Monsters of the Upside Down, beware! Travis Langley (author of the acclaimed Batman and Psychology) returns with a group of expert contributors to explore these and other questions to shine a light on true human nature through the Netflix series and cultural phenomenon Stranger Things.

John Homans adopted his dog, Stella, from a shelter for all the usual reasons: fond memories of dogs from his past, a companion for his son, an excuse for long walks around the neighborhood. Soon enough, she is happily ensconced in the daily workings of his family. And not only that: Stella is treated like a family member - in ways that dogs of his youth were not. Spending humanlike sums on vet bills, questioning her diet and exercise regimens, contemplating her happiness - how had this all come to pass, when the dogs from Homans's childhood seemed quite content living mostly out in the yard?

Every individual owes it to himself to find the right work and the right mate, because these are fundamental needs of every human being. Lacking them, life is a failure; possessing but one of them, life is half a failure. To obtain and apply the very fullest knowledge toward the attainment of these two great requisites should be the aim of every person. Only those men and women whose natures automatically encourage each other in the doing of the things each likes to do, in the way each likes to do them, can be happy together.

Every individual should find a vocation furnishing one of the three kinds of work for which he has the greatest ability. Then he should go into the particular branch of that vocation which is best adapted to his personality, training, education, environment and experience. To be a success, you must produce something out of the ordinary for the world. To know what this is, classify the kinds of activities you take to naturally. You can be a star in some line that calls for those activities.

Dieser Vortrag vermittelt Ihnen Insiderwissen erster Klasse über die Wirkungszusammenhänge von NLP. WAS NLP ist, können Sie in jedem Buch darüber lesen. NLP ist jedoch nicht gleich NLP.

Too loud. Too shrill. Too far. Too much. Despite the systematic chipping away at our voices, autonomy, and rights, women who demand more - or even just enough - continue to be pushed aside, talked over, and dismissed. From unbridled online abuse to the unspoken societal rules that dictate who can express anger, when you're a feminist the personal is political...and it's time we all embrace feminism as a matter of survival.

In Finding Truth in Fiction, two media psychologists reveal that there's much more to our desire to seek out stories in film, TV, and books than simple diversion - fiction can help us find truth in our real lives. Whether you consider yourself a fan of popular media or whether you find yourself thinking of a particular fictional scene for inspiration, you are not alone. Though some assume that interest in a fictional world is a sign of psychological trouble, the authors enthusiastically disagree.

Nena Schink ist süchtig. Ihre Droge: Instagram. Alles beginnt mit einem Experiment: Für das Jugendportal vom Handelsblatt soll sie selbst zur Influencerin werden. Nena, die sich sonst wenig um die Meinung anderer schert, bettelt nun bei ihren Freundinnen um Likes und Kommentare. Sie räkelt sich vierzig Minuten lang im Bikini auf einer Wassermelonen-Luftmatratze, die sie nur fürs Foto mit in den Urlaub genommen hat. All das kostet sie Zeit. Lebenszeit. Zwei Stunden täglich. 14 Stunden wöchentlich. 672 Stunden jährlich. Das sind 28 Tage, ein ganzer Monat.

Das Politikbuch für die Generation Smartphone. Bijan Kaffenberger ist 29, seit vielen Jahren politisch aktiv - und er hat Tourette. Seine körperlichen Tics hielten ihn aber nicht davon ab, seinen Weg zu gehen. Bijan ist entschlossen, die Welt zu verbessern. Aber irgendwie scheint er in seiner Generation mit dieser Einstellung ein Sonderling zu sein: Seine Altersgenossen gehen selten zur Wahl und interessieren sich zu wenig für Politik. Woran liegt das?

As a progressive commentator on Fox News and now CNN, Sally Kohn has made a career out of bridging intractable political differences and learning how to talk respectfully with people whose views she disagrees with passionately. Her viral TED Talk on the need to practice emotional - rather than political - correctness sparked a new way of considering how often we amplify our differences and diminish our connections. But these days even famously 'nice' Kohn finds herself wanting to breathe fire at her enemies.

Ödipus Suite: Ein Kulturbeitrag ist trotz alles philosophischen Tiefgangs ein Selbsthilfe-Essay. Selbsthilfe ohne Bewusstmachung der kulturellen Strukturen, in die unser Leben eingebettet ist, kann nicht überzeugen. Menschliche Größe kann nicht erreicht werden, indem wir uns über die Kultur hinwegsetzen, sondern indem wir die Kultur, die wir internalisiert haben, hinterfragen und bewusst machen. 

Oedipal Hero: The Hidden Side of Glory (Scholarly Articles, Vol. 20) - 2019 Apple Books Edition - is a study on a particular not yet elucidated problem of psychiatry. ‘Oedipal Hero’ is a term I have forged for an individual, usually of male sex, who suffers from a specific pathology that comes from a combination of unresolved Oedipus Complex and Narcissism. In my view, modern psychiatry has just begun to identify this problem, and my approach to scientifically and psychologically outline this pathology is therefore to be seen as a pioneering work.  

From moral panics about immigration and gun control to anxiety about terrorism and natural disasters, Americans live in a culture of fear. While fear is typically discussed in emotional or poetic terms‚ as the opposite of courage or an obstacle to be overcome‚ it nevertheless has very real consequences in everyday life. Persistent fear negatively affects individuals' decision-making abilities and causes anxiety, depression, and poor physical health. Furthermore, fear harms communities and society by corroding social trust and civic engagement.

Researchers are now applying the lens of science to study heroism for the first time. How do biology, upbringing, and outside influences intersect to produce altruistic and heroic behavior? And how can we encourage this behavior in corporations, classrooms, and individuals? Elizabeth Svoboda explains how our genes compel us to do good for others, how going through suffering is linked to altruism, and how acting heroic can greatly improve your mental health.

How do we make the judgment call between self-interest and caring for others? Drawing on the latest scientific research and interviews with social scientists, spiritual leaders, ex-cons, altruists, and philosophers, Matousek examines morality from a scientific, sociological, and anthropological standpoint. Each chapter features a series of questions, readings, interviews, parables, and anecdotes that zoom in on a particular niche of moral inquiry, making this audiobook both utilitarian and fun.

The approach of this book to healing the abuse pattern is mainly focused upon establishing a strong identity, building soul values, and realizing a high level of personal autonomy.
