Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Download or read book Panic Free written by Tom Bunn and published by New World Library. This book was released on 2019-04-30 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “HURRY, BUY THE BOOK AND TRANSFORM YOUR LIFE.” — Marla Friedman, PsyD, PC, board chairman, Badge of Life What if you could stop panic by tapping into a different part of your brain? After years of working to help sufferers of panic and anxiety, licensed therapist (and pilot) Tom Bunn discovered a highly effective solution that utilizes a part of the brain not affected by the stress hormones that bombard a person experiencing panic. This “unconscious procedural memory” can be programmed to control panic by preventing the release of stress hormones and activating the parasympathetic nervous system. This process, outlined in Panic Free, sounds complicated but is not, requiring just ten days and no drugs or doctors. Bunn includes specific instructions for dealing with common panic triggers, such as airplane travel, bridges, MRIs, and tunnels. Because panic is profoundly life-limiting, the program Bunn offers can be a real life-changer.

Download or read book Hyperbole and a Half written by Allie Brosh and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013-10-29 with total page 288 pages.

Book excerpt: #1 New York Times Bestseller “Funny and smart as hell” (Bill Gates), Allie Brosh’s Hyperbole and a Half showcases her unique voice, leaping wit, and her ability to capture complex emotions with deceptively simple illustrations. FROM THE PUBLISHER: Every time Allie Brosh posts something new on her hugely popular blog Hyperbole and a Half the internet rejoices. This full-color, beautifully illustrated edition features more than fifty percent new content, with ten never-before-seen essays and one wholly revised and expanded piece as well as classics from the website like, “The God of Cake,” “Dogs Don’t Understand Basic Concepts Like Moving,” and her astonishing, “Adventures in Depression,” and “Depression Part Two,” which have been hailed as some of the most insightful meditations on the disease ever written. Brosh’s debut marks the launch of a major new American humorist who will surely make even the biggest scrooge or snob laugh. We dare you not to. FROM THE AUTHOR: This is a book I wrote. Because I wrote it, I had to figure out what to put on the back cover to explain what it is. I tried to write a long, third-person summary that would imply how great the book is and also sound vaguely authoritative—like maybe someone who isn’t me wrote it—but I soon discovered that I’m not sneaky enough to pull it off convincingly. So I decided to just make a list of things that are in the book: Pictures Words Stories about things that happened to me Stories about things that happened to other people because of me Eight billion dollars* Stories about dogs The secret to eternal happiness* *These are lies. Perhaps I have underestimated my sneakiness!

Download or read book The New Theory of Confidence written by Elaine Sihera and published by . This book was released on 2018-12-19 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elaine Sihera's New Theory of Confidence©, developed over the past 20 year, is based on hundreds of confidence quiz analyses together with the results of a more recent online survey of hundreds more. Dr. Sihera takes a familiar, but highly misunderstood term, and explains it in a simple way that allows anyone to understand themselves and their routine behaviours, especially how much their level of confidence dominates how they see the world, react to it, and affects their treatment of others. She deftly demonstrates the origins of Confidence, how it is boosted, maintained, and lost; how routine habits actually reduce, or increase, its level, and its true power over self-esteem. Gradually, and with numerous examples, she skilfully reveals how Confidence profoundly influences everything we do, even without us realising it.There is something for everyone among the pages, including:* The three key drivers that maintain, and destroy, Confidence;* The importance of childhood experience, and subsequent relationships, in the development of Confidence;* How Confidence mirrors self-esteem;* The strong influence of Confidence on personal achievement; * When, and how, we actually lose Confidence;* Why the usual confidence tips that focus mainly on 'positive thinking', and changing specific actions, won't really help;* The quiet way Confidence controls intimate relationships, and gradually obstructs them;* How negative perception, and striving for perfection, can damage Confidence permanently. Readers will also learn about the crucial role confidence plays in personal perception, assertiveness, achievements and success, and in the quality of relationships,, as reflected in personal decisions, choices, and the language they use. By the end of the book, readers can expect a deeper understanding of the nature of confidence and should feel more knowledgeable and empowered to apply it beneficially to their own lives. There are also three self-assessment quizzes and a summary of the latest online Confidence survey analysis.Not a book to be missed!

Download or read book Moody Bitches written by Julie Holland and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2015-03-03 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A groundbreaking guide for women of all ages that shows their natural moodiness is a strength, not a weakness As women, we learn from an early age that our moods are a problem, an annoyance to be stuffed away. But our bodies are wiser than we imagine. Moods are a finely tuned feedback system that allows us to be more empathic, intuitive, and aware of our own capabilities. If we deny our emotionality, we deny the breadth of our talents. Yet millions of American women are medicating away their emotions with psychiatric drugs whose effects are more far-reaching than most of us realize. And even if we don’t pop a pill, women everywhere are numbing their emotions with food, alcohol, and a host of addictive behaviors that deny the wisdom of our bodies and keep us from addressing the real issues we face. Psychiatrist Julie Holland knows there is a better way. In Moody Bitches, she shares insider information about the drugs we’re being offered and the direct link between food and mood, and she offers practical advice on sex, exercise, and sleep strategies, as well as some surprisingly effective natural therapies. In the tradition of Our Bodies, Our Selves, this groundbreaking guide will forge a much needed new path in women’s health—and offer women invaluable information on how to live better, and be more balanced, at every stage of life.
