Download or read book The Taming of Evolution written by Davydd Greenwood and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-03-15 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theory of evolution has clearly altered our views of the biological world, but in the study of human beings, evolutionary and preevolutionary views continue to coexist in a state of perpetual tension. The Taming of Evolution addresses the questions of how and why this is so. Davydd Greenwood offers a sustained critique of the nature/nurture debate, revealing the complexity of the relationship between science and ideology. He maintains that popular contemporary theories, most notably E. O. Wilson’s human sociobiology and Marvin Harris’s cultural materialism, represent pre-Darwinian notions overlaid by elaborate evolutionary terminology. Greenwood first details the humoral-environmental and Great Chain of Being theories that dominated Western thinking before Darwin. He systematically compares these ideas with those later influenced by Darwin’s theories, illuminating the surprising continuities between them. Greenwood suggests that it would be neither difficult nor socially dangerous to develop a genuinely evolutionary understanding of human beings, so long as we realized that we could not derive political and moral standards from the study of biological processes.

Download or read book Cracking the Stress Secret written by Amir A. Rashidian and published by Greenleaf Book Group. This book was released on 2022-10-18 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why stress isn’t a bad thing and how to turn it into strength When we seek advice on health and wellness, we are commonly told to reduce or eliminate stress in our lives. Cracking the Stress Secret takes a different stance. In this book, author, speaker, and chiropractor Amir Rashidian explains that striving to accomplish goals and improve ourselves inherently comes along with obstacles and stress, and so it’s unrealistic—even undesirable—to cut stress from our lives. How much we achieve depends on how much stress we can safely handle. In fact, stress can become a natural source of fuel for success. Geared toward professionals, entrepreneurs, and anyone who has a busy daily life but also has big aspirations, Cracking the Stress Secret demonstrates how health comes from the inside out and why it’s best to intentionally and gradually increase (not decrease) stress to improve adaptability and resilience. Dr. Rashidian provides ten steps that you can use to prepare yourself physically, biochemically, and psychologically for whatever pressures life might throw at you. Using compelling stories from his life and practice and drawing from his decades of experience in studying the human body’s response to stress, Dr. Rashidian illustrates how you can learn and adapt during stressful times, overcoming the challenges you face and, through the process, becoming better, stronger, and happier.

Download or read book Tame Your Energy Sensitivity written by Natalie Eve Cutsforth and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2020-02-18 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sensitivity is not always simply having a stressful response in the mind, body or emotions to situations you encounter. Many sensitives are reading the energy around them by feeling it in their body. This activates a stress response because it disrupts their own senses—creating doubt and distrust for the signals from their inner guidance. Energy sensitives, also known as empaths, often navigate life not understanding this. In Tame Your Energy Sensitivity, a tiger teaches sensitive people that you can reclaim trust in your senses when you understand your true nature. Many empaths have heard the whispers of their inner guidance but don’t know how to translate it or what to do with the information. The messages from their body have long been disregarded, and they’ve often experienced intuitive hints as something “wrong” with them. Relearning trust for an empath means understanding that a knot in the stomach or anxiety for “no reason” is in fact an empathic sensitivity trying to get their attention. Whatever the reason, know this: An empath’s inner-peace depends on only reading people with permission. Tame Your Energy Sensitivity, holds the secrets to self-care for sensitive people; how-to set healthy boundaries and be a happy, health empath.
