A raw, vulnerable account of the trauma inherent in caring for an addict, Finding Myself in a Nightmare: A mother’s…
healing journey through her daughter’s addiction is the story of one mother’s experience as she woke to the truth, learned to navigate the pain, and realized she had to heal herself from years of self-loathing in order to positively affect her daughter's recovery. Over a period of five years, Judi Turkheimer rode a roller coaster of strong emotion as she breathed in the very real possibility of losing her daughter. There were many days fraught with fear, hopelessness, and anguish. As Judi began to do the hard work of healing, feelings of joy and hope started to come out from the shadows. Through lies and loss, denial and disgust, rehab and relapse, and finally awareness and acceptance, Judi learned that unconditionally loving her daughter necessitated not only tough love, but also self-love. Without loving herself, she knew she was of no use to anyone else. Intended to validate, support, and encourage, Finding Myself in a Nightmare is a story of triumphs, mistakes, pain, discovery, and trust. As Judi takes us into her home and heart, we learn about her biases, her resistance, and her ignorance. Willing to do what was needed to help her child, Judi invites us to accompany her on the journey. Eventually concluding she would be alright, whatever the outcome for her daughter, Judi offers the tips and tools that kept her from going insane. Reminding herself to be grateful, set boundaries, take small steps, and be present in the moment became a full-time job. Finding Myself in a Nightmare is a book about loving an addict, helping an addict, and the search for strength and unconditional love at a soul level. If you love an addict, this book is for you. If you struggle to find love of self, this book is for you. If you want to learn to love unconditionally, this book is for you.

The visionary behind the million-strong IF:Gathering challenges Christian women to transform their outlook and their lives by interrupting their spiraling…
thoughts and realizing their God-given power to think differently. &“A must-have resource for anyone looking to get control of their thoughts.&”—Lysa TerKeurst, #1 New York Times best-selling author and president of Proverbs 31 Ministries Are your thoughts holding you captive? I&’ll never be good enough. Other people have better lives than I do. God couldn&’t really love me. Jennie Allen knows what it&’s like to swirl in a spiral of destructive thoughts, but she also knows we don&’t have to stay stuck in toxic thinking patterns. As she discovered in her own life, God built a way for us to escape that downward spiral. Freedom comes when we refuse to be victims to our thoughts and realize we have already been equipped with power from God to fight and win the war for our minds. In Get Out of Your Head, Jennie inspires and equips us to transform our emotions, our outlook, and even our circumstances by taking control of our thoughts. Our enemy is determined to get in our heads to make us feel helpless, overwhelmed, and incapable of making a difference for the kingdom of God. But when we submit our minds to Christ, the promises and goodness of God flood our lives in remarkable ways. It starts in your head. And from there, the possibilities are endless.

Enric Corbera nos explica cómo ver la crisis como una oportunidad para cambiar nuestra forma de pensar y crecer. Aunque…
pueda parecer contradictorio, la premisa de este libro no puede ser más contundente: el fracaso es éxito, pues son dos polaridades del mismo espectro, el espectro de la abundancia, del logro. Si aceptas el fracaso como una parte bendita del proceso, una parte que te ayuda a tener más éxito, experimentarás cómo es el sabor del éxito que viene y entonces sabrás que nunca puedes fracasar, nunca. En un mundo con cambios traumáticos que hacen tambalear nuestra realidad, Enric Corbera nos propone que veamos esta crisis como una oportunidad y que, en lugar de escondernos, vivamos cualquier experiencia dolorosa plenamente, reflexionando para qué está frente a tu vida, qué lecciones contiene y a qué liberación conlleva. La resistencia al cambio, a la reflexión, nos conduce a un estado mental de sufrimiento. La no aceptación de la crisis, agarrarse a un lamento que se prolonga en el tiempo, envenenará nuestra mente y anquilosará nuestro cuerpo. El sufrimiento siempre es una opción, moldeada por la no aceptación y por querer que las cosas sean como a uno le gustaría que fueran. No hay mayor enfermedad. La pregunta entonces es clara: ¿estás preparado para crecer?

A 'dark night of the soul' is not a psychological syndrome, but a quest for meaning during life's darkest hours:…
the loss of a loved one, the end of a relationship, ageing and illness, career disappointments or just an ongoing dissatisfaction with life. Thomas Moore's extensive experience as a psychologist and theologian has taught him that the dark night is a challenge to restore ourselves and to become someone of substance, depth and soul. By using these trying times as an opportunity to reflect and delve into the soul's deepest needs, we can find a new understanding of life's meaning. Dark Nights of the Soul has its roots in a favourite chapter in Thomas Moore's million copy bestseller, Care of the Soul. In this beautifully-written and thought-provoking work he explores our contemporary anxieties and insecurities and shows how these metaphoric dark nights can become transforming rites of passage.

Western therapeutic approaches have often put considerable emphasis on building self-esteem and enhancing a positive sense of self. This book…
challenges the assumption behind this approach. Most of us protect ourselves against being fully alive. Because we fear loss and pain, we escape by withdrawing from experiences and distracting ourselves with amusements. We fall into habitual ways of acting and limit our experience to the familiar. We create an identity which we think of as a 'self', and in so doing imprison our life-energy.For 2500 years Buddhism has developed an understanding of the way that we can easily fall into a deluded view. It has shown how the mind clings to false perceptions and tries to create permanence out of an ever changing world. Written by a practising therapist and committed Buddhist, this book explores the practical relevance of Buddhist teachings on psychology to our everyday experience. By letting go of our attachment to self, we open ourselves to full engagement with life and with others. We step out of our self-made prison.

A bold new book reveals how we can tap the intelligence that exists beyond our brains—in our bodies, our surroundings,…
and our relationshipsUse your head. That&’s what we tell ourselves when facing a tricky problem or a difficult project. But a growing body of research indicates that we&’ve got it exactly backwards. What we need to do, says acclaimed science writer Annie Murphy Paul, is think outside the brain. A host of &“extra-neural&” resources—the feelings and movements of our bodies, the physical spaces in which we learn and work, and the minds of those around us— can help us focus more intently, comprehend more deeply, and create more imaginatively. The Extended Mind outlines the research behind this exciting new vision of human ability, exploring the findings of neuroscientists, cognitive scientists, psychologists, and examining the practices of educators, managers, and leaders who are already reaping the benefits of thinking outside the brain. She excavates the untold history of how artists, scientists, and authors—from Jackson Pollock to Jonas Salk to Robert Caro—have used mental extensions to solve problems, make discoveries, and create new works. In the tradition of Howard Gardner&’s Frames of Mind or Daniel Goleman&’s Emotional Intelligence, The Extended Mind offers a dramatic new view of how our minds work, full of practical advice on how we can all think better.
