Self Help Mental Health

Deşi de-a lungul timpului problematica minciunii a fost dezbătută mai degrabă de filozofie şi religie, avem acum o altă abordare – din perspectiva unui psihiatru cu o remarcabilă deschidere interdisciplinară. Un tur de orizont asupra naturii umane, un dialog deschis între psihologie şi religie. Cazurile clinice prezentate aici, manifestări ale răului în viaţa cotidiană, deşi la prima vedere pot fi catalogate drept maladii psihice, la o analiză psihiatrică atentă refuză să se înscrie în categoriile standard ale psihologiei sau psihiatriei.

The mind is a marvel. It's at the centre of our most rewarding experiences. It lets in awe and laughter, love and wisdom, and helps us overcome life's great trials. It's our greatest asset, but it can also be our greatest adversary, allowing in self-doubt, anxious thoughts and depression. It can magnify our fears and undermine our best intentions, and lead us into life's darkest corners. Based on James O'Loghlin and Professor Ian Hickie's popular podcast, Minding Your Mind is an exploration into everything you've ever wanted to know about how the mind works.

În viața de zi cu zi, trăim o multitudine de schimbări: ne mutăm într-o casă nouă, ne schimbăm jobul, trecem la o altă orientare religioasă sau politică, ni se adâncesc ridurile de pe față sau încărunțim, modul în care percepem schimbările se schimbă și tot așa. Toate aceste schimbări apar de-a lungul vieții, în timp ce noi suntem uneori conștienți și alteori inconștienți de ele. Ce înseamnă, de fapt, schimbarea? Și, oare, avem control deplin asupra schimbărilor din viața noastră? Și de ce ni se întâmplă câteodată să simțim dorința de schimbare foarte acut?

I think it will help them to regain control of their lives and to feel calm and confident in themselves.
