Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Moving to America turns H&à's life inside out. For all the 10 years of her life, H&à has only known Saigon: the thrills of its markets, the joy of its traditions, the warmth of her friends close by, and the beauty of her very own papaya tree. But now the Vietnam War has reached her home. H&à and her family are forced to flee as Saigon falls, and they board a ship headed toward hope. In America, H&à discovers the foreign world of Alabama: the coldness of its strangers, the dullness of its food, the strange shape of its landscape, and the strength of her very own family. This is the moving story of one girl's year of change, dreams, grief, and healing as she journeys from one country to another, one life to the next.

Book Changing the World from the Inside Out

Download or read book Changing the World from the Inside Out written by David Jaffe and published by Shambhala Publications. This book was released on 2016-10-18 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WINNER OF THE 2016 JEWISH BOOK COUNCIL AWARD FOR CONTEMPORARY JEWISH LIFE AND PRACTICE An inspiring and accessible guide, drawn from Jewish wisdom, for building the inner qualities necessary to work effectively for social justice. The world needs changing—and you’re just the person to do it! It’s a matter of cultivating the inner resources you already have. If you are serious about working for social justice and change, this book will help you bring your most compassionate, wise, and courageous self to the job. Bringing positive social change to any system takes deep self-awareness, caring, determination, and long-term commitment. But polarization, the slow pace of change, and internal conflicts among activists and organizations often leads to burnout and discouragement among the very people needed to make a difference. Changing the World from the Inside Out distills centuries of Jewish wisdom about cultivating and refining the inner life into an accessible program for building the qualities necessary to accomplish sustainable change. Through explorations of deep motivation, inner-drive, and traits like trust and anger, this book engages the reader in a journey of self-development and transformation, demonstrating that sustainable activism is indeed a spiritual practice. Jaffe offers accessible and meaningful guidance for this journey—with exercises, contemplations, and discussion points that can be used individually or in a group.

Book The Brain from Inside Out

    Book Details:
  • Author : György Buzsáki MD, PhD
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2019-04-18
  • ISBN : 0190905395
  • Pages : 465 pages

Download or read book The Brain from Inside Out written by György Buzsáki MD, PhD and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-04-18 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is there a right way to study how the brain works? Following the empiricist's tradition, the most common approach involves the study of neural reactions to stimuli presented by an experimenter. This 'outside-in' method fueled a generation of brain research and now must confront hidden assumptions about causation and concepts that may not hold neatly for systems that act and react. György Buzsáki's The Brain from Inside Out examines why the outside-in framework for understanding brain function has become stagnant and points to new directions for understanding neural function. Building upon the success of 2011's Rhythms of the Brain, Professor Buzsáki presents the brain as a foretelling device that interacts with its environment through action and the examination of action's consequence. Consider that our brains are initially filled with nonsense patterns, all of which are gibberish until grounded by action-based interactions. By matching these nonsense "words" to the outcomes of action, they acquire meaning. Once its circuits are "calibrated" by action and experience, the brain can disengage from its sensors and actuators, and examine "what happens if" scenarios by peeking into its own computation, a process that we refer to as cognition. The Brain from Inside Out explains why our brain is not an information-absorbing coding device, as it is often portrayed, but a venture-seeking explorer constantly controlling the body to test hypotheses. Our brain does not process information: it creates it.

Book Turning Suffering Inside Out

Download or read book Turning Suffering Inside Out written by Darlene Cohen and published by Shambhala Publications. This book was released on 2002-10-08 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This “practical, down-to-earth, and very wise guide to awakening” offers a Zen-based approach to coping with physical, psychological, and spiritual pain (Jack Kornfield) Darlene Cohen discovered the secret to finding happiness in the midst of debilitating pain. She shares her knowledge in her popular workshops and now in this book. Cohen, who has suffered from rheumatoid arthritis for eighteen years, was hobbling painfully to her local Zen center one day, when she made a discovery that changed her life: if she focused on the foot that was in the air rather than the one that was hitting the pavement, her stamina increased enormously. It was the beginning of a completely different approach to the crippling pain that had beset her for so long. As she demonstrates here, this approach can be expanded to all types of pain: physical, psychological, and spiritual. Cohen—a certified massage and movement therapist and Zen teacher—proposes a radically liberating alternative to the usual desperate search for pain relief: paradoxically, she says, release from suffering lies in paying closer attention to it. When we keep pain at bay, we keep pleasure at bay, too. The two are interdependent, and our ability to experience each is totally dependent on our understanding of the other. “Enrich your life exponentially,” Cohen advises. If your pain is one of the ten things you are aware of, then it constitutes a tenth of your total awareness. Expand your awareness to a hundred things, however, and your pain is only a hundredth of your awareness. With stories, strategies, exercises, and an awareness born of long Zen practice, Cohen shows us how to tap into that enrichment—and how we can lead a satisfying and even joyful life in the very midst of pain.

  • Author : Elise Title
  • Publisher : Minotaur Books
  • Release : 2007-04-01
  • ISBN : 1429981814
  • Pages : 388 pages

Download or read book Inside Out written by Elise Title and published by Minotaur Books. This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Natalie Price, who first appeared in Elise Title's acclaimed Killing Time, runs Horizon House, a halfway house for about-to-be-released convicts in the Massachusetts prison system. A young woman in a man's world, Nat is constantly under the gun - sometimes literally - to keep things running safely for inmates and employees. The lastest inmate to enter Horizon House is Lynn Ingram, a transsexual who was convicted of manslaughter but always claimed self-defense. Her trial a few years earlier was a media circus, and the press attention has started back up since the news of her transfer. Just days into her transfer, Lynn is beaten into a coma. Nat is fiercely determined to protect her charge and discover what happened, and begins to look deeper into Lynn's life with the help of Boston Homicide Detective Leo Coscarelli, with whom Nat is more emotionally involved than maybe she should be, seeing as how the mother of Leo's child is also one of the inmates at Horizon House. Before they can get very far in their investigation, though, it begins to seem that Natalie and Leo have a determined killer on their hands, and more than Lynn's life is at stake.

Book Experiencing ACT from the Inside Out

Download or read book Experiencing ACT from the Inside Out written by Dennis Tirch and published by Guilford Publications. This book was released on 2019-09-03 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book invites therapists to enhance their effectiveness "from the inside out" using self-practice/self-reflection. It leads therapists through a structured three-stage process of focusing on a personal or professional issue they want to change, practicing therapeutic techniques on themselves (self-practice), and reflecting on the experience (self-reflection). Research supports the unique benefits of SP/SR for providing insights and skills not readily available through more conventional training procedures. The approach is suitable for therapists at all levels of experience, from trainees to experienced supervisors"--
