  It's said that the only constant in life is change. It should be said that obstacles to change are another constant, and they're too often standing between you and a life spent thriving. Whether you're trying to better manage your money, exercise more, or stop addictive behaviors, making positive life changes can be a huge challenge. So, how do you prepare yourself for this journey toward healthy, positive change? 
   
   
   
  The Motivational Interviewing Path to Personal Change combines forty years of research-proven strategies along with skills from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) to help you get started on the path to positive change. Using motivational interviewing (MI) tools, you'll identify specific behavioral targets you would like to work on. You'll also learn to connect with your intrinsic motivation to figure out the "Why?" of your journey, so you can commit to positive behavior changes consistent with your values. Finally, you'll use your newfound skills to maximize your goals, overcome obstacles, and gain a healthier perspective on life.

  What would you do if you wanted nothing to do with what was dangling between your legs? How far would you go? How much humiliation would you suffer? 
    
  All I wanted was to become a woman. They promised help, that they could change me. The interviewer had me perform humiliating tasks for the first piece of the puzzle, I finally sounded like a woman when I spoke! That was step one. I never expected there to be so many steps, never thought they had the ability to change me so gradually, so shamefully. I had told myself that no challenge would be too harsh, but how was I supposed to know just how far they would make me fall? 
    
  PSA: This story contains a man eager to become a woman and take it all. And he will. Take it all, that is. On his knees, on her back, bent over – it will be given freely.

  Bombing Hitler's Hometown - The...

  In April 1945, Linz was one of Nazi Germany's most vital assets. It was a crucial transportation hub and communications center, with railyards brimming with war materiel destined for the front lines. Linz was also the town Hitler claimed as home and had long intended to remake as the cultural capital of Europe, filling its planned Fuehrermuseum with world-famous art stolen from his conquered territories. 
   
   
    
  Inevitably, Linz was also one of the most heavily defended targets remaining in Europe. The airmen of the Fifteenth Air Force were a mix of seasoned veterans and newcomers. As their mission was unveiled in the predawn hours of April 25th, audible groans and muffled expletives passed many lips. The reality of that mission would prove more brutal than any imagined. 
   
   
    
  Drawing on interviews with dozens of America's last surviving World War II veterans, as well as previously unpublished sources, Mike Croissant compellingly relates one of the war's last truly untold stories—a gripping chronicle of warfare, the death of Nazi Germany, and the beginning of the Cold War. It is also a timeless tale of courage and terror, loss and redemption, humanity and savagery.

  Jack Zipes has spent decades as a "scholarly scavenger," discovering forgotten fairy tales in libraries, flea markets, used bookstores, and internet searches, and he has introduced countless readers to these remarkable works and their authors. In Buried Treasures, Zipes describes his special passion for uncovering political fairy tales of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, offers fascinating profiles of more than a dozen of their writers and illustrators, and shows why they deserve greater attention and appreciation. 
   
   
   
  These writers and artists used their remarkable talents to confront political oppression and economic exploitation by creating alternative, imaginative worlds that test the ethics and morals of the real world and expose hidden truths. Among the figures we meet here are Édouard Laboulaye, a jurist who wrote acute fairy tales about justice; Charles Godfrey Leland, a folklorist who found other worlds in tales of Native Americans, witches, and Roma; Kurt Schwitters, an artist who wrote satirical, antiauthoritarian stories; Mariette Lydis, a painter who depicted lost-and-found souls; Lisa Tetzner, who dramatized exploitation by elites; Felix Salten, who unveiled the real meaning of Bambi's dangerous life in the forest; and Gianni Rodari, whose work showed just how political and insightful fantasy stories can be.

  Cognitive Behavioural Therapy -...

  Cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) is a form of psychological therapy. It is not a unitary approach, but instead has evolved through a range of approaches that share a common underpinning model of cognition and behaviour being important in understanding and alleviating psychological distress. While the earliest approaches focused on modifying observable behaviour, later versions emphasized cognitive processes. The third wave approaches in CBT have moved the focus away from the content of an individual's thoughts to their relationship with their thoughts, and the processes underlying thinking. 
   
   
   
  This Very Short Introduction gives an overview of what CBT is, where it came from, what it does, and when it can be used. It explores how one of the driving forces behind CBT's success and continued adaptation has been its basis in empiricism, and analyses how it must continue to evolve to meet future challenges. Freda McManus also discusses how the scale of mental health problems and relative costs of traditional therapy formats have prompted investigations into alternative formats of CBT that have the potential to reach broader audiences, globally. She also considers the challenges of scale in training the workforce required to roll out such interventions, as well as those of determining the best ways of monitoring their competence and effectiveness.
