En grundbog for gestaltpraktikere, -terapeuter og coaches med gestaltfilosofien som basis. Bogen vil givetvis inspirere til mange faglige overvejelser og drøftelser, hvad angår gestaltterapiens teori og praksis, men henvender sig også til almindelige mennesker, der ønsker at holde sig orienteret om en af de mest vellykkede og effektive psykoterapier i vor tid.

Perle. Her & NU er genudgivet i 2019 på opfordring af flere gestaltinstitutter i DK samt Gestaltakademiet AS i Norge, hvor den indgår i undervisningen.

Denne eklektiske samling af tekster, redigeret af billedkunstnerne Anne-Mette Schultz og Signe Frederiksen, kredser om kunstnerisk uddannelse og pædagogik, med en særlig interesse for vekselvirkningen mellem institutionerne og det kunstneriske arbejde.Det centrale element er interviewet Det som Laurence Rassel får os til at gøre, der portrætterer den belgiske kurator og pædagog Laurence Rassels institutionelle arbejde, blandt andet som rektor på kunstakademiet École de recherche graphique i Bruxelles.Omkring denne samtale danner fire originale bidrag af billedkunstnerne Felis Dos, Katrine Dirckinck-Holmfeld, Pia Rönicke og Stefan Pedersen en subjektiv og lokal kartografi over en form for moduddannelse, der undersøger: Hvordan kan en kunstner gøre? Hvordan kan en kunstner undervise? Hvordan kan institutionen fungere kritisk og tage konsekvensen af det arbejde som produceres inden for dens egne rammer?Bogen er et oplæg til samtale, diskussion og undervisning og er en invitation til alle, der har en interesse i at tænke kritisk over kunstens institutioner.

Kan man lære at holde sit liv ud? ET ÅR I SELVHJÆLPSGRUPPE er en bittersød fortælling om nødvendigheden af at gøre forsøget.Mette fra Østerbro havde altid forestillet sig, at når hun mødte den rigtige mand, fik bil og flyttede ind i det rigtige hus, ville hun være tilfreds. Men hun spiser og drikker for meget, griner for lidt og går tidligt i seng for at slippe for sex med sin kæreste.Den lille stemme siger, at hun skal tage sig sammen. Så Mette går til psykolog og begynder at dyrke yoga i håbet om, at det hjælper. Det gør det ikke.Og så melder Mette sig ind i en selvhjælpsgruppe for at finde ud af, hvad der er galt med hende. Her smider hun tøjet, danser, uden at være fuld, og finder ud af, at en ung troldmand med plantemedicin og frøsekret måske er bedre end en psykolog med gråt hår og gode råd.Men lærer hun også at holde sit liv ud?JO BRAND (f. 1974) er journalist og bor i København. ET ÅR I SELVHJÆLPSGRUPPE er den fritstående efterfølger til ET ÅR I FRIT FALD: forfatterens romandebut og den første bog om den nogle og 40-årige Mette fra Østerbro, nu tidligere single.

I dag er alle enige om, at forbindelsen mellem krop og sind har afgørende betydning for vores trivsel og velvære - såvel fysisk som psykisk. Men hvordan aktiverer man den forbindelse? Dr. Elliott S. Dachers budskab i denne bog er, at vi skal flytte vores opmærksomhed fra det ydre til det indre.Som speciallæge gennem 21 år var Dacher i stand til at lindre sine patienters fysiske lidelser, men han blev i stigende grad frustreret over, at han ikke kunne afhjælpe de underliggende problemer som invaliderende træthed, generel ængstelse eller simrende depressioner. Det bragte ham til Østen, hvor han tog endnu en medicinsk uddannelse og lærte om visdom, medfølelse, lindring af unødige lidelser, og hvordan man generelt fremmer en vedvarende sundhed, en autentisk lykkefølelse og følelsen af ægte helhed.Denne bog viser, hvordan man kan opnå integral sundhed og få glæde af dens mange frugter. Den er bygget på Ken Wilbers integrale teori og er både holistisk, evolutionær, intentionel, personcentreret og dynamisk orienteret i sit syn på menneskelivets fire aspekter. Undervejs lærer vi, hvordan vi skal håndtere og gå frem i forhold til hvert af aspekterne, hvordan vi vurderer samtlige fire aspekter integralt, og hvordan vi tilrettelægger et program for vores personlige integrale praksis, så vi kan gøre fremskridt på lykke-, sundheds- og trivselsfronten.ELLIOT S. DACHER blev uddannet læge i 1970 og arbejdede på fuld tid som speciallæge i intern medicin i 21 år. Han er også forfatter til Whole Healing og Intentional Healing. Dr. Dacher studerer, praktiserer og underviser i dag i principperne for integral sundhed og healing. Han vejleder desuden enkeltpersoner, hvis ambition er at bruge sygdom, lidelse og livet selv som en vej til integral sundhed.

