Summary

This wide-ranging workbook gathers 200 hands-on exercises aimed at helping survivors of post-traumatic stress, anxiety, and painful memories move toward lasting recovery. Based on the Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (TF-CBT) model, it blends psychoeducation, relaxation methods, cognitive coping tools, structured exposure, narrative development, family-based strategies, progress tracking, and relapse prevention. The result is a user-friendly manual that equips both clinicians and self-guided readers with practical tasks to manage stress, ease flashbacks, reduce negative beliefs, and build stronger emotional health.
 
Key Features
 
Accessible Guidance: The content is presented in an approachable manner, with step-by-step instructions and real-world examples. Each module includes worksheets and scripts that can be adapted for children, adolescents, or adults, ensuring the workbook stays relevant across age groups and differing trauma histories.
 
Comprehensive Array of Activities: With 200 exercises grouped into themed chapters, you can quickly locate what suits your immediate needs—relaxation, grounding, tackling nightmares, rewriting traumatic narratives, or involving family members in the process. This wealth of methods allows therapy to remain flexible and dynamic.
 
Evidence-Based Foundations: TF-CBT is a recognised model backed by research, especially for addressing PTSD, anxiety, or complex trauma. Readers will find tasks inspired by established cognitive-behavioural principles, ensuring that interventions align with proven approaches.
 
Structured Format: Many tasks follow a consistent template, outlining the purpose, needed materials, specific instructions, and potential modifications for different clients. This clarity saves time for therapists and helps individuals practise effectively at home.
 
Range of Application: Though originally designed for child and adolescent trauma, TF-CBT also adapts well for adults facing single-incident or prolonged traumas. The text highlights modifications, so each exercise can be reshaped to match the intensity, triggers, and personal preferences of the user.
 
Focus on Long-Term Maintenance: Several chapters discusses relapse prevention, encouraging ongoing reflection, booster sessions, and personal safety plans. This ensures that readers do not merely reduce symptoms but also uphold healthier routines in the future.
 
Supplemental Materials and Measurement Tools: The final sections offer checklists, short scales, and feedback forms to measure progress over time. This fosters accountability and encourages a sense of accomplishment when visible improvements appear.
Available since: 01/22/2025.

    Decades ago, Malcolm X eloquently stated that communities have the legitimate right to defend themselves “by any means necessary” with any tool or tactic, including guns. This wide-ranging anthology uncovers the hidden histories and ideas of community armed self-defense, exploring how it has been used by marginalized and oppressed communities as well as anarchists and radicals within significant social movements of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. 
    Far from a call to arms, or a “how-to” manual for warfare, this volume offers histories, reflections, and questions about the role of firearms in small collective defense efforts and its place in larger efforts toward the creation of autonomy and liberation. 
    Featuring diverse perspectives from movements across the globe, Setting Sights includes vivid histories and personal reflections from both researchers and those who participated in community armed self-defense. Contributors include Dennis Banks, Kathleen Cleaver, Mable Williams, Subcomandante Marcos, Kristian Williams, George Ciccariello-Maher, Ashanti Alston, and many more.

    Mankind has come a long way since he learned how to control fire. And yet now in the 21st century he has created more than fire, he has created chains to bind himself into a system whereby he passes on the control of his own life to others. 
     
    Businesses, religions, royalty’s and governments have all sought to gain power by having control over our mental and physical states. They have utilized our own nature to achieve this. And these powers joined forces into a secret cabal we call the Illuminati. They have created a true Matrix of deceit and we are all being manipulated. 
     
    From the market place to the school, all-manner of magical devices have been dreamed up to entice and entrap us. We have closed our eyes and minds to the truth of the system we are now part of. And because of this we are now totally unaware of the deceit in which we reside. In fact we even perpetuate it by repeating the propaganda of those in power. Almost everything we think and do is the result of illusion created by those in power. 
     
    It is time to unlock these secrets and find freedom.

    The painting of her on the battlefield with only one breast covered and holding a flag is probably one of the most famous paintings from European history. Many people have heard of Joan of Arc, but only few know what she did or how her life was. 
    Joan of Arc (French: Jeanne d' Arc) is a French heroine who was venerated as a saint for her role in the Lancastrian part of the Hundred Years' War. She was born in Domrémy, in the Vosges area of northeast France, to Jacques d' Arc and Isabelle Romée, a peasant family. Joan said she saw visions of the archangel Michael, Saint Margaret, and Saint Catherine of Alexandria telling her to support Charles VII and free France from English supremacy late in the Hundred Years' War. Joan was sent out as part of a relief army to the siege of Orléans by the as-yet-unanointed King Charles VII. After the siege was raised only 9 days later, she rose to fame. 
    She ended up being a sign of the Catholic League in the 16th century, and Napoleon Bonaparte called her a nationwide sign of France in 1803. 
    In 1909, she was beatified, and in 1920, she was canonized. One of France's 9 secondary tutelary saint is Joan of Arc. 
    Since her death, Joan of Arc has stayed a popular character in literature, painting, sculpture, and other cultural works, with many popular authors, playwrights, filmmakers, artists, and composers creating and continuing to produce cultural representations of her.

    The first full history of the highly trained and ruthless civilian volunteers secretly trained across Britain to be deployed in the case of a German invasion.The narrative surrounding Britain’s anti-invasion forces has often centered on ‘Dad’s Army’-like characters running around with pitchforks, on unpreparedness and sense of inevitability of invasion and defeat. The truth, however, is very different.  Top-secret, highly trained and ruthless civilian volunteers were being recruited as early as the summer of 1940. Had the Germans attempted an invasion they would have been countered by saboteurs and guerrilla fighters emerging from secret bunkers, and monitored by swathes of spies and observers who would have passed details on via runners, wireless operators and ATS women in disguised bunkers.  Alongside these secret forces, the Home Guard were also setting up their own ‘guerrilla groups’, and SIS (MI6) were setting up post-occupation groups of civilians – including teenagers – to act as sabotage cells, wireless operators, and assassins had the Nazis taken control of the country.  The civilians involved in these groups understood the need for absolute secrecy and their commitment to keeping quiet meant that most went to their grave without ever telling anyone of their role, not even their closest family members. There has been no official and little public recognition of what these dedicated men and women were willing to do for their country in its hour of need, and after over 80 years of silence the time has come to highlight their remarkable role.
