Psychological Aspects In Time Of Pandemic

Juan Moisés De La Serna

Publisher: Tektime

Summary

After the very positive reception to the article entitled “Cual es el papel del psicólogo ante el nuevo Coronavirus (COVID-19)?” (“What is the role of psychology in the face of the new Coronavirus (COVID-19)?”) published in La Cátedra Abierta de Psicológia y Neurociencias on 12th February 2020,
and the general interest evoked amongst fellow psychologists and other people with an interest in psychology, I have decided to produce this book, which addresses the subject of the psychological perspective in times of a pandemic. Despite the fact that information concerning health crises such as COVID-19 is very recent and in some cases quite changeable, I am going to present a work based on current data sourced principally from scientific publications, and which will include, from the same sources, statements from various experts. A book accessible to all those who wish to delve into the psychological aspects of a mass phenomenon in times of a health crisis, as in the case of COVID-19.

Available since: 11/12/2020.

The Real Business of IT - How...

Richard Hunter, George Westerman

If you're a general manager or CFO, do you feel you're spending too much on IT or wishing you could get better returns from your IT investments? If so, it's time to examine what's behind this IT-as-cost mind-set.In The Real Business of IT, Richard Hunter and George Westerman reveal that the cost mind-set stems from IT leaders' inability to communicate about the business value they create—so CIOs get stuck discussing budgets rather than their contributions to the organization.The authors explain how IT leaders can combat this mind-set by first using information technology to generate three forms of value important to leaders throughout the organization:● Value for money when your IT department operates efficiently and effectively● An investment in business performance evidenced when IT helps divisions, units, and departments boost profitability● Personal value of CIOs as leaders whose contributions to their enterprise go well beyond their area of specializationThe authors show how to communicate about these forms of value with non-IT leaders—so they understand how your firm is benefiting and see IT as the strategic powerhouse it truly is.

Hypnosis for Social Anxiety - A...

James Mesmer

The mixture of hypnosis and social anxiety disorder is part of a broader movement that moves from conventional medicine to self-help for many conditions.
Given that social anxiety can be permanently removed from the life of the health industry, it is only reasonable for the patients to pursue a second view from outside the medical area-i.e. themselves.
For many years hypnosis has been used in many therapeutic forms of treatment, including anxiety, for a variety of illnesses and conditions. Online self-help guides mainly drive the current trend towards self-hypnosis.
Since the most common concerns are the fears of being judged by others, one of the main aims of conventional drugs and therapy is to relax a patient's mind and body to the degree that obsessive thought can be managed. Calming of the mind and body is the embodiment of the hypnotic approach for the proponents of the association of hypnosis and social anxiety disorder. With many of the internet self-hypnosis guides, people with social anxiety can now find much of their cure on their schedule and in their way.
Do you feel anxious around crowds? Have a hard time dealing with meeting new people? With the help of Motivational Hypnotherapy, you can overcome social anxiety and create social confidence. It's time to let your true self shine!
