Описание: Learn how therapy can help you create the life you desire. Ready to Talk: A Companion Guide to Psychotherapy is a hands-on guide for anyone currently engaged in psychotherapy or considering it for the first time. It's also well-suited for those who've tried psychotherapy in the past but were dissatisfied with results. As an experienced psychotherapist, author Mary Sanger has often heard questions such as, "How does therapy work?" and "How long will I need to be in therapy?" Of course, the answers are different for everyone but Sanger recognized in her own practice that her clients could not only enhance but also expedite their therapy if they had ongoing access to some basic, pragmatic information about how the therapeutic process works. In straightforward language and an easy-to-read format, Sanger explains how one's past may inform one's present, but that it doesn't have to rule it. Essentially, each of us is the author of our own story. Ready to Talk helps you get the most out of therapy as quickly as possible. In Ready to Talk, Sanger discusses in detail the difference between simply "feeling better" (which frequently occurs in the early stages of therapy) and "getting better" (which creates lasting positive changes but requires commitment and regular client participation). With an emphasis on the Family Systems Theory developed by Dr. Murray Bowen, Sanger streamlines the process of knowing and understanding the basic self - providing questionnaires, client examples and interactive exercises that give the therapeutic client opportunities to "do the work" between sessions as well as thoughtfully prepare for appointments so that the client can to make the most of them. Readers will learn how to challenge current beliefs that are no longer serving them well, recognize and change unhelpful thought patterns and self-defeating behaviors, manage emotions so that relationships are more enjoyable, and understand how others' beliefs and emotions don't have to control their lives. It's an indispensable book for those seeking a healthier, richer, and more pleasurable daily life.

Описание: SEVENTY years a showman. Seventy years! A long, long day is waning at last. Here in the peaceful shadows of the Garden of Life I pause awhile. I want to drink in the scene. I want to realize the full meaning of it all. Rest-yes, I can rest now. The way has been long. It has often been weary. A showman's life, my friends, is not all glory. Beneath the glitter and the tinsel is many a heartache. The open road is often strewn with thorns. And now the journey is nearly ended. Far away in the west I see the setting sun. The garden is hushed in sleep. Ay! The showman's day is gone. The shutters are up. The camp fire, long lighted, is dying away. In its glowing embers I see strange faces. They are the faces of the Past. Tell us the showman's tale, you say. And why not? The very thought of it brings back to my ears the jingle of bells. The dim figures before me turn into a thousand shapes and fancies. Tell you the showman's tale? Ay, that I will. Once more I hear the blare of music and the sound of drums. I catch the laughter of merry children. Walk up! Walk up! Walk up! This way for one of the most singular stories ever told by living man! This way for a tale of strange things, scenes, and adventures!

Описание:

"The Pivot of Civilization" was published in 1922. It contains Margaret Sanger's belief that civilization rises or falls on how it views the 'people problem.' It wasn't simply the fact that there were too many people. The kind of people roaming the planet were also a problem. What kind of people? Sanger says it explicitly: feeble-minded, defective, moronic, epileptic people. What should be done with them? They should be put into camps. They should be sterilized. They should be segregated. Does this sound familiar? It is but one small step to add: "They should be exterminated." 10 years later, Sanger introduced her 'Plan for Peace' (included in this book) which made similar calls. So it was that some of the most devilish ideas carried out by the Nazis not more than a decade later were just as popular in America. Indeed, it appears the Nazis may have gotten their ideas from American eugenicists Sanger's book will give you a new perspective on the intellectual climate in the early 1900s and a new understanding of contemporary events and issues.
