The Hidden Self - Enriched edition

William James

Beschreibung

In "The Hidden Self," William James delves into the intricacies of human consciousness, exploring the duality between the public personas we project and the private selves we harbor. Employing a contemplative and engaging literary style, James intertwines philosophical inquiry with psychological analysis, inviting readers to reconsider their understanding of identity and selfhood. This work emerges from the broader literary context of the late 19th century, a period rich in psychological exploration, making James's insights particularly relevant as he grapples with the implications of a fragmented self in a rapidly modernizing world. William James, a prominent figure in the realms of psychology and philosophy, was instrumental in introducing pragmatism and functionalism to the American intellectual landscape. His extensive academic background, combined with personal reflections on his own struggles with identity, informed his exploration of the hidden aspects of the self. This dual perspective as both a scholar and a seeker of truth allows readers to appreciate the depth of his inquiry into the inner workings of the mind. "The Hidden Self" is an essential read for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of the complexities of human identity. James's masterful prose and profound insights will resonate with readers from various disciplines, from psychology to philosophy, offering a thought-provoking journey into the layers of self and the often unseen aspects that shape our lives.

Nazis after Hitler - How...

Donald M McKale

The stories of thirty war criminals who escaped accountability, from a historian praised for his “well written, scrupulously researched” work (The New York Times).   This deeply researched book traces the biographies of thirty “typical” perpetrators of the Holocaust—some well-known, some obscure—who survived World War II. Donald M. McKale reveals the shocking reality that the perpetrators were rarely, if ever, tried or punished for their crimes, and nearly all alleged their innocence in Germany’s extermination of nearly six million European Jews. He highlights the bitter contrasts between the comfortable postwar lives of many war criminals and the enduring suffering of their victims, and how, in the face of exhaustive evidence showing their culpability, nearly all claimed ignorance of what was going on—and insisted they had done nothing wrong.   “McKale ends the book with a haunting question: whether life would be different today if the Allies had pursued Holocaust criminals more aggressively after WWII. History buffs and students of the Holocaust will be fascinated.” ―Publishers Weekly   “Gripping and important reading.” —Eric A. Johnson, author of What We Knew

Mindfulness for Women with ADHD...

Deepak Bhosle

Introduction to ADHD in Women
Though ADHD is more commonly diagnosed in boys and men, it affects girls and women as well. A recent study found that girls with ADHD are more likely to have anxiety and mood disorders, as well as problems with social interactions. They are also more likely to have lower self-esteem and problems with body image.
There is still a lot we don't know about how ADHD affects women and girls. In particular, we need more research on how best to treat the unique symptoms that affect them. However, there are some treatments that have been shown to be effective for both genders. One such treatment is mindfulness meditation.Treatment for ADHD in women
While medication may be the most talked about treatment for ADHD, there are other options that can be helpful. Treatment for ADHD in women often includes therapy, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and/or mindfulness meditation. In a landmark study at the UCLA in 2007, 24 adults with ADHD took part in an 8 week programme of regular guided meditations. Participants reported improvements in their anxiety and depressive symptoms along with improvements in ADHD symptoms and in test performance on tasks measuring attention and cognitive inhibition.
My hope is that through regularly listening to the guided meditations in this audiobook, you can also benefit from an improvement in your symptoms.Guided meditation book for ADHD and women
There are 4 meditations in this audiobook, which I hope will help you relax, focus and live a happier life. The topics are selected to be a cross section of relaxation, and mindfulness practice, that, through regular practice and usage, could help you, step by step, manage your ADHD.
