The Art of Narrative Therapy - Retelling Our Stories to Heal Our Lives

Pasquale De Marco

Sinopse

In this transformative book, we embark on a journey of self-discovery and healing through the power of narrative therapy. Drawing inspiration from real-life stories, we explore how the stories we tell ourselves about our lives shape our experiences and influence our well-being.

Narrative therapy is a collaborative approach that empowers individuals to challenge and rewrite the unhelpful stories that hold them back. It recognizes that people are not simply victims of their circumstances or past experiences, but rather active participants in the stories of their lives. With the guidance of a skilled therapist, individuals can uncover new perspectives, reframe their experiences, and create new, more empowering narratives.

Through engaging case studies and practical exercises, readers will learn how to:

* Identify the stories that are causing them distress
* Challenge and deconstruct these stories
* Develop new, more helpful stories
* Take action to create a more fulfilling life

Narrative therapy can be used to address a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship problems, and addiction. It can also be helpful for people who are struggling with life transitions, such as divorce, job loss, or retirement.

Whether you are facing a specific problem or simply seeking greater fulfillment in your life, this book offers a roadmap for change. With compassion and insight, it guides readers on a journey of self-discovery, helping them to rewrite their stories and create a life that is truly their own.

This book is an essential resource for anyone seeking to overcome adversity, heal from trauma, and live a more meaningful and authentic life. It is a testament to the power of narrative therapy and its ability to transform lives.

Social Value

Benjamin M. Anderson

Social Value: A Study in Economic Theory Critical and Constructive is a book written by Benjamin M. Anderson and was first published in 1911. 
In this book, Anderson delves into the concept of social value and how it relates to economic theory. He argues that social value is not determined solely by the market forces of supply and demand, but rather is influenced by factors such as social needs, public opinion, and ethical considerations. Anderson also discusses the role of government in creating and maintaining social value and argues that it has a responsibility to ensure that resources are allocated in a way that benefits society as a whole. 
Overall, "Social Value" was a pioneering work in the field of social economics, which seeks to understand how economic theory intersects with social and ethical considerations. While it may not be as widely known as some of Anderson's other works, such as "The Value of Money," it is still considered an important contribution to economic theory and is studied by scholars in the field.

For the Bees - A Handbook for...

Tara Dawn Chapman

A handbook for what to expect the first year of beekeeping and beyond. 
 
 
 
The path to becoming a successful beekeeper begins with a deep understanding of the bees themselves. Taking an approach that is both holistic and practical, Tara Chapman, founder and operator of Austin's beloved Two Hives Honey, begins with a primer on honey bee biology and nutrition as well as beehive architecture. (Did you ever wonder why honey combs are composed of tiny hexagons?) A little scientific knowledge goes a long way: a beekeeper who understands how these fascinating creatures work will be better equipped to recognize a particular colony's needs, make sound decisions when the unexpected happens, and adapt their care regimen to changing conditions. Moving beyond the basics, Chapman shows potential beekeepers how to spot pests and diseases; manage swarms (those bees aren't angry; they're just looking for a good home); and, of course, harvest delicious homegrown honey. 
 
 
 
Imbued with the joy of the beekeeping journey, For the Bees provides practical visual explanations through appealing illustrations, that, alongside Chapman's own stories from the bee yard, share the charms of these essential insects.
