  “What I experienced wasn’t that bad, not bad enough to be real trauma.” Could you be one of the dismissed and ignored trauma survivors? Are you coping with unidentified complex PTSD from early intangible attachment trauma? 
  Author Ricia Fleming was: “It took me 26 years to complete this book,” she says, “because it took me that long – even as a licensed psychotherapist – to acknowledge the seriousness of the category of trauma I came to call naCCT, an acronym for its four characteristics: no physical assault, attachment-based, chronic, and covert. 
  "During those 26 years I often shoved the draft deep into my closet after someone shamed me for thinking such ‘little things’ could be serious enough to cause PTSD.” 
  With no tangible trauma to point to, confusion and self-shaming are normal for adults wounded by early naCCTs such as emotional neglect, gaslighting, or traumatic absence of loving hugs, interest, or understanding; many even deny they’ve been traumatized at all. 
  Yet, realistically, when we’re little, subtle everyday disturbances in our lifeline relationships with mother, father or other caregivers can register on our bodies, minds, and spirits as threats to life itself. In a word, as ‘trauma.’ 
  Whether or not your caregiver was well-intentioned, whether or not you also experienced blatant physical assaults like beatings or incest, the cumulative effect of early naCCTs can cause complex PTSD, leaving you to cope with physical, psychological, financial, and relationship problems and overall lack of fun, meaning, and spontaneity. 
  To meet the unique challenges of this under-explored trauma category, you now have a healing guidebook written by a therapist/survivor just for you. With empowering information, encouragement, and down-to-earth stories, this life-changing book will help you take pride in how well you have managed so far. Then it will provide you with realistic action steps for starting to feel better right away.

  Psychology is a subject with wide and partially unexplored horizons. The psychological well-being of an individual is in fact dependent on every single influence. Starting in the womb, continuing with education, hobbies, views, knowledge, feelings and learned values. These influences provide namely for positive development or also for negative development. These opposites of the positive and negative development describe thereby roughly seen finally the psychology. This tries to explain behaviors of an individual and offers the possibility to overcome fears, for example.To ensure a good introduction to the subject, it is important to mention that one groups the generic term of psychology into many detailed aspects and subtopics. In this context, new findings regularly contribute to the development and progress of psychology. For example, new methods and new therapies are developed through advanced brain research and behavioral observations by compiling statistics.

  The only book ever written in the history genre that succinctly tells the progressive and redemptive course of America as revealed in the stories behind the American holidays. 
   
  Ever wonder why everyone wants to immigrate to America? Rediscovering America answers that question, and it’s like no other history you have ever read. More than an account of people, dates, and events, this story is about the hidden  
  hand of a purposeful historical development where the main actors are colorful characters, participating in an American drama of little known but remarkable events where overcoming incredible odds of failure is more unbelievable and  
  engaging than fiction. And while each chapter is a stand-alone tale—some quite wild—about what is behind each of the American holidays, the page- and chapterturning appeal of Rediscovering America is in the narratives that link the holiday  
  stories together, revealing an account of progress and redemption in America covering over four hundred years—never before told in a concise and readable book.

  Sherman Makes Georgia Howl: The...

  Both Grant and Sherman shared the same theory of war: anything that might help the enemy's war effort should be considered a military target. After the Atlanta campaign, Grant explained to Sherman that the Confederates must be “demoralized and left without hope,” and he instructed Sherman, “Take all provisions, forage and stock wanted for the use of your command. Such as cannot be consumed, destroy. Leave the valley so barren that crows flying over it...will have to carry their provender with them.” This strategy sought the total economic collapse of the South, as well as completely disabling the South’s capability of fielding armies. In addition to the wholesale plundering of Southern resources, including taking them from civilians, the Union reversed its policy of swapping prisoners, realizing it had a far bigger reserve of manpower than the South. The Atlanta Campaign was a perfect example of this, as both sides lost about the same number of casualties. By September 1864, however, Sherman still had about 80,000 men, while Hood’s army was reduced to about 30,000. 
  Following the design of Grant's innovative and successful Vicksburg Campaign, Sherman's armies eliminated their need for traditional supply lines by living off the land. 	Ultimately, Sherman’s armies cut a path of abject destruction 60 miles wide and 300 hundred miles long from Atlanta to Savannah, which some likened to a Biblical blight. And as Sherman had intended, he did indeed made Georgia “howl.”  
  Due in large part to the March to the Sea, Sherman remains controversial across much of the United States today. The South considered him akin to a terrorist and adamantly insisted that he was violating the norms of warfare by targeting civilians. In many ways, Sherman is still the scourge of the South nearly 160 years after he vowed to make Georgia howl.

  We are sometimes our own worst enemies, sabotaging our success and with it our chance for lasting happiness and opportunities for personal and professional fulfillment. It's Not Your Fault helps listeners uncover the subconscious reasons they hold themselves back. These blind spots were often created in childhood as coping mechanisms in response to trauma. Rather than teaching tactics that ignore or give surface attention to adverse childhood events, the book lovingly guides listeners to explore the ways these events have impacted their lives and how this knowledge will help them access true transformation. 
   
   
   
  Those who have been let down by traditional therapeutic techniques know that behavior modification doesn't work for everyone. Simply doing things differently while staying the same on the inside might help for the short term, but before long old patterns emerge. Once they decide to get serious about change, however, and stop tweaking habits in the hope it will result in lasting transformation, they can create a life by design instead of default. It takes work, an internal excavation, and Laura comes alongside the listener as a trusted guide who has been where they are now. She provides the tools and anecdotal evidence to show them how to overcome the pain of self-sabotage and create the life they desire.
