Facets of Unity
Author: A. H. Almaas
Publisher: Shambhala Publications
ISBN: 0936713143
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 358
Book Description
A “heartily recommend[ed]” text for “Enneagram enthusiasts . . . and followers of every spiritual tradition”—by the creator of the Diamond Approach to Self-Realization (Helen Palmer, author of The Enneagram) Facets of Unity presents the Enneagram of Holy Ideas as a crystal clear window on the true reality experienced in enlightened consciousness. Here we are not directed toward the psychological types but the higher spiritual realities they reflect. We discover how the disconnection from each Holy Idea—defined as an unconditioned, objective understanding of reality—leads to the development of its corresponding fixation, thus recognizing each types deeper psychological core. Understanding this core brings each Holy Idea within reach, so its spiritual perspective can serve as a key for unlocking the fixation and freeing us from its limitations.

Being in Love
Author: Judith Pickering
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317724399
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 299
Book Description
Finding true love is a journey of transformation obstructed by numerous psychological obstacles. Being in Love expands the traditional field of psychoanalytic couple therapy, and explores therapeutic methods of working through the obstacles leading to true love. Becoming who we are is an inherently relational journey: we uncover our truest nature and become most authentically real through the difficult and fearful, yet transformative intersubjective crucibles of our intimate relationships. In this book, Judith Pickering draws comparisons between Bion's concept of becoming in O, and being in love. She searches for pathways that lead away from relational confusion towards the discovery of genuine transformational relationships, and works towards finding better ways of relating to one another. This is achieved by encouraging couples to enjoy the actual presence, humanity, otherness and particularity of each other rather than expecting a partner to conform to our own expectations, projections, desires and presuppositions. Pickering draws on clinical material, contemporary psychoanalysis, cultural themes from the worlds of mythology and literature, and a wealth of therapeutic techniques in this fresh approach to couple therapy. Being in Love will therefore interest students and practitioners of psychoanalysis, psychology, and couple therapy, as well as all of those seeking to be more authentic in their relationships.

Love Does Not Control
Author: Thomas Jay Oord
Publisher: SacraSage Press
ISBN: 1948609878
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 268
Book Description
That love does not control seems obvious to many people. And yet the temptation to control—often with good motives — is strong. The long-term results of yielding to this temptation damage everyone. Contributors to Love Does Not Control explore uncontrolling love and a vision of God as uncontrolling. They do so from their perspectives as therapists, psychologists, and counselors. Writers ponder what uncontrolling love might mean for human healing. Open and relational theology operates as the underlying framework for most contributors. That theology fits nicely with the belief that love is uncontrolling. Open and relational theology rethinks divine power in light of love and postulates what it might mean for creatures to imitate their Creator’s uncontrolling love. The essays in Love Does Not Control are diverse. Readers may discover some differences of opinion as they move from essay to essay. But contributors share in common the quest to explore what uncontrolling love means for issues in counseling, psychology, and/or therapy. These essays have a power that goes beyond mere theoretical reflection. The ideas in these pages have the capacity to transform our living. And even reading Love Does Not Control has the potential to become an exercise in uncontrolling love!

Facets of Emotion
Author: K. R. Scherer
Publisher: Psychology Press
ISBN: 1317785606
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 278
Book Description
First published in 1988. We are presently witnessing a renaissance of research on emotion. In the last 10 years, an increasing number of empirical studies dealing with many different aspects of emotion has appeared. This monograph of research papers counteract the tendency toward dispersion and the lack of published work in this area. A major intent of this volume is to introduce a number of new methodological tools for research on emotion (for example, facet theory, non-metrical regression for patterns, voice resynthesis, and other methods) as well as to reassert the utility of some classical tools of social science research for studies of emotion (e.g., properly constructed questionnaires). In addition, it presents a number of theoretical notions that seem relevant to a systematic study of the emotion process (such as component process theory, a taxonomy of appraisal and coping dimensions, contextual and situational approaches, and inter-channel comparison). It is hoped that the results presented in this volume can serve as hypotheses for further work in this area. In the Appendix several sets of research materials are reprinted to encourage use in student research projects.

