Author: Jeffrey Zaslow
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 1101553634
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
The New York Times bestselling journalist and author of The Girls from Ames, Jeffrey Zaslow, takes us to a multi- generational family owned small-town bridal shop to explore the emotional lives of women in the 21st century. You may not have heard of Fowler, Michigan, much less Becker's Bridal. But for the thousands of women who have stepped inside, Becker's is the site of some of the most important moments of their lives-moments that speak to us all. Housed in a former bank, the boutique owners transformed the vault into a "magic room," with soft church lighting, a circular pedestal, and mirrors that make lifelong dreams come true. Illuminating the poignant aspects of a woman's journey to the altar, The Magic Room tells the stories of memorable women on the brink of commitment. Run by the same family for years, Becker's has witnessed transformations in how America views the institution of marriage; some of the shop's clientele are becoming stepmothers, or starting married life for a second time. In The Girls from Ames, beloved author Jeffrey Zaslow used friendships to explore the emotional lives of women. In The Magic Room, he turns his perceptive eye to weddings and weaves together secrets, memories and family tales to explore the hopes and dreams we have for our daughters.

Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
The award-winning New York Times bestseller about the extraordinary things that can happen when we harness the power of both the brain and the heart Growing up in the high desert of California, Jim Doty was poor, with an alcoholic father and a mother chronically depressed and paralyzed by a stroke. Today he is the director of the Center for Compassion and Altruism Research and Education (CCARE) at Stanford University, of which the Dalai Lama is a founding benefactor. But back then his life was at a dead end until at twelve he wandered into a magic shop looking for a plastic thumb. Instead he met Ruth, a woman who taught him a series of exercises to ease his own suffering and manifest his greatest desires. Her final mandate was that he keep his heart open and teach these techniques to others. She gave him his first glimpse of the unique relationship between the brain and the heart. Doty would go on to put Ruth’s practices to work with extraordinary results—power and wealth that he could only imagine as a twelve-year-old, riding his orange Sting-Ray bike. But he neglects Ruth’s most important lesson, to keep his heart open, with disastrous results—until he has the opportunity to make a spectacular charitable contribution that will virtually ruin him. Part memoir, part science, part inspiration, and part practical instruction, Into the Magic Shop shows us how we can fundamentally change our lives by first changing our brains and our hearts.

The Couple's Hypnotic Dance
Author: Dr. Carol Kershaw
Publisher: Awake Press
ISBN: 0990708403
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
Whether gliding across the ballroom floor or arguing across the kitchen table, the verbal and nonverbal language of a couple's interaction constitutes a kind of hypnotic dance. To an outsider, the steps of the dance may seem completely improvised, erratic, and without form. However, there is an intricate pattern, which the dancers themselves may not see—though the steps come easily as soon as the rhythm begins. Herein lies the goal of this extraordinary book: to foster a greater understanding of mutually inspired trance and to generate strategies for eliciting positive change in marital interaction while respecting the depth of meaning in each partner’s unconscious choreography pragmatic yet richly imaginative, Dr. Kershaw builds upon, breaks away and then comes back to the work of Milton Erickson, weaving together theory, application, and demonstration to form a multidimensional perspective on working hypnotically with couples The therapist’s ability to translate the text—and the all-important subtext—of the couple’s communication is integral to effective therapy. Each of the ten chapters provided will add to the therapist’s fluency in this often-elusive vocabulary. “This is a ground-breaking book for therapists interested in applying Ericksonian approaches with couples. It offers a well-written balance of clear theory and practical techniques. I highly recommend it!” — Stephen Gilligan, Ph.D. “This is a dancing and entrancing book about the trance of the marital dance, à la Milton Erickson. Following Erickson, Dr. Kershaw depathologizes and resacrilizes the marital unconscious as a resource for healing marriages…Buy, read, and enjoy.” — Donald S. Williamson, Ph.D., Past President, AAMFT; Department of Family Medicine, Baylor College of Medicine “Marital partners often trigger in each other resourceless states—negative trance-like experiences in which partners feel devoid of satisfactory solutions. Carol Kershaw maps these interactional loops and provides Ericksonian strategies to help couples make their marriage entrancing. Therapists of all persuasions are sure to benefit from this important book.” — Jeffrey K. Zeig, Ph.D., Director, The Milton H. Erickson foundation “Dr. Kershaw takes the basic principle of entrancement and develops a potent theory and practice of shaping the underlying forces to help therapists work with couple systems…This is a clearly conceived, well-articulated, beautifully written book!” — Joseph C. Zinker, Ph.D., Author of Creative Process in Gestalt Therapy “…offers new steps and movements for many marital therapists that are set to the melody and rhythms of Ericksonian hypnosis. It offers that rare combination of theory, methods and examples written clearly and simply. I find myself imagining what it might be like to try these movements at some time in the future…and noticing how my work with couples is already change…” — Anna Beth Benningfield, Ph.D., President-Elect, AAMFT “Dr. Carol Kershaw’s highly readable [book] is an excellent resource for any psychotherapist. Her clear understanding of Milton Erickson’s basic therapeutic premises and work in hypnosis serve an underpinnings for the development of relevant and effective therapy techniques…” — Betty Alice Erickson-Elliott, M.S., L.P.C. “I highly recommend this book to professionals who are interested in broadening their skills to include Ericksonian methods, as well as to health professionals who are already versed in the work of Dr. Erickson. There is much to be learned form the presentation of Dr. Kershaw.” — Roxanna Erickson Klein
