The Discovery of the Self by Elizabeth Severn Pdf

Elizabeth Severn, known as "R.N." in Sandor Ferenczi’s Clinical Diary, was Ferenczi’s analysand for eight years, the patient with whom he conducted his controversial experiment in mutual analysis, and a psychoanalyst in her own right who had a transformative influence on his work. The Discovery of the Self is the distillation of that experience and allows us to hear the voice of one of the most important patients in the history of psychoanalysis. However, Freud branded Severn Ferenczi’s "evil genius" and her name does not appear in Ernest Jones’s biography, so she has remained largely unknown until now. This book is a reissue of Severn’s landmark work of 1933, together with an introduction by Peter L. Rudnytsky that sets out the unrecognized importance of her thinking both for the development of psychoanalysis and for contemporary theory. Inspired by the realization that Severn has embedded disguised case histories both of herself and of Ferenczi, as well as of her daughter Margaret, Rudnytsky shows how The Discovery of the Self contains "the other side of the story" of mutual analysis and is thus an indispensable companion volume to the Clinical Diary. A full partner in Ferenczi’s rehabilitation of trauma theory and champion of the view that the analyst must participate in the patient’s reliving of past experiences, Severn emerges as the most profound conduit for Ferenczi’s legacy in the United States, if not in the entire world. Lacking any institutional credentials and once completely marginalized, Elizabeth Severn can at long last be given her due as a formidable psychoanalyst. Newly available for the first time in more than eighty years, The Discovery of the Self is simultaneously an engaging introduction to psychotherapy that will appeal to general readers as well as a sophisticated text to be savored by psychoanalytic scholars and clinicians as a "prequel" to the works of Heinz Kohut and a neglected classic of relational psychoanalysis.

The Adventure of Self-Discovery by Stanislav Grof Pdf

Here Grof presents a useful model of the psyche—a model extended by his thirty years of studying non-ordinary states of consciousness. It is useful for understanding such phenomena as shamanism, mysticism, psychedelic states, spontaneous visionary experiences, and psychotic episodes. The model is also useful in explaining the dynamics of experiential psychotherapies and a variety of sociopolitical manifestations such as war and revolution. This book might have been entitled Beyond Drugs. The second part describes the principles and process of the non-pharmacological technique developed by the author and his wife, Christina, for self-exploration and for psychotherapy. Grof explores in detail the components of this technique. He describes its method, its effective mechanisms, as well as its goals and potential. Its practice is simple, since it utilizes the natural healing capacity of the psyche.

Short Stories, Essays and Exercises on the Path to Self Discovery by Melinda M. Sorensson Pdf

The mind is a powerful ally for us to live in this world. However given absolute control of our lives, it becomes a silent tyrant.Indeed, there is no master more ruthless, no jungle more wild, and no fire more fierce and consuming than the reactive mind. Therefore the battlefield of the mind is the only one we have to conquer, the only prison we have to walk out of, and then we can realize we have always been free. Freedom is the true nature of our being. This book is a collection of Short Stories, Essays and Exercises which the author wrote over the years as a record of observations on her own journey towards finding the authentic Self.The author wishes to inspire the readers into self inquiry by incorporating her experiences in all the work and distilling those experiences for everyone to try.It is meant to be light reading rather than a textbook."The greatest politeness is free of all formality,perfect conduct is free of concern,perfect wisdom is unplanned,perfect love is without demonstrations,perfect sincerity offers no guarantee." ~The way of Chuang Tzu by Thomas Merton

The "Me" Book by Jane Marin Pdf

Self-discovery begins with desiredesire to understand more about what makes us tick, to break from routine, to heal a hurt, to express ourselves in new ways, to explore our hopes and dreams. Identifying the objects of our desire is important, since our focus has great impact on our attitude and self-awareness, which in turn are directly related to our happiness. In The Me Book: A Journey of Self-Discovery, author, healer, and life coach Jane Marin shows us how to use the combined art forms of journaling, painting, scrapbooking and collage to increase self-knowledge and self-confidence and improve our lives on physical, emotional and spiritual levels. Marin developed the idea of The Me Book while researching her familys history and coming to the realisation of how rewarding it was to discover more about her history and record her own life as well. She realised that using creativity in expressing herself was therapeutic and healing, bringing forth all her positive energies. Marin unearthed the history of the real her, which gave way to life changes both large and small, changes that immediately increased her self-esteem, her health and her perception of her lifes purpose. These are changes any of us can make. All we need are the motivation to begin the journey and the desire to create something truly worthwhilesomething like our own true life.

Through the Mind's Eye: A Journey of Self-Discovery by J.P. Willson Pdf

Depression, self-loathing, unemployment, and destroyed relationships: the effects of drug and alcohol addiction run so much deeper than the morning-after hangover. However, awareness alone will not save the struggling addict, as J.P. Willson reveals in his fearless examination of substance dependency; recovery means doing the mental and emotional work to look inside oneself and discover a way to live as a sober, fulfilled individual in an often challenging world. Through the Mind's Eye: A Journey of Self-Discovery is a thought-provoking and honest examination of the emotional, psychological, and physical ways someone must enact their own healing. As a recovering alcoholic, Willson courageously shares his own story of addiction, as well the ups and downs he experienced along the road to recovery. Packed with astonishing insights about our culture's relationship to alcohol, as well as the lies we tell ourselves in order to keep using, this book will change the way you view addiction. Willson has no qualms about telling the reader how difficult recovery is--and how there is no quick cure-all--but his compassionate, candid reflections help foster the knowledge and will to change.
