  Is CBT an effective form of therapy for children?Absolutely YES!  
  In recent years into the scientific community has grown a body of proofs that supports this statement. 
  Sometimes, as adults, we forget that children can experience some tough emotions or horrible situations. We write them off cause they are “young and resilient,” but that’s the wrong thing to do. Things that happen during childhood will have lasting effects, and it can cause them some serious problems later in life. 
  The goal of this book is to help children work through these things by using CBT. This is a workbook, so it mixes theorical concepts with practical exercises: parents and kids can step by step become familiar with CBT concepts and train their skill together, playing and learning new ways to approach modern life and its obstacles.  
  Here the main conditions that are treated in this book:ADHD (attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder) Mood DisordersEating DisordersOCD (obsessive-compulsive disorder)PSTD (posttraumatic stress disorder) Self-Harm 
  The role of mindful practice is crucial into this self-improvement journey: It doesn’t matter how old your child is; kids can benefit from practicing mindfulness; it can help to reduce their anxiety and increase their happiness. 
  Over time, cognitive behavioral therapy can guide children through the process of generating more realistic versions of situations and provide the tools necessary to cope with them. Kids can begin to understand that negative emotions will pass, much like a dark cloud on a sunny day!

  A defense of the dying art of losing an afternoon—and gaining new appreciation—amidst the bins and shelves of bricks-and-mortar shops. 
  Written during the pandemic, when the world was marooned at home and consigned to scrolling screens, On Browsing’s essays chronicle what we’ve lost through online shopping, streaming, and the relentless digitization of culture. The latest in the Field Notes series, On Browsing is an elegy for physical media, a polemic in defense of perusing the world in person, and a love letter to the dying practice of scanning bookshelves, combing CD bins, and losing yourself in the stacks.

  The Golden Age Restored is a stunning piece of alchemical work that is vivid in its descriptions and a Jungian utopia for dream analysis and analogy of the individuation process.Originally written in 1622 by a German physician and alchemist under the pseudonym Henry Madathanas, The Golden Age Restored was published publically in the Musaeum Hermeticum (1625) and later translated into English by Arthur Edward Waite in his work The Hermetic Museum, Vol. I (1893). Waite's version of the text has been diligently edited by Jones so that it can be easily digested by modern readers.Jones has also included a foreword introducing the text and diligently footnoted the work to give meaning and context to the original writing.

  As a Russian recruit in World War II, Ivan Makarov witnessed General Chuikov pull out his pistol and shoot their regimental commander as a traitor. That was on his first day at the front. Thrown into an open field to face German tanks and artillery fire, with only rifles and machine guns to defend themselves with, almost 2,000 men of his regiment were wiped out in only six days at the Eastern Front. At this rate, Ivan struggled to comprehend how he would survive the hundreds of battles that lay before him, with death seeming to be the only certainty. 
   
   
   
  In his raw and trenchant memoir, Ivan recounts the terror and despair faced by a Red Army soldier on the Eastern Front. He has no sympathy for Stalin and his incompetent commanders, who sought awards and recognition at the expense of their soldiers' lives. He simply wanted to serve his country. 
   
   
   
  It is rare to find first-hand accounts of the Great Patriotic War from Red Army soldiers, as many did not survive to tell the tale. For the first time, Ivan reveals his gripping recollections of battles, times, places, and people encountered throughout World War II, from when he was drafted in 1941 until their victory in 1945. These recollections he dared not put on paper until 1992.
