Thriving Across the Lifespan and Around the Globe: The Day in the Life Visual Research Approach is the result of several decades of international, pan-disciplinary research-team collaborations using quasi-ecological visual methodologies to investigate the psychosocial development of children in diverse communities. The initial studies highlighted in this work involved filming a Day in the Life of toddlers and primary school children, their families, and schools in diverse communities in Asia, South and North America, and Europe. Filmed in their homes and communities for an entire day, the youngest participants were commonly seen to be thriving in diverse psychosocial domains, such as in their security strivings, emergent literacy and graphic representations, and musicality. Research shows that the nature of a childs development can vary in as many ways as there are diverse contexts. Thriving in the transition from home to primary school is a second developmental milestone investigated in the research. The book serves as an account of the lived experiences of thriving children,among their families, their schools and their communities. The contents give an invaluable insight into the psychology of early childhood while giving the reader an opportunity to understand the resilience of mobile early teenagers as well as independent older adults. The contributions in the book also provide an additional layer to our understanding of visual ethnography by covering such phenomena as agency and communitarianism, spirituality, and the place of humour in the context of challenges encountered across the lifespan. Through presenting quasi-ecological experimental approaches, this reference enhances the readers insight into the texture and nature of thriving in situ, in natural contexts.

Transpersonal psychology is the study of human nature and development that assumes that human beings possess potentials that exceed the limits of ego developed normally. The main goal of transpersonal psychology is to integrate the spiritual experience within a broader understanding of the human psyche and consciousness. Transpersonal Psychology: Altered States of Consciousness, Biofeedback and Neurotechnology introduces the use of biofeedback and neurotechnology for the transpersonal therapist to induce and measure altered states of consciousness to deal with persons having mental conditions. The therapist and the patient can benefit from self-exploration and self-realization of altered consciousness that could be responsible for the mental condition of the patient. Chapters in the book start with an introduction to the theory of consciousness and transpersonal psychology followed by an explanation of the relationship of quantum physics to consciousness model. The book then progresses towards in depth topics such as biofeedback which covers the measurement parameters for understanding consciousness and computer-based technologies that help induce altered states of consciousness. Finally, the book concludes by linking all the concepts together to guide the transpersonal psychologist to measure and support transpersonal psychotherapy through a cybertherapy system. Transpersonal Psychology: Altered States of Consciousness, Biofeedback and Neurotechnology is an ideal guide for the transpersonal psychologist and psychotherapist and the enthusiast who wants to understand the science behind altered states of consciousness from a theoretical and experimental framework.

In recent times, the phenomenon of lone wolf terrorism has been observed with the social assumption that a radicalized individual is only guided by personal, social, and ethnic reasons to commit an extremist act. Nevertheless, there is still much to understand about this phenomenon and improve the methods of investigation or psychiatric interventions. This handbook attempts to cover gaps in understanding the psychiatric aspects of radicalization and the phenomenon of lone-wolf terrorism. Edited by expert clinical psychologists, the contributors have taken both a qualitative and theoretical route to analyze the phenomenon, prompted by their clinical experience with mental health professionals, being in contact with radicalized people living in local towns and prisons.

Stress e emozioni rappresentano due fattori centrali della vita e dellesperienza umana. Sono i due meccanismi principali con cui ci adattiamo al mondo, gestiamo i pericoli, superiamo le sfide quotidiane e affrontiamo le grandi imprese che ci appassionano. Sono anche alla base delle nostre motivazioni e della vita relazionale. Purtroppo, di contro, sono anche gli stessi meccanismi attraverso cui piu spesso di quanto si pensi iniziano i processi che portano a sviluppare malattie e disfunzioni di vario tipo. Infatti, le risposte di stress ed emotive sono fenomeni complessi, che coinvolgono tutte le dimensioni mente-corpo.In questo testo in modo strutturato, scientifico e con taglio pratico analizziamo tutti i sistemi coinvolti: le piu sofisticate interazioni tra postura, emozioni e sistema immunitario; i collegamenti tra il linguaggio con cui si pensa e la capacita di fare previsioni corrette sullefficacia dei propri comportamenti; i brain network che regolano la gestione dei pericoli in relazione agli stati di incertezza e allimmagine di se; i meccanismi corporei, anche quelli meno noti, che regolano in modo significativo le risposte di stress; il metabolismo energetico di ogni cellula, modulato da nutrizione e attivita fisica, che influisce su umore e vitalita; e numerosi altri temi e ambiti applicativi.Questo libro e un manuale pratico, ricco di esempi clinici, che include piu di 30 tecniche ben dettagliate, diversi spunti pratici e numerosi consigli applicativi. Contiene piu di 80 immagini a colori, tra cui illustrazioni esplicative di concetti, modalita applicative delle tecniche pratiche, schemi riepilogativi dei principali meccanismi analizzati nel testo, fotografie che mostrano i cambiamenti che si possono ottenere attraverso specifici esercizi.