Denne bog præsenterer dig for en revolutionerende ny måde at elske på. For når det kommer til sex, vil de fleste af os gerne have mere. Det store spørgsmål er bare: mere af hvad? David Deidas svar til de af jer, der dybde ønsker mere dybde i jeres sexliv, og som går rundt med en følelse af, at sex burde bestå af mere end bare kortvarig fysisk tilfredsstillelse, er, at tiden er inde til at udforske ens unikke spirituelle seksualitet. Bogen er lavet ud fra målet om, at kærligheden forstørres og bliver til noget hinsides det, to mennesker deler. At sex bliver en total forsvinden ind i kærlighedens fylde, noget, der går ud over den tilfredsstillelse, det giver, når to kroppe gnubber sig mod hinanden, og man nærer følelser for hinanden. Hvert kapitel indledes med en kort erotisk tekst, der belyser en særlig stemning af elskov, og efterfølges af direkte instruktioner, der taler klart og ligefremt til den drivkraft, de to køn hver især besidder, og som er et resultat af, at den feminine del af os længes efter en dybere kærlighed, og den maskuline del kæmper for større frihed. David Deida bringer 30 års erfaring og arbejde med tusindvis af par i spil for at illustrere de veje, vi – som mænd og kvinder – med sindsro kan begive os hen ad i vores bestræbelser på at nå frem til en mere utæmmet lidenskab, samhørighed og spirituel vækst, der rækker ud over nuet og os selv.DAVID DEIDA er internationalt anerkendt som en af de mest indsigtsfulde og provokerende spirituelle lærere i vor tid. Hans mål er at revolutionere den måde, mænd og kvinder vokser spirituelt og seksuelt på. Hans bøger bliver blandt andet betragtet som nogle af de mest originale og autentiske bidrag til personlig og spirituel vækst. Den maskuline mand og Min elskede af ham er allerede udkommet på dansk.

Stress has become a fact of life for far too many people today.Until now, the treatment of stress has mostly focused on behavioral changes, combined with talking about and noticing every thought, feeling, and sensation. But according to the metacognitive approach, this excessive focus on the self is what actually creates the problem. Worrying and ruminating are not simply a symptom of stress, but the causes of stress, preventing stress sufferers from fostering real change. Real change can only occur when the metacognitive management systems underlying behaviour are addressed by focusing not on what, but on how stress sufferers respond to their thinking. The thought is not important, but how they react to it, makes the difference."Treating Stress with Metacognitive Therapy" provides therapists, practitioners and others who work with treating stress, an introduction to metacognitive therapy, showing how this approach can be applied effectively to treat stress-related problems. This book comprises concrete examples of how a course of metacognitive therapy can be planned. The reader is invited into the therapy room to learn: how to apply the exercises of this method; what to remember during the therapy process; and which questions are important to ask the client.

Og gennem børnemeditation og mindfulness styrker vi dit barns tro på, at han eller hun har den indre styrke, der skal til for at bekæmpe sit mørke. Vi giver børnene poweren tilbage. Men husk på, at monstre skal bekæmpes i fællesskab!Bogen er skrevet af forfatter Gitte Winter Graugaard, som er kendt for sine bøger med børnemeditation, der får børn til at sove, herunder bestselleren Børnemeditationerne I mit hjerte, der sælger i tyve lande og psykolog Stine Hæk, som hver dag behandler børn med angst og overbekymring i sin klinik i Silkeborg.

