Børn og unge: personlige og sociale emner: at leve med sygdom og kroniske tilstande

Hvad gør vi, når livet ikke går som vi forventer? Hvad gør vi, hvis vi ikke føler os klar til at sige farvel til livet eller dem, vi holder af?Hvad stiller vi op med savnet af mennesker, vi har mistet?At sige farvel til livet kan føles ubærligt og fylde meget i vores tanker. Men hvad ved vi egentlig om livets afslutning?Svaret er indlysende: Vi ved intet om døden, men alligevel bliver vi bange for det, vi kan forestille os om den. Måske er det mest sandsynlige, egentligt at døden er noget helt andet end det, vi tænker om den. Denne lille bog kan være en døråbner til samtaler om døden for både børn og voksne, der står i svære situationer. Den tilbyder et muligt nyt perspektiv, eller måske blot en pause fra sørgelige eller skræmmende tanker.“Lille Sjæl” er en ikke-religiøs, men spirituelt-filosofisk fortælling om et liv, der er forbundet med en evighed og en kærlighed, der aldrig slutter.

Throughout our years of working to empower people, especially teenagers and young people, we have seen, time and time again, that the term anxiety gets thrown around like it's a disease that someone has and cannot ever get rid of. This just isn't the case. Anxiety is a normal, natural response that every human being experiences at particular times in their lives.It's also important to note that anxiety is an emotion of the future. We can either worry about an unknown "something" happening or focus on a past event that we think will occur again. Basically we fixate on a worst case scenario. This can then stop us from being happy and content in the here and now.Myriam and Allen created "Damn You Anxiety" to empower people to remove the blockages which hold them back and give them a sense of control over the decisions and life that they want to live. This workbook will help you to really pinpoint what triggers you, in a gentle way and release the energy that is bound up in past or current issues by using the Logosynthesis® Basic Procedure. The Logosynthesis® Basic Procedure is a simple model to use and is a powerful tool in helping us manage our anxiety and stress levels.