There Are More Beautiful Things Than Beyonce
Author: Morgan Parker
Publisher: Tin House Books
ISBN: 1941040543
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 114
Book Description
A TIME Magazine Best Paperback of 2017 One of Oprah Magazine's "Ten Best Books of 2017" "This singular poetry collection is a dynamic meditation on the experience of, and societal narratives surrounding, contemporary black womanhood. . . . These exquisite poems defy categorization." —The New Yorker The only thing more beautiful than Beyoncé is God, and God is a black woman sipping rosé and drawing a lavender bath, texting her mom, belly-laughing in the therapist’s office, feeling unloved, being on display, daring to survive. Morgan Parker stands at the intersections of vulnerability and performance, of desire and disgust, of tragedy and excellence. Unrelentingly feminist, tender, ruthless, and sequined, these poems are an altar to the complexities of black American womanhood in an age of non-indictments and deja vu, and a time of wars over bodies and power. These poems celebrate and mourn. They are a chorus chanting: You’re gonna give us the love we need.

What Is It Then between Us?
Author: Eric Murphy Selinger
Publisher: Cornell University Press
ISBN: 1501718274
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 266
Book Description
Tracing the solitude of the American self, the difference between idolatrous and companionate affection, and the dream of an "America of love," Eric Murphy Selinger shows how such concerns can shape a poet's most intimate decisions about genre and form. His lucid, elegant prose illuminates not only well-known love poets, including Emily Dickinson and William Carlos Williams, but also more unexpected figures, notably Wallace Stevens and Mina Loy. Like the poets he discusses, Selinger refuses to view love reductively. Rather, he takes the impulse to debunk love as part of his subject, whether it crops up in Puritan theology or contemporary literary theory. As he details Whitman's courtship of his readers, weighs the restorations of romance in H. D. and Ezra Pound, and demonstrates the bonds between poets as disparate as Robert Creeley and Robert Lowell, Selinger establishes love poetry as an essential American genre.

333 Facets of Manipulators
Author: Renato Barbosa Moreira
Publisher: RENATO BARBOSA MOREIRA
ISBN:
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 125
Book Description
The book "333 Facets of Manipulators" is an in-depth and detailed exploration of human manipulation, encompassing psychological, social, and neuroscientific aspects. The author, Renato Barbosa Moreira, unfolds the concept of manipulation in several layers, from its presence on the stage of everyday life to the complexities of the manipulator's mind and the strategies to deal with it. The first chapter introduces the world of manipulation, highlighting how it can be compared to an illusion of magic on stage, where reality is distorted to entertain. In real life, however, manipulation is less visible and more insidious, often hiding the truth and limiting freedom of choice. The book addresses the psychology and neuroscience behind manipulation, citing relevant works and studies, such as those by Robert B. Cialdini and Solomon Asch, that show how we are influenced and how our decision-making and emotion brain areas are affected. In the following chapters, Moreira examines the development of the manipulator, from roots in personality and experience to upward in society. It discusses how manipulators gain power in different social spheres and how technology and social media have become new territories for manipulation. The author also explores manipulation in interpersonal relationships, such as in love and family relationships, and in the work environment. The book offers perspectives on how to recognize and protect oneself from manipulation tactics, emphasizing the importance of questioning intentions and consequences and training the "mental immune system." Moreira also addresses the proliferation of manipulative behavior and how society has become accustomed to it, highlighting the role of neuroscience in understanding and combating manipulation. Finally, the author presents strategies for confronting and unmasking manipulators, paths to healing from manipulation, and how each individual can contribute to a less manipulative world. The book closes with reflections on the lessons presented and encourages personal and collective action and change.
