Summary

Biofeedback Therapy introduces a powerful, non-invasive technique for managing stress, improving health, and gaining control over physiological responses. Biofeedback allows individuals to monitor bodily functions like heart rate and muscle tension, thereby learning to consciously influence them. This process can be particularly effective in managing stress-related disorders and chronic pain.

 
Imagine reducing anxiety by simply observing and adjusting your heart rate, or alleviating headaches by consciously relaxing tense muscles. The book progresses systematically, beginning with fundamental principles and techniques before exploring specific applications in stress management, pain relief, and overall health improvement.

 
It highlights biofeedback's integration with psychology, neuroscience, and medicine, demonstrating its broad applicability. By presenting scientific research alongside practical applications and case studies, the book offers a balanced and accessible approach to understanding and implementing biofeedback for improved well-being.

Understanding Gender Dysphoria -...

Mark A. Yarhouse

Foreword Reviews' INDIEFAB Honorable Mention
Genuine Compassion, Expert Understanding—Explore the New Edition of Understanding Gender Dysphoria
Few topics spark more debate today than gender identity, fueling intense discussions across social, political, and cultural spheres. Complex issues like gender dysphoria are often oversimplified into slogans and sound bites, overlooking the lived experiences of those affected and making understanding even more difficult in an increasingly divided discourse.
Mark Yarhouse, an expert in sexual identity and therapy, challenges the church to rise above the political hostilities and listen to people's stories. In Understanding Gender Dysphoria, Yarhouse combines Biblical principles and scholarly research to offer a Christian perspective on transgender issues that eschews simplistic answers and appreciates both psychological and theological complexity. The result is a book that engages the latest research while remaining pastorally sensitive to the experiences of each person.
In this updated edition, you'll find

- updated sources and references,
- language that reflects the most recent Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5-TR), and
- new content on more recent trends, including rising numbers of young people identifying as transgender and non-binary.
If you are a pastor, counselor, or someone simply seeking to better understand individuals navigating questions of gender identity, now is the time to act with compassion and courage. Understanding Gender Dysphoria is an essential guide for those who wish to approach this topic with empathy and informed insight. Order your copy today and answer the call to come alongside those on the margins as they resolve their questions and concerns about gender identity.

Spirit Voices - The Mysteries...

David Shi

A guide to authentic North Asian Shamanism, past and present 
 
 
  
The word shamanism is frequently bandied about but rarely used accurately. Shamanologist Nicholas Breeze Wood coined the following definition: "A shaman is someone chose by the spirits [typically at/before birth] and who can go into a controlled and repeatable deliberate trance state, during which they: A) experience 'spirit flight,' where they go to meet the spirit worlds and meet spirits, who they either fight with, negotiate with, or trick, in order to create change in this physical world, or B) are often taken over/possessed by the spirits (normally ancestral shaman spirits, or local land spirits) while in this physical world—the spirits using the shaman's voice and body to heal, or give advice to members of the shaman's community.  Without the spirits, and their blessing, a shaman can not exist or function. Without the trance state, it is not shamanism." 
 
 
 
Author David Shi, for whom these are family traditions, explores the history and practice of shamanism. What is it? Where is it from? How does one become a shaman? Shi guides listeners through unfamiliar territory—the landscape of North Asia—and through what are largely hidden and unfamiliar traditions. Spirit Voices takes and in-depth look at three main cultural shamanic traditions: Turkic, Mongolic, and Tungus.

Trust Violation - Betraying...

Cito Harder

Trust is the cornerstone of human relationships, whether personal, professional, or societal. It is the belief that others will act with integrity, honor their commitments, and respect our boundaries. Trust provides a sense of security, allowing us to open ourselves up to others, share our vulnerabilities, and work collaboratively toward common goals. When trust is present, relationships thrive on mutual respect and understanding. However, when trust is violated, the very foundation of these relationships is shattered.
A trust violation occurs when someone breaks the confidence that has been placed in them. This breach can take many forms: from small betrayals like breaking a promise to major violations such as lying, cheating, or stealing. The consequences of a trust violation are profound, as they not only damage the relationship but also affect the individual’s emotional and psychological well-being. Trust violations often result in feelings of betrayal, hurt, confusion, and a loss of confidence in others. These emotional reactions can be difficult to overcome and may lead to long-lasting consequences.
In this book, we explore the different facets of trust violations, from their causes to their effects, as well as strategies for healing and rebuilding trust. Understanding the nature of trust violations is essential for recognizing how they affect us and those around us. By examining the psychological, emotional, and social consequences of betrayal, we can begin to understand the complexities of the experience and the challenges involved in overcoming it.
