  The Angry Therapist

  Tackling relationships, career, and family issues, John Kim, LMFT, thinks of himself as a life-style designer, not a therapist. His radical new approach, that he sometimes calls “self-help in a shot glass” is easy, real, and to the point. He helps people make changes to their lives so that personal growth happens organically, just by living.  
    
  Let’s face it, therapy is a luxury. Few of us have the time or money to devote to going to an office every week. With anecdotes illustrating principles in action (in relatable and sometimes irreverent fashion) and stand-alone practices and exercises, Kim gives readers the tools and directions to focus on what's right with them instead of what's wrong.  
    
  When John Kim was going through the end of a relationship, he began blogging as The Angry Therapist, documenting his personal journey post-divorce. Traditional therapists avoid transparency, but Kim preferred the language of ""me too"" as opposed to ""you should."" He blogged about his own shortcomings, revelations, views on relationships, and the world. He spoke a different therapeutic language —open, raw, and at times subversive — and people responded. The Angry Therapist blog, that inspired this book, has been featured in The Atlantic Monthly and on NPR.

  Transcendentalism - The Greatest...

  Transcendentalism is a philosophical and literary movement that emerged in the early 19th century in America, primarily associated with thinkers like Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreau, and Margaret Fuller. It developed as a reaction to the industrial revolution, the growing materialism of society, and the influence of traditional European intellectual thought. Transcendentalism posited that knowledge transcends the senses and that reality can be understood through intuition and spiritual insight rather than empirical observation alone. This belief is rooted in the idea that each individual has access to divine truths through personal experience and direct communion with nature. 
  At its core, Transcendentalism emphasizes the importance of the individual and the power of self-reliance. It encourages a connection to nature as a means of finding spiritual clarity and understanding. Nature, for the transcendentalists, was not simply a physical world to be studied but a living, divine entity that could guide personal growth and spiritual development. They argued that individuals should look within themselves and to nature for truth, rather than relying on societal conventions or religious institutions. 
  The roots of Transcendentalism are found in a variety of sources, including German idealism, Eastern philosophy, and the American Puritan tradition. However, it was through figures like Emerson, who published his seminal essay Nature in 1836, that the movement gained significant traction. Emerson’s ideas about self-reliance, individualism, and the divine presence in nature resonated with many Americans seeking an alternative to the rigid societal structures of the time.

  The Id Paradox

  After disastrous experiences in law and education, Jake Kazmareck tries to disappear into a menial job picking melons on a farm in the Rio Grande Valley. 
  An estranged friend tracks him down, however, with news that their mutual bosom buddy is not dead but rotting in a Mexican prison. The stage is set for his rescue. 
  Jake, Connors McClain, and Artie Cavazos’s friendship was forged during an almost fatal canoe trip in which only Artie’s genius for survival kept them alive. Their brush with death, however, unleashed in Jake a primitive beast that has never stopped plaguing him. 
  A few years later, the three engage in an attempt to rescue Artie’s uncle and family from the Mexican drug cartel that had forced his uncle to work for them. Jake mistakenly attributes their failure, and Artie’s death, to Connors’s betrayal. 
  When Connors later contacts Jake, he shares some startling news. Connors, now the Texas attorney general, has discovered that Artie is still alive and imprisoned in a Mexican jail. 
  The harrowing rescue is successful, but Artie’s experiences have effectively destroyed his spirit. Jake and Connors now reconciled, they enlist the aid of psychiatrist Judith Neuwirth to try to piece back together Artie’s shattered self. 
  In the process, Jake is again confronted with the beast in himself. Will he learn to accommodate it, or will it destroy him? Is it an essential part of us that must be accepted? Or must it be fought to the death?
