Synopsis

"Summing up in the broadest possible way the characteristics of the religious life, as we have found them, it includes the following beliefs:—
1. That the visible world is part of a more spiritual universe from which it draws its chief significance;
2. That union or harmonious relation with that higher universe is our true end;
3. That prayer or inner communion with the spirit thereof— be that spirit "God" or "law"—is a process wherein work is really done, and spiritual energy flows in and produces effects, psychological or material, within the phenomenal world.
Religion includes also the following psychological characteristics:—
4. A new zest which adds itself like a gift to life, and takes the form either of lyrical enchantment or of appeal to earnestness and heroism.
5. An assurance of safety and a temper of peace, and, in relation to others, a preponderance of loving affections."

William James was an American philosopher, historian, and psychologist, and the first educator to offer a psychology course in the United States. The Varieties of Religious Experience, an investigation of different forms of religious experience, is one of his most influential books.

    Note: This audiobook is included (for free) inside its respective print and e-book versions. 
    When we think about our identity or Self, we often think about it as a single entity. However, having one brain doesn’t imply having only one mind, and truth be told, isn’t it a little perplexing to make such a statement about the fascinating, not fully understood yet, human mind? 
    Richard C. Schwartz's No Bad Parts articulately breaks down the Internal Family Systems Model, providing you with in-depth knowledge of the different parts that make us who we are, how these parts respond to life events and traumas, and how you can reduce their impact on your life to foster inner harmony and well-being. 
    You may have read his work and want a refresher, or you may be completely new to the practice of IFS. Whichever side of the coin you fall on, this workbook can transform your life. It does not only provide all of Schwartz's teachings about trauma in a clear, comprehensive, and condensed manner—without missing anything important!—but it also offers you a safe space to reflect and apply what you’ve learned. 
    In Workbook: No Bad Parts, you’ll get:Chapter-by-chapter summaries that deliver the unbiased highlights of the original book for maximum value; no fuss, just all you need!Concise key takeaways that serve as refreshing reminders for each chapter's core message.Reflection prompts to walk you through mapping, healing, and integrating your parts.Engaging activities that bridge the gap between the book's teachings and your own life.An immersive experience that combines insights, actionable steps, exercises, and questions. 
    Disclaimer: This is an unofficial, third-party, plagiarism-free workbook for Richard C. Schwartz’s book No Bad Parts. Please note that it is NOT the original book.

    “One of the most useful books I’ve read about mental illnesses . . . It demystifies our complicated medical and legal system.” —Pete Earley, New York Times-bestselling author of Crazy: A Father’s Search Through America’s Mental Health Madness 
     
    Finally, a book that explains everything you ever wanted to know about psychiatry! 
     
    In Shrink Rap, three psychiatrists from different specialties provide frank answers to questions such as: 
     
    • What is psychotherapy, how does it work, and why don’t all psychiatrists do it? 
     
    • When are medications helpful? 
     
    • What happens on a psychiatric unit? 
     
    • Can Prozac make people suicidal? 
     
    • Why do many doctors not like Xanax? 
     
    • Why do we have an insanity defense? 
     
    • Why do people confess to crimes they didn’t commit? 
     
    Based on the authors’ hugely popular blog and podcast series, this book is for patients and everyone else who is curious about how psychiatrists work. Using compelling patient vignettes, Shrink Rap explains how psychiatrists think about and address the problems they encounter, from the mundane (how much to charge) to the controversial (involuntary hospitalization). The authors face the field’s shortcomings head-on, revealing what other doctors may not admit about practicing psychiatry. 
     
    Candid and humorous, Shrink Rap gives a closeup view of psychiatry, peering into technology, treatments, and the business of the field. If you’ve ever wondered how psychiatry really works, let the Shrink Rappers explain. 
     
    “A fascinating peek into the minds of those who study minds.” —The Washington Post 
     
    “Most of us easily understand how to treat a broken arm, but a fractured psyche? That’s an entirely different matter. Or is it? This clear-headed presentation of psychiatric services and methods covers a lot of ground and achieves a conversational tone that’s both educational and entertaining.” —Baltimore Magazine
