Beschreibung

Codependency Explained offers a clear path to understanding and overcoming unhealthy relationship patterns. The book explores how codependency, often rooted in childhood experiences and dysfunctional family relationships, leads to sacrificing personal needs for others. Did you know codependency was initially studied in families dealing with addiction, but now applies to various relationship dynamics? This book uniquely guides readers in identifying codependent behaviors, understanding their origins, and implementing recovery strategies.

 
The book progresses from defining codependency and differentiating it from healthy helping to exploring its roots in family systems. It then provides practical tools for recovery, such as setting boundaries and practicing self-care. A key focus is on building healthy, interdependent relationships where mutual support doesn't sacrifice individual well-being.

 
By using psychological research, case studies, and exercises, Codependency Explained empowers readers to break free from negative relationship patterns, cultivate healthier communication, and enhance self-worth.

Anxiety Transformed - Prayer...

X. Nader Sahyouni

Knowing what the Bible says about fear doesn’t always help us feel less anxious. Prayer does not always help either. This book explores the spiritual practices and scriptures that can counteract how anxiety works in the brain. When facing anxiety, some forms of prayer are more helpful than others for each person. This is true both spiritually and psychologically. But here’s help in discerning which practices are most useful in dealing with immediate anxiety, other practices for dealing with root causes, and further suggestions that promote long-term freedom from anxiety’s debilitating effects. These practices can deepen our relationship with God and help reduce anxiety at the same time. Anxiety Transformed: Prayer that Brings Enduring Change brings together insights from spiritual formation, psychotherapy, and neuroscience, as well as the author's personal journey with God through periods of anxiety. These concepts are integrated into a model of life-changing spiritual and psychological transformation.

Crossing the Line - Finding...

Sarah Towle

It was family separation and “kids in cages” that drove Sarah Towle to the U.S. southern border. On discovering the many-headed hydra that is the U.S. immigration system—and the heroic determination of those caught under its knee—she could never look away again. Crossing the Line: Finding America in the Borderlands charts Sarah’s journey from outrage to activism to abolition as she exposes, layer by “broken” layer, the global deterrence to detention to deportation complex that is failing everyone—save the profiteers and demagogues who benefit from it. 
Deftly weaving together oral storytelling, history, and memoir, Sarah illustrates how the U.S. has led the retreat from post-WWII commitments to protecting human rights. Yet within the web of normalized cruelty, she finds hope and inspiration in the extraordinary acts of ordinary people who prove, every day, there is a better way. By amplifying their voices and celebrating their efforts, Sarah reveals that we can welcome with dignity those most in need of safety and compassion. In unmasking the real root causes of the so-called “crisis” in human migration, she urges us to act before we travel much farther down our current course—one which history will not soon forgive, or forget.

Iván Illich

This recording has been digitally produced by DeepZen Limited, using a synthesized version of an audiobook narrator’s voice under license. DeepZen uses Emotive Speech Technology to create digital narrations that offer a similar listening experience to human narration.  
 
Schools and universities support misleading notions of 'progress' and development, fostered by the belief that ever-increasing production, consumption and profit are proper yardsticks for measuring the quality of human life. Our universities are the recruitment centres for the personnel of the consumer society, certifying citizens for service, while at the same time disposing of those judged unfit for the competitive rat race. In this bold and provocative book, Illich suggests some radical and exciting reforms for the education system.
