  Cito Harder

  Psychological manipulation refers to the use of deceptive tactics to influence or control another person's thoughts, emotions, or behavior to achieve personal goals. Unlike straightforward persuasion, manipulation typically involves hidden motives and is often unethical in nature. It can be subtle and difficult to detect, as it operates through psychological pressure rather than overt force or coercion. Manipulators seek to gain an advantage by exploiting others' vulnerabilities, creating confusion, and leading them to make decisions that may not be in their best interest. 
  At the core of psychological manipulation lies the manipulator’s ability to control or influence another’s perception of reality. This is achieved by distorting facts, using emotional triggers, or intentionally withholding critical information. The manipulator may use charm, guilt, fear, or flattery to establish control, making it hard for the victim to recognize the manipulation until significant damage is done. This is particularly dangerous because it often leads to a breakdown of trust and can leave the victim feeling confused, powerless, and emotionally drained. 
  Manipulation can occur in any context—personal relationships, workplaces, politics, or media—and often involves a series of calculated tactics. In relationships, a manipulator might use emotional blackmail or gaslighting to make the victim doubt their own perceptions or question their reality. In business or politics, manipulation might involve misleading promises, biased narratives, or using people as pawns to achieve a specific agenda. Regardless of the setting, the manipulator’s objective is the same: to gain an advantage or achieve a goal without the other party’s full awareness or consent.

  The Legends of the West Point...

  West Point has long been America’s most famous military academy, but in the early 19th century, it was a highly unimpressive school consisting of a few ugly buildings facing a desolate, barren parade ground. Established with just five officers and ten cadets of the Corps of Engineers on March 16, 1802, the Academy was built on a spot just 50 miles north of New York City which had been a key Hudson River military fortress during the Revolutionary War. Cadets attending during the “Point's” first several decades were obliged to maintain their daily regimen knowing the school might shut down at any moment, as the U. S. government frequently questioned why it should provide free education. 
  As it turned out, West Point would become the foremost military academy in the nation, but none of the West Point classes became as famous as the Class of 1846, which boasted more than a dozen future Civil War generals. The Class of 1846 included a shy kid named Thomas Jonathan Jackson who made few friends and struggled with his studies, finishing 17th in his class 15 years before becoming Stonewall. Also in that class was A.P. Hill, who was already in love with the future wife of George McClellan, a young prodigy who finished second in the class of 1846. A popular and mischievous George Pickett would play hooky at the local bar and struggle just to finish last in the class, and the Class of 1846 also churned out critical Union generals like Jesse Reno, Darius Couch, and George Stoneman. 
  Before these men opposed each other on Civil War battlefields, they forged their own friendships and charted their future paths together at West Point and the Mexican-American War.

  Art of Receiving and Giving The:...

  Why would most people endure unwanted or unsatisfying touch, rather than speak up for their own boundaries and desires? It’s a question with a myriad of answers – and one that Dr. Betty Martin has explored in her 40+ years as a hands-on practitioner, first as a chiropractor and later as a Somatic Sex Educator, Certified Surrogate Partner and Sacred Intimate. In her client sessions, she noticed a pattern wherein many clients would “allow” or go along with discomfort or unease rather than speak up for what they wanted or didn’t want. Betty discovered there was a major component missing for people -- the confidence that we have a choice about what is happening to us. 
  In her framework, “The Wheel of Consent®” Betty traces the fundamental roots of consent back to our childhood conditioning. As children, we are taught that to be “good” we must ignore our body’s discomfort and be compliant: to finish our food even if we’re full, to go to bed - even if we’re not tired, to let relatives hug and kiss us even if we don’t want to. We learn that our feelings don’t matter more than what is happening, and that we don’t have a choice but to go along, whether or not we want it. 
  As adults, this conditioning remains with us until we have an opportunity to unlearn it, which is why consent violations are often only called out after the violation has occurred - because we have not been taught or empowered to notice our boundaries, much less value or express our internal signals as the unwanted action is happening. 
  In this book, Betty guides the reader through the Wheel of Consent framework, and shares practices to help us recover the ability to notice what we want and set clear boundaries.
