Book How to be Happy  Not a Self Help Book  Seriously

Download or read book How to be Happy Not a Self Help Book Seriously written by Iain S. Thomas and published by Central Avenue Publishing. This book was released on 2015-07-26 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Central Avenue Publishing is proud to publish another book by the widely acclaimed poet Iain S. Thomas. As many have noted on various social media platforms, there have been some issues that have led to the delayed release of this book. For this, we apologise and hopefully the content of the book will clarify the circumstances surrounding this delay. We feel we should also point out that this is not technically a self-help book, but it does contain some poignant prose, poetry and stories which may or may not lead you to happiness. Mostly, it is the rather unfortunate chronicle of a man's attempt to write the book he’s promised his publisher, no matter the cost to his sanity.

Download or read book Joy written by Alexander Lowen and published by Penguin. This book was released on 1995-12-01 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surrender to your body and recover joy Alexander Lowen, famous student of Wilhelm Reich and founder of Bioenergetics, reveals in this book how to reclaim a natural, childlike state of joy through exercises that revive the body's vitality and liberate the energy of suppressed feelings. Using examples from four decades of clinical practice, Lowen shows how painful emotional experiences—from sexual abuse and fear of dying to the anger and heartbreak all human beings experience in life—are manifested in bodily symptoms. He then instructs readers how to listen for and answer the unique signals in the body that serve as internal cries for freedom. The vibrant health that results has a wide range of holistic benefits for the total being, including enhanced sexual pleasure and heightened spirituality. Joy, the culmination of Lowen’s life work, is a wonderfully hopeful and transformational guide from one of the pioneers of body/mind therapy.

Book excerpt: Some love stories aren’t meant to last Stella lives with depression, and her goals for junior year are pretty much limited to surviving her classes, staying out of her parents’ constant fights and staving off unwanted feelings enough to hang out with her friends Lin and Katie. Until Kevin. A quiet, wry senior who understands Stella and the lows she’s going through like no one else. With him, she feels less lonely, listened to—and hopeful for the first time since ever… But to keep that feeling, Stella lets her grades go and her friendships slide. And soon she sees just how deep Kevin’s own scars go. Now little arguments are shattering. Major fights are catastrophic. And trying to hold it all together is exhausting Stella past the breaking point. With her life spinning out of control, she’s got to figure out what she truly needs, what’s worth saving—and what to let go.

Book The Modernist Legacy  Essays on New Music

Download or read book The Modernist Legacy Essays on New Music written by Björn Heile and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays offers a historical reappraisal of what musical modernism was, and what its potential for the present and future could be. It thus moves away from the binary oppositions that have beset twentieth-century music studies in the past, such as those between modernism and postmodernism, between conceptions of musical autonomy and of cultural contingency and between formalist-analytical and cultural-historical approaches. Focussing particularly on music from the 1970s to the 1990s, the volume assembles approaches from different perspectives to new music with a particular emphasis on a critical reassessment of the meaning and function of the legacy of musical modernism. The authors include scholars, musicologists and composers who combine culturally, socially, historically and aesthetically oriented approaches with analytical methods in imaginative ways.

D. and published by Strategic Book Publishing. This book was released on 2014-02 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do we choose to create what we need, or complain about its absence? In long-term intimate relationships, it all comes down to a choice: Drive or Bitch. Rabbi Doctor Sheldon Wayne Moss has guided thousands of couples into more satisfying, long-term relationships. As a research psychologist, he has demonstrated that using humor to bond is a relationship skill that can be easily learned. He says, "Couples argue in the car about each other's driving. At one point, I turned to Barbara, my wife, and made an offer, 'Do you want to drive or do you want to bitch about my driving?' It spiked a hearty laugh and got us thinking. We road test this proactive choice throughout Barbara's serious battle with Stage 4 Mantle Cell Lymphoma Cancer. I take the readers into a ground-shifting seminar of many couples describing how they stopped complaining, and nourished their bonding instead." About the Author As founder of the Soviet-American Forum, Rabbi Sheldon Wayne Moss, D.D., Ph.D., convened the five international human rights conferences between East and West during Perestroika. With his wife, he founded Sunburst Rabbinic Retreat Center, a national think tank in Boulder, Colorado. The couple has been married 29 years, have four children, and eight grandchildren. He is now the rabbi of Temple Beth Shalom, northwest of Phoenix, and is president of the Area Ministerial Association. Publisher's website: http: //sbprabooks.com/SheldonWayneMoss

Book Impromptu Man

Download or read book Impromptu Man written by Jonathan D. Moreno and published by Bellevue Literary Press. This book was released on 2014-09-22 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Impromptu Man captures the remarkable impact of a singular genius, J.L. Moreno, whose creations—the best-known being psychodrama—have shaped our culture in myriad ways, many unrecognized. The record will be set straight for all time by this can’t-put-down biography, a tribute by Jonathan D. Moreno to his father’s masterly legacy.” —DANIEL GOLEMAN, author of Emotional Intelligence: Why It Can Matter More Than IQ J.L. Moreno (1889-1974), the father of psychodrama, was an early critic of Sigmund Freud, wrote landmark works of Viennese expressionism, founded an experimental theater where he discovered Peter Lorre, influenced Martin Buber, and became one of the most important psychiatrists and social scientists of his time. A mystic, theater impresario and inventor in his youth, Moreno immigrated to America in 1926, where he trained famous actors, introduced group therapy, and was a forerunner of humanistic psychology. As a social reformer, he reorganized schools and prisons, and designed New Deal planned communities for workers and farmers. Moreno’s methods have been adopted by improvisational theater groups, military organizations, educators, business leaders, and trial lawyers. His studies of social networks laid the groundwork for social media like Twitter and Facebook. Featuring interviews with Clay Shirky, Gloria Steinem, and Werner Erhard, among others, original documentary research, and the author’s own perspective growing up as the son of an innovative genius, Impromptu Man is both the study of a great and largely unsung figure of the last century and an epic history, taking readers from the creative chaos of early twentieth-century Vienna to the wired world of Silicon Valley. Jonathan D. Moreno, called the “most interesting bioethicist of our time” by the American Journal of Bioethics, is a professor at the University of Pennsylvania and a Senior Fellow at the Center for American Progress.

Book Happy

  • Author : Derren Brown
  • Publisher : Random House
  • Release : 2016-09-22
  • ISBN : 147352685X
  • Pages : 552 pages

Download or read book Happy written by Derren Brown and published by Random House. This book was released on 2016-09-22 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sunday Times Bestseller 'Really brilliant and just crammed with wisdom and insight. It will genuinely make a difference to me and the way I think about myself.' Stephen Fry ___ Everyone says they want to be happy. But that's much more easily said than done. What does being happy actually mean? And how do you even know when you feel it? In Happy Derren Brown explores changing concepts of happiness - from the surprisingly modern wisdom of the Stoics and Epicureans in classical times right up until today, when the self-help industry has attempted to claim happiness as its own. He shows how many of self-help's suggested routes to happiness and success - such as positive thinking, self-belief and setting goals - can be disastrous to follow and, indeed, actually cause anxiety. Happy aims to reclaim happiness and to enable us to appreciate the good things in life, in all their transient glory. By taking control of the stories we tell ourselves, by remembering that 'everything's fine' even when it might not feel that way, we can allow ourselves to flourish and to live more happily. ___ What readers are saying: ***** 'Immensely positive and life-affirming' ***** 'This is the blue print to a good life' ***** 'Thought provoking and potentially life-changing.'