Dit boek helpt therapeuten om schematherapie toe te passen bij cliënten met afhankelijke, vermijdende of dwangmatige persoonlijkheidsstoornissen, ook wel cluster C-persoonlijkheidsstoornissen genoemd. Schematherapie is een zeer effectieve behandelmethode voor cluster C-stoornissen. De meeste literatuur en trainingen op het gebied van schematherapie richten zich echter op de behandeling van de borderline persoonlijkheidsstoornis of andere vormen van externaliserende problematiek. Dit boek laat zien hoe schematherapie effectief toepasbaar is bij internaliserende persoonlijkheidsproblematiek. Schematherapie voor cluster C-persoonlijkheidsstoornissen - Behandeling van afhankelijke, vermijdende en dwangmatige cliënten beschrijft hoe cluster C-stoornissen begrepen kunnen worden in termen van basisbehoeften, schema's en modi. Daarnaast wordt ook beschreven hoe limited reparenting op een andere manier vormgegeven wordt in deze behandeling dan bij meer externaliserende problematiek. Ten slotte worden specifieke knelpunten, varianten en toepassingen van methoden en technieken beschreven die nog niet terug te vinden zijn in andere literatuur over schematherapie. Het boek begint met een beschrijving van onder meer geschiedenis en onderzoek. Daarna gaat het in op casusconceptualisatie en de stap van conceptualisatie naar behandeling. Vervolgens behandelt het de verschillende persoonlijkheidsstoornissen waarbij steeds beschreven wordt hoe methoden en technieken anders toegepast worden in de verschillende behandelfasen. Ten slotte gaat het in op methoden om de gezonde volwassene te versterken en de therapieresultaten in de toekomst te behouden. Het boek bevat veel aansprekende casuïstiek. De auteurs zijn psychotherapeut en gz-psycholoog Remco van der Wijngaart, en klinisch psycholoog Hannie van Genderen.

An age-old approach has quietly been addressing the issues confronting the human condition. An approach that in our science-driven world we have almost forgotten, the heart of the Gospel message. It can no longer be ignored. Our mental and emotional health and well being are being constantly challenged and even under threat, accelerated by the rapid changes to our daily lives brought on by the recent 2020 global pandemic. Times are uncertain. The future is no longer as clear. Therapy has gained rapid traction, promoted as the best evidence-based alternative to medication for addressing the increasing mood and anxiety disorders we are experiencing. While therapeutic approaches have merits in helping to modify or adapt our ways of thinking and behaving, therapy alone cannot fully address the root issues that affect us all. The purpose of this book is two-fold. The first is to explain why therapeutic approaches tend to fall short of effecting lasting change. The second is an attempt to share fresh insights into why the Gospel message is more relevant to us today, the only true therapy for the human soul.

A brave and captivating graphic memoir about the power of therapy to heal anxiety and generational traumaWhen Sacha Mardou turned forty-years-old, she was leading a life that looked perfect on the outside: happily married to the love of her life, enjoying motherhood and her six-year-old daughter, and her first book had just been published. But for reasons she couldn’t explain, the anxiety that had always plagued her only seemed to be getting worse and then, without warning, she began breaking out in terrible acne.The product of a stoic, working-class British family, Sacha had a deeply seeded distrust of mental health treatment, but now, living the life she’d built in the US and desperate for relief, she finds herself in a therapist’s office for the first time. There she begins the real work of growing up: learning to understand her family of origin and the childhood trauma she thought she’d left hidden in the past but is still entangled in her present life.Past Tense takes us inside Sacha’s therapy sessions, which over time become life-changing: She begins to come to terms with her turbulent and complicated upbringing, which centered around her now estranged father, who had a violent relationship with her mother and would later go to prison for sexually abusing her stepsister. With her therapist’s guidance, she sees how these wounds and other generational trauma has been passed through her family as far back as her grandmother’s experiences during The Blitz of World War Two. And she discovers modalities that powerfully shape her healing along the way, including the work of Bessel Van der Kolk and Richard Schwartz (Internal Family Systems).As Sacha’s emotional life begins to unfreeze and she lets go of the shame she’s long held, she realizes that the work she’s doing and her love for her family can ripple outward too, changing her relationships now, and creating a new legacy for her daughter.Bravely told, visceral, and profoundly moving, Past Tense is a story about our power to break free of the past--once and for all--and find hope.
