Book When Two Spines Align  Dressage Dynamics

Download or read book When Two Spines Align Dressage Dynamics written by Beth Baumert and published by Trafalgar Square Books. This book was released on 2015-09-14 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within riding exists a fundamental conflict of interest: The rider needs to have control—her confidence depends on her ability to control the balance of her own body as well as that of her very powerful horse. The horse, by nature, needs to feel free—free in both mind and body to express himself through movement. In When Two Spines Align, author Beth Baumert, writer and editor at the equestrian magazine Dressage Today, resolves the freedom-control enigma by taking a close look at the individual components that make up riding and dressage and providing practical ways riders can learn to harness the balance, energies, and forces at play. Readers will discover how to use “positive tension” and their body’s “power lines” to become balanced and effective in the saddle. They will then find ways to understand and manage the horse's balance and “coordination challenges.” Ultimately, the rider learns to regulate and monitor the horse's rhythm, energy, flexion, alignment, bend, and line of travel by properly aligning her spine with his. When the center of gravity of a balanced rider is over the center of gravity of a balanced horse, that place where two spines align becomes the hub for rider and horse harmony.

Book excerpt: "Of Two Minds - Navigating 100 Oxymoronic Crossroads" takes readers on a profound journey through the complexities of life's choices, exploring the paradoxes inherent in decision-making. The book contrasts two fundamental approaches: people-pleasing and setting healthy boundaries. It delves into the characteristics, consequences, and benefits of each, inviting readers to reflect on their own choices and interpersonal dynamics. The narrative unfolds in an imaginative landscape, where the protagonists confront a century of decisions marked by oxymorons. Themes of simplicity and complexity, clarity and ambiguity, and other paradoxes are woven into the fabric of the storytelling. The exploration is guided by the principle of assertive empathy, encouraging a balance between accommodating others and prioritizing one's well-being. Throughout the book, readers encounter fictional titles in the bibliography that add an extra layer of creativity, reinforcing the thematic exploration of decision-making in a paradoxical world. "Decisions in Duality" serves not only as an engaging exploration of human behavior but also as an invitation to embrace the contradictions that shape our lives and relationships. The narrative encourages readers to find meaning in the dance between easy and hard choices, and to navigate the complexities of their own crossroads with thoughtful introspection and assertive empathy.

Book Forms of Intersubjectivity

Download or read book Forms of Intersubjectivity written by Beatrice Beebe and published by Other Press, LLC. This book was released on 2020-09-15 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With new discussions by Theodore Jacobs and Regina Pally Adult psychoanalysis has approached the study of intersubjectivity by concentrating primarily on the verbal dialogue, an explicit mode of communication. Infant research, on the other hand, focuses on nonverbal communication and implicit modes of action sequences, operating largely out of awareness, such as interactions of gaze, facial expression, and body rhythms. This book proposes that an integration of these two approaches is essential to a deeper understanding of the therapeutic action. The authors use a dyadic systems model of self- and interactive regulation as a lens for comparing diverse theories of intersubjectivity, both in adults and infants. Building on the definition of intersubjectivity in infancy as correspondence and matching of expressions, the authors offer an expanded view of the presymbolic origins of intersubjectivity. They address the place of interactive regulation, problems with the concept of matching, the roles of self-regulation and of difference, and the balance of self- and interactive regulation. An adult treatment of early trauma is described through detailed clinical case material illustrating both the verbal narrative and the implicit "action dialogue" operating largely outside of awareness. This book includes new discussions by Theodore Jacobs, arguing that nonverbal communication is vitally important to psychoanalysis, and by Regina Pally, arguing that aspects of this book have parallels in neuroscience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Society is in a state of chaos; yet almost all life stresses are human-made. Our species is literally making itself sick. In A World in Two Minds, Kenny Jamieson considers the two complex adaptive systems behind the chaos &– the individual mind and the global mind &– and how the latter emerges, in the form of culture, from the former. We have a global cognitive imbalance due to the dominance of the mechanistic worldview of scientific materialism, which is strongly rooted in the left mind and Western culture. Over centuries, this bias has gradually dissociated us from the right mind, lowering consciousness, denaturing the human condition and negatively impacting our health. Today, life offers the human race both opportunity and danger. Our global mind could evolve to a higher cognitive plane where harmony, health and happiness prevail, but it could just as easily disintegrate, leading to catastrophic conflict. Our future is unknown but whatever we bring forth will be the output of the global mind we collectively create. Critically, everyone has a role to play. Any one of us could be the final catalyst which tips our whole human system into a new era.

Book Being of Two Minds

Download or read book Being of Two Minds written by Jonathan Goldberg and published by Fordham Univ Press. This book was released on 2022-09-06 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Being of Two Minds examines the place that early modern literature held in Modernist literary criticism. For T. S. Eliot, Virginia Woolf, and William Empson, the early modern period helps model a literary future. At stake in their engagements across time were ontological questions about literature and its ability to mediate between the one and the many, the particular and the general, life and death, the past and the present. If reading and writing literature enables the mind to be in two places at once, creative experience serves as a way to participate in an expanded field of consciousness alongside mortality. Goldberg reads the readings that these modernists performed on texts that Eliot claimed for the canon like the metaphysical poets and Jacobean dramatists, but also Shakespeare, Milton, Montaigne, and Margaret Cavendish. Ontological concerns are reflected in Eliot’s engagement with Aristotle’s theory of the soul and Empson’s Buddhism. These arguments about being affect minds and bodies and call into question sexual normativity: Eliot glances at a sodomitical male-male mode of literary transmission; Woolf produces a Judith Shakespeare to model androgynous being; Empson refuses to distinguish activity from passivity to rewrite gender difference. The work of one of our leading literary and cultural critics, Being of Two Minds spans centuries to show how the most compelling and surprising ideas about mind, experience, and existence not only move between early modernity, high modernism, and our own moment, but are also constituted through that very movement between times and minds.

