  Rational Emotive Behavior...

  Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) is a cognitive-behavioral approach developed by Albert Ellis in the 1950s. It represents a revolutionary shift in the field of psychotherapy, aiming not just to alleviate symptoms, but to foster long-lasting change by helping individuals think and behave more rationally. The primary goal of REBT is to help people understand and identify irrational thoughts and beliefs that lead to emotional distress, then replace those beliefs with more rational, functional alternatives. 
  At its core, REBT rests on the idea that it is not the events themselves that disturb us, but our beliefs about those events. This concept is captured in the ABC model, a foundational element of REBT. According to the model, A stands for the activating event, or the situation that triggers a response. B represents the beliefs we hold about the activating event, which can be either rational or irrational. Finally, C stands for the emotional or behavioral consequences of those beliefs. By recognizing the link between beliefs and emotional outcomes, individuals can learn to challenge and change irrational thoughts that lead to unwanted feelings and behaviors. 
  REBT operates on the premise that people often hold onto irrational beliefs that are unrealistic, extreme, and unhelpful. These beliefs can be categorized into three core demands: the demand for approval from others, the demand for fairness or justice, and the demand for achievement and success. These irrational demands fuel negative emotions like anxiety, frustration, and depression, leading individuals to feel powerless or inadequate.

  'Utterly brilliant - engaging, thrilling, disturbing, revelatory, explosive' GEORGE MONBIOT'This extraordinary book, written with startling honesty and vulnerability, traces Charlie's remarkable journey from deep despair to resistance, reconnection and remedy. If you are ready to channel grief within into action in the world, read on.' KATE RAWORTH, author of Doughnut Economics: Seven Ways to Think Like a 21st-Century Economist'Spinning Out is a salve, weaving together the intricacies of madness underscored by the backdrop of a changing climate. It's an essential and insightful resource in the fight for climate justice.' TORI TSUI, author of It's Not Just You'Heart-rendingly, heart-stoppingly glorious' MANDA SCOTT, author of bestselling Boudica seriesHumanity is driving the earth mad. Now, the earth is driving us mad in return. Charlie Hertzog Young became a climate activist in his early teens. His journey led him onto airport runways and into the halls of power, but also to a serious mental health breakdown. He had to rebuild himself physically and psychologically, before focusing his efforts on collective mental recovery in response to a planet in crisis.Spinning Out explores how climate chaos and the failure of those in power to tackle it are causing an inevitable mental health crisis across the globe. The relationship between the climate and our emotional wellbeing goes far deeper than eco-anxiety. It goes to he roots of our civilisation - its principles, its practices and its false solutions.With testimony from dozens of activists, organisers and researchers across every habitable continent, Spinning Out is a celebration (of other ways to be) and a manual for anyone who wants to fight for a better world, while avoiding burnout and despair.Wedding the needs of the earth with the needs of the human mind, Spinning Out offers a powerful, collective vision for change.

  Geophysics is the branch of Earth sciences that applies the principles of physics to study the Earth's structure, composition, and dynamic processes. It plays a fundamental role in understanding the physical properties of our planet, from the deep interior to the surface and beyond into the atmosphere and magnetosphere. By utilizing various physical measurements and mathematical models, geophysicists investigate phenomena such as earthquakes, gravitational fields, magnetic fields, heat flow, and fluid dynamics. 
  One of the primary objectives of geophysics is to analyze the Earth's subsurface without direct observation, making it an essential tool in fields such as resource exploration, environmental studies, and hazard assessment. Seismic waves generated by natural or artificial sources, for example, allow scientists to infer the structure of the Earth's interior. The variations in Earth's gravity and magnetic fields provide crucial insights into the distribution of mass and the composition of different layers within the planet. 
  Geophysics encompasses a wide range of subfields, each focusing on specific aspects of Earth's physical behavior. Seismology, one of the most well-known branches, studies the propagation of seismic waves to understand earthquakes and the internal structure of the Earth. Geomagnetism examines the Earth's magnetic field, its origins, and its variations over time. Gravimetry focuses on measuring and interpreting variations in the Earth's gravitational field, which can reveal density differences in the subsurface.
