completely new set of beautiful line-drawing illustrations for this Oxbow edition. It is a comprehensive A Z guide to Greek and Roman mythology. All major myths, legends and fables are here, including gods and goddesses, heroes and villains, dangerous women, legendary creatures and monsters. Characters such as Achilles and Odysseus have extensive entries, as do epic journeys and heroic quests, like that of Jason and the Argonauts to win the Golden Fleece, all alongside a plethora of information on the creation of the cosmos, the many metamorphoses of gods and humans, and the Trojan War, plus more minor figures nymphs, seers, kings, rivers, to name but a few. In this superbly authoritative work the myths are brilliantly retold, along with any major variants, and with extensive translations from ancient authors that give life to the narratives and a sense of the vibrant cultures that shaped the development of classical myth. The 172 illustrations give visual immediacy to the words, by showing how ancient artists perceived their gods and heroes. The impact of myths on ancient art is also explored, as is and their influence in the postclassical arts, emphasising the ongoing inspiration afforded by the ancient myths. Also included are two maps of the ancient world, a list of the ancient sources and their chronology, the more important genealogies, and an index of recurrent mythical motifs.

In other words, the post-fifty version of “an apple a day” is “nurture your friendships.” In her trademark style—a vibrant and accessible mix of anecdotes, personal observations, and relevant research—Suzanne Braun Levine’s You Gotta Have Girlfriends is an inspiring and eye-opening affirmation of the power of female friendship in the second half of life.

Download or read book Daring Greatly written by Brené Brown and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2013-01-17 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Researcher and thought leader Dr. Brené Brown offers a powerful new vision in Daring Greatly that encourages us to embrace vulnerability and imperfection, to live wholeheartedly and courageously. 'It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; . . . who at best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly' -Theodore Roosevelt Every time we are introduced to someone new, try to be creative, or start a difficult conversation, we take a risk. We feel uncertain and exposed. We feel vulnerable. Most of us try to fight those feelings - we strive to appear perfect. Challenging everything we think we know about vulnerability, Dr. Brené Brown dispels the widely accepted myth that it's a weakness. She argues that vulnerability is in fact a strength, and when we shut ourselves off from revealing our true selves we grow distanced from the things that bring purpose and meaning to our lives. Daring Greatly is the culmination of 12 years of groundbreaking social research, across the home, relationships, work, and parenting. It is an invitation to be courageous; to show up and let ourselves be seen, even when there are no guarantees. This is vulnerability. This is daring greatly. 'Brilliantly insightful. I can't stop thinking about this book' -Gretchen Rubin Brené Brown, Ph.D., LMSW is a #1 New York Times bestselling author and a research professor at the University of Houston Graduate College of Social Work. Her groundbreaking work was featured on Oprah Winfrey's Super Soul Sunday, NPR, and CNN. Her TED talk is one of the most watched TED talks of all time. Brené is also the author of The Gifts of Imperfection and I Thought It Was Just Me (but it isn't).