Book excerpt: Quantum Mind: Breaking Boundaries In this book, the principles of the quantum mind are unveiled and applied to personal development, offering the reader practical tools to transform their reality. Based on the theories of quantum physics and esoteric traditions, the content reveals how thoughts and emotions act as energy frequencies, interacting with the quantum field that surrounds us. This field, as described by modern science, responds directly to human intentions, shaping the outside world according to the internal vibrational state. The book presents powerful techniques such as quantum meditation, which allows access to deep states of consciousness, and creative visualization, a practice that attunes the mind to desired realities, accelerating the process of manifestation. The reader also learns about the importance of identifying and overcoming limiting beliefs, reprogramming their mind to vibrate in harmony with the experiences they wish to attract. In addition, the text explores how alignment with life purpose directly influences the quality of manifestations, showing that when we are in tune with our purpose, our energy resonates more effectively with the quantum field. The science behind vibrational frequencies is clearly explained, offering insights into how to raise one's energy to attract prosperity, love and success. This book is a complete guide for those who wish to explore the depths of the quantum mind and use this knowledge to create a more fulfilling life in line with their desires. By combining scientific and spiritual concepts, it offers a balanced approach to personal development and conscious manifestation.

Book A Handbook of Theories on Designing Alignment Between People and the Office Environment

Download or read book A Handbook of Theories on Designing Alignment Between People and the Office Environment written by Rianne Appel-Meulenbroek and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-06-16 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although workplace design and management are gaining more and more attention from modern organizations, workplace research is still very fragmented and spread across multiple disciplines in academia. There are several books on the market related to workplaces, facility management (FM), and corporate real estate management (CREM) disciplines, but few open up a theoretical and practical discussion across multiple theories from different fields of studies. Therefore, workplace researchers are not aware of all the angles from which workplace management and effects of workplace design on employees has been or could be studied. A lot of knowledge is lost between disciplines, and sadly, many insights do not reach workplace managers in practice. Therefore, this new book series is started by associate professor Rianne Appel-Meulenbroek (Eindhoven University of Technology, the Netherlands) and postdoc researcher Vitalija Danivska (Aalto University, Finland) as editors, published by Routledge. It is titled ‘Transdisciplinary Workplace Research and Management’ because it bundles important research insights from different disciplinary fields and shows its relevance for both academic workplace research and workplace management in practice. The books will address the complexity of the transdisciplinary angle necessary to solve ongoing workplace-related issues in practice, such as knowledge worker productivity, office use, and more strategic workplace management. In addition, the editors work towards further collaboration and integration of the necessary disciplines for further development of the workplace field in research and in practice. This book series is relevant for workplace experts both in academia and industry. This first book in the series focuses on the employee as a user of the work environment. The 21 theories discussed and applied to workplace design in this book address people’s ability to do their job and thrive in relation to the office workplace. Some focus more on explaining why people behave the way they do (the psychosocial environment), while others take the physical and/or digital workplace quality as a starting point to explain employee outcomes such as health, satisfaction, and performance. They all explain different aspects for achieving employee-workplace alignment (EWA) and thereby ensuring employee thriving. The final chapter describes a first step towards integrating these theories into an overall interdisciplinary framework for eventually developing a grand EWA theory.

Book An Educator   s Guide to Using Your 3 Eyes

Download or read book An Educator s Guide to Using Your 3 Eyes written by Megan R. Sweet Ed. D. and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2018-11-17 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Applying intellect, insight, and intuition to promote school-wide transformation for educators through interpersonal reflection and hands-on tools. This is no one-size-fits-all approach to education that provides a formula or a practical how-to guide. The truths found in this book are about applying research-based best practices to the processes that lie outside of academia. Readers will find themselves getting out their pens and highlighters to write in the margins and apply personal reflection to the teachings. The three Is—intellect, insight, and intuition—are tools for educators to find personal growth and development inside the structure of the school system so that they can promote school-wide transformation. When educators stop fighting the system and instead look inward for the answers, they will begin to see the improved student achievement and involvement they crave. Readers will walk away with: — greater self-awareness that will improve the classroom and educational landscape around them, — improved self-appreciation that will fuel empathy in the classroom and workplace, — clarity about the origin and influence of their beliefs that will help them combat negative beliefs and take advantage of positive beliefs, and — better decision-making skills developed through a contemplative approach.

Book Traumatic Experiences of Normal Development

Download or read book Traumatic Experiences of Normal Development written by Carl H. Shubs and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-02-24 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditionally, trauma has been defined as negatively impacting external events, with resulting damage. This book puts forth an entirely different thesis: trauma is universal, occurring under even the best of circumstances and unavoidably sculpting the very building blocks of character structure. In Traumatic Experiences of Normal Development, Dr. Carl Shubs depathologizes the experience of trauma by presenting a listening perspective which helps recognize the presence and effects of traumatic experiences of normal development (TEND) by using a reconstruction of object relations theory. This outlook redefines trauma as the breach in intrapsychic organization of Self, Affect, and Other (SAO), the three components of object relations units, which combine to form intricate and changeable constellations that are no less than the total experience of living in any given moment. Bridging the gap between the trauma and analytic communities, as well as integrating intrapsychic and relational frameworks, the SAO/ TEND perspective provides a trauma-based band of attunement for attending to all relational encounters including those occurring in therapy. Though targeted to mental health professionals, this book will help enable therapists and sophisticated lay readers alike to recognize the impact of relational encounters, providing new tools to understand the traumas we have experienced and to minimize the hold they have on us.