Einmal ADHS, immer ADHS? Heilungswege jenseits von RitalinADHS die immer noch unverstandene Krankheit bedeutet fur unzahlige Menschen ein Leben in Unruhe und Zerrissenheit. Dass bei der Aufmerksamkeitsdefizitstorung eine Beeintrachtigung der Neurophysiologie besteht, ist auch fur den Mediziner DR. GABOR MATE unbestritten.

Seine Botschaft an Eltern, Therapeuten, Lehrer und Betroffene: Heilung ist moglich! Sein Rezept: Mehr Einfuhlsamkeit und Fursorge!Mates einzigartiger Therapieansatz verfolgt einen Prozess der Ganzwerdung.

Das Buch ist eine aufschlussreiche Mischung aus Erfahrungsberichten, Fallstudien sowie neuesten Erkenntnissen aus Neurowissenschaft, Familiensystemtheorie und Genetik und beleuchtet diese gravierende Beeintrachtigung nicht zuletzt in Zusammenhang mit gesellschaftlichen Entwicklungen.Der Kanadier DR. GABOR MATE ist Allgemein- und Palliativmediziner, Bestseller-Autor und selbst Betroffener.

This book takes readers, including non-experts, on a rich journey between the past and the present and through neuroscience and seemingly different and irreconcilable cultures and languages towards the integration of a holistic view and awareness of reality, using language that is clear and easy to understand.Divided into five sections, it examines a variety of topics, all of which are linked by a common thread.It starts off by drawing an interesting parallel between Western and Chinese Medicine, science and spirituality, and their respective rules and principles. It then touches upon the origin of the Enneagram, whose roots are millennia-old and whose historical and cultural development is still much-debated, and the resulting psychological paradigm. In so doing, it opens up a new perspective on life creation, our quest for Being and the functions of our vital organs.The understanding of the topic is aided by numerous notes, diagrams and explanatory and summarizing tables.Both valuable and captivating, it will inspire not only the experts, but also all those who seek answers beyond the ordinary.

Scivias, a obra religiosa mais importante da santa e doutora da Igreja Hildegarda de Bingen, compe-se de vinte e seis vises, que so primeiramente escritas de maneira literal, tal como ela as teve, sendo, a seguir, explicadas exegeticamente. Alguns dos topicos presentes nas vises so a caridade de Cristo, a natureza do universo, o reino de Deus, a queda do ser humano, a santifi caço e o fi m do mundo. Enfase especial e dada aos sacramentos do matrimonio e da eucaristia, em resposta a heresia catara. Como grupo, as vises formam uma summa teologica da doutrina crist. No fi nal de Scivias, encontram-se hinos de louvor e uma peça curta, provavelmente um rascunho primitivo de Ordo virtutum, a primeira obra de moral conhecida. Hildegarda e notavel por ser capaz de unir "viso com doutrina, religio com ciencia, jubilo carismatico com indignaço profetica, e anseio por ordem social com a busca por justiça social". Este livro e especialmente significativo para historiadores e teologas feministas.

Uber die Wurzeln des DestruktivenNahezu jedem menschlichen Problem liegt eine Krankung zugrunde. Denn Krankungen greifen unsere Selbstachtung, unser Ehrgefuhl und unsere Werte an. Sie treffen uns im Innersten, konnen uns aus der Bahn werfen, uns krank machen und sogar zu den grausamsten Verbrechen und Kriegen fuhren. Anhand ausgewahlter Beispiele aus der Historie und der Praxis veranschaulicht der Arzt und Psychotherapeut Reinhard Haller, welche Macht Krankungen uber uns ausuben konnen, und wie es gelingen kann, an seelischen Verletzungen nicht nur zu wachsen, sondern auch die eigene Personlichkeit zu starken.

It is a matter of scientific debate to what extent intelligence is hereditary. However, in a relatively broad part of the public the opinion prevails that intelligence is to a large extent hereditary, which means that it can only be minimally improved through social intervention. The book presents the scientific methods for determining heritability in the individual. It is clear from these methods that there can be no general value for heritability of intelligence, and that a heritability value says practically nothing as to the extent to which intelligence can be altered. The volume traces the history of research on the heritability of intelligence. The discipline is manifestly plagued by dubious practices and has caused social damage on a large scale, for example in the context of eugenics, immigration or education policy.
