Healing Emotional Wounds by David G. Benner Pdf

Though emotional pain constitutes an inevitable part of life, not only can it be healed, it can be the soil out of which we grow into greater wholeness and wellbeing. This book arose not simply out of the author's work with others but out of lessons learned as he worked his way to healing and forgiveness associated with his own emotional wounds as well. In helpful, practical language that is filled with real-life examples, Healing Emotional Wounds examines the inner course of events that predictably follows experiences of emotional wounding. This includes a discussion of the ways in which we attempt to cope with hurt, focusing on common but counterproductive coping strategies that actually impede healing. It then examines in detail the emotional, intellectual, and volitional tasks that are involved in healing emotional wounds, each presenting concrete steps that we can take to help ourselves and others experience healing and gain freedom from bondage to our wounds. Such freedom does not involve escape from unpleasant experiences or difficult circumstances, but release from their tyrannizing inner consequences. This also provides the possibility of living a more fulfilling and significant life because of these experiences.

When the Past Is Present by David Richo Pdf

In this book, psychotherapist David Richo explores how we replay the past in our present-day relationships—and how we can free ourselves from this destructive pattern. We all have a tendency to transfer potent feelings, needs, expectations, and beliefs from childhood or from former relationships onto the people in our daily lives, whether they are our intimate partners, friends, or acquaintances. When the Past Is Present helps us to become more aware of the ways we slip into the past so that we can identify our emotional baggage and take steps to unpack it and put it where it belongs. Drawing on decades of experience as a psychotherapist, Richo helps readers to: • Understand how the wounds of childhood become exposed in adult relationships—and why this is a gift • Identify and heal the emotional wounds we carry over from the past so that they won't sabotage present-day relationships • Recognize how strong attractions and aversions to people in the present can be signals of own own unfinished business • Use mindfulness to stay in the present moment and cultivate authentic intimacy

No More Tears by C. S. Mcgraw Pdf

Life is not known to be easy. By the end of the day, you are bound to have a few nicks and tears on your ego. Usually, if you scrape your knee or cut your hand, you immediately treat it with first-aid. So why not do that for your emotional wounds, too? Emotional wounds often activate the same pathways in the brain as physical wounds, meaning they cause us just as much real pain as a physical hurt would. Therefore, part of self-care really calls for treatment of all emotional wounds. Many of us fail to treat our emotional wounds, however, because we are afraid to face the pain. Maybe the pain is traumatic, or maybe it is humiliating. We act in denial but this only hurts us more in the end. Unhealed emotional wounds can have a terrible effect on the sanctity of our lives. They can manifest in many ways, from overeating to addiction to relationship issues and low self-esteem. Stop the pain now. You don't need to live this way. You can take control of your life by healing your emotional wounds and ending the pain and the tears. This book is your guide to facing the pain. Why keep crying when you can address your pain and heal it yourself? Healing emotional wounds is not easy, but it is worth it. With the advice in this book, you can easily learn how to heal your wounds, change your thinking, and tackle life with a fresh, healthy mindset.

Understanding and Healing Emotional Trauma by Daniela F. Sieff Pdf

Understanding and Healing Emotional Trauma is an interdisciplinary book which explores our current understanding of the forces involved in both the creation and healing of emotional trauma. Through engaging conversations with pioneering clinicians and researchers, Daniela F. Sieff offers accessible yet substantial answers to questions such as: What is emotional trauma? What are the causes? What are its consequences? What does it mean to heal emotional trauma? and How can healing be achieved? These questions are addressed through three interrelated perspectives: psychotherapy, neurobiology and evolution. Psychotherapeutic perspectives take us inside the world of the unconscious mind and body to illuminate how emotional trauma distorts our relationships with ourselves and with other people (Donald Kalsched, Bruce Lloyd, Tina Stromsted, Marion Woodman). Neurobiological perspectives explore how trauma impacts the systems that mediate our emotional lives and well-being (Ellert Nijenhuis, Allan Schore, Daniel Siegel). And evolutionary perspectives contextualise emotional trauma in terms of the legacy we have inherited from our distant ancestors (James Chisholm, Sarah Blaffer Hrdy, Randolph Nesse). Transforming lives affected by emotional trauma is possible, but it can be a difficult process. The insights shared in these lively and informative conversations can support and facilitate that process.This book will therefore be a valuable resource for psychotherapists, psychologists, counsellors and other mental health professionals in practice and training, and also for members of the general public who are endeavouring to find ways through their own emotional trauma. In addition, because emotional trauma often has its roots in childhood, this book will also be of interest and value to parents, teachers and anyone concerned with the care of children.

Using the Greek Goddesses to Create a Well-Lived Life for Women by Martha Beck Pdf

This book brings to life the meaning of the stories of the seven goddesses of Greek mythology. Each goddess represents a “sacred calling,” a way of life whose goal is to live for the sake of something greater than oneself. Athena is the goddess of wisdom and justice; Artemis is the woods woman who protects the natural world; Demeter is the goddess of the fertility of the earth and the birth and nurturing of children; Hera is the wife of Zeus, the king, who dedicates her life to creating a high quality of public life through nurturing various community activities; Aphrodite is the goddess of creativity; Persephone is the victim who was raped by Hades and abducted to the underworld where she punishes those who victimized others while alive; and Hestia is the contemplative, she who reflects upon human affairs and “sees” how all the parts fit a larger whole. The book will allow readers to recognize themselves and their own sacred passions in these stories. Once recognized, women can educate themselves and each other. They can use the wisdom represented in Greek mythology to create meaningful and complete lives in the context of a culture that is still dominated by men and their passions. In this way, women will be liberated to do everything they can to leave a better world behind for their children, grandchildren and future generations.

The Role Death Plays in Life by Robert R. Leichtman,Carl Japikse Pdf

It is just as important to take good care of ourselves emotionally as it is physically, but most folks do not know how or what to do. So they let old issues of anger, grief, shame, guilt, and remorse build up in their emotions, until it is too late. In two brilliant essays, the authors explore what it means to establish emotional control and heal nagging wounds. The first essay is "The Nature and Purpose of the Emotions." The second is "Cultivating Tolerance and Forgiveness." They first appeared in The Art of Living series and are reprinted here. Healing Emotional Wounds not only shows us how to recognize the damage we have done to our emotions, but also how to heal them and restore balance within our consciousness.
