Social Identity

In The Healing Otherness Handbook, Stacee Reicherzer-a nationally known transgender psychotherapist and expert on trauma, otherness, and self-sabotage - shares her own personal story of childhood bullying, and how it inspired her to help others heal from the same wounds. Drawing from mindfulness-based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Reicherzer will help you gain a better understanding of how past trauma has limited your life, and show you the keys to freeing yourself from self-defeating, destructive beliefs.

Our sexuality is an integral part of who we are, yet our understanding of sex has been warped by everything from age-old taboos and religious dogma to a popular culture that views sexuality as transactional. With Sex, Health, and Consciousness, Liz Goldwyn, founder of the thriving online platform and podcast The Sex Ed, has created an inclusive, holistic, and much-needed guide to sexual well-being—and the pleasure that’s possible when we embrace our sexuality as a natural part of a healthy human experience.

It’s hard to overstate how much we put pressure on early sexual encounters—and how little real advice is out there. How do I deal when I keep running into my one-night stand? How can I tell if I’m too drunk to have sex? How do I say stop when I’m not really into it? Why do I keep getting all these UTIs? And most of all: Why is so much of sex ed focused on what could go wrong instead of what actually feels good? In this unflinchingly honest guide to hookups and relationships in the twenty-first century, Ali Drucker answers these questions and more.

Está creciendo el interés, la conciencia y la demanda por el conocimiento de que la justicia social es algo que sale de la fe cristiana. Pero esto no es algo nuevo. Por quinientos años la cultura e identidad latina han sido moldeadas por sus desafíos al statu quo religioso, socioeconómico y político, ya sea en oposición al colonialismo español, las dictaduras latinoamericanas, el imperialismo estadounidense en Centro América, la opresión de los trabajadores de campo o la explotación actual de inmigrantes indocumentados.

Wir müssen zuhören, um zu begreifen. Und wir müssen uns die richtigen Fragen stellen und verstehen, was uns Angst macht. Dabei klar und sachlich aufklären und argumentieren. Das alles tut dieses Hörbuch, das mit Dagmar Pauli eine Psychiaterin verfasst hat, an deren Klinik bereits vor 15 Jahren eine regelmäßige trans-Sprechstunde eingeführt wurde.

Il Tantra è la metodologia che permette di purificare l'amore da tutto ciò che lo avvelena. Per capirlo, è essenziale partire da una comprensione fondamentale, ovvero che noi siamo una realtà energetica, ed esiste un'unica energia vitale che opera attraverso di noi. Come Osho spiega, "è la stessa energia vitale che al livello più basso si manifesta come energia sessuale, e al livello più elevato si manifesta come spirituale. Pertanto, secondo me, non esiste opposizione di sorta, nessun conflitto."

The intention of this book is to open up a space for reflection and awareness of some aspects of the vast topic of female psychology, romantic relationships, and regaining your personal power by opening your heart to yourself. The central focus is the subconscious dynamics of female spirituality and the basic male and female archetypes, along with their strengths, fears, and possibilities. This understanding is valuable in order for every partner to become a complete personality who can accept their strengths, as well as their shadow aspects—those that we hide from ourselves.

Muchas personas no llegan a vivir su sexualidad en congruencia con su identidad por haber sufrido traumas sexuales, traumas de relación y traumas de amor. Confunden su identidad con la identificación con otros, en muchos casos con el autor de su trauma. Su sexualidad está marcada por esa identificación. En esta obra el autor, al cual avala una experiencia de veinticinco años como terapeuta, expone que hay muchos más traumas sexuales de los que creemos, puesto que muchas veces los abusos sexuales tienen lugar en el propio seno de la familia.

Аниме — это японская анимация, но в отличие от западной, ориентированной на детей, большинство аниме создается для взрослой или подростковой аудитории и выделяется уникальным стилем рисунка…. Так мы могли бы рассказать об этой книге, но аниме — это уникальное культурное явление со своими жанровыми особенностями, глубокими смыслами и философией. В этой книге вы найдете эссе на совершенно разные темы: подход к дизайну персонажей и "тайные смыслы", особенности романтики и творчества Хаяо Миядзаки.

Wie kann ich verhindern, dass ich zu früh komme? Wie schaffe ich es, überhaupt zu kommen? Warum habe ich so selten Lust? Gianna Bacio bekommt diese Fragen täglich gestellt und stellt fest, dass Sex für viele ein Stressfaktor ist. Etwas zu leisten und darin gut zu sein wiegt oft schwerer als der Genuss und die Freude - wie paradox! Denn die meisten wünschen sich ein leichtes und unbeschwertes Liebesleben. Wie Sex überraschend einfach zu einem lustvollen Erlebnis werden kann, zeigt Gianna Bacio auf ihre typische Art: ehrlich, direkt und auf Augenhöhe.

From Madness to Mindfulness sets out to help women empower themselves to transition out of a state of sexual madness and into a state of sexual mindfulness. A state in which women can give themselves permission to feel more worthy of love and great sex (and then have it!). Dr. Jenn will guide you through the process of assessing levels of "mis-education" in regard to relationships, communication, sex, passion, desire, and body image and integrating mindfulness practices to overcome your own personal "madness".

Our society is undergoing an evolution, and we should take this as a call to action to ensure that all people, regardless of gender identity, sexual orientation, ability, age, ethnicity, race, religion, or social class, are treated as humans worthy of respect.

Michael Nast, seit seinem Nr.-1-Bestseller das Sprachrohr für die Generation Beziehungsunfähig, hat neue Nachrichten für seine Leserschaft: Den Traumpartner unserer Vorstellungen, der unseren mannigfaltigen Anforderungen entspricht, gibt es nicht! Die Gründe für das ständige Scheitern unserer Dates und Beziehungen sind unsere falschen Idealvorstellungen, gepaart mit dem eigenen Selbstoptimierungswahn und unserer Darstellungswut in den sozialen Medien. Dem Ganzen setzt die Oberflächlichkeit und Unverbindlichkeit der heutigen Dating-Apps Tinder und Co. dann noch die Krone auf.

Verständnis. Vergebung. Neubeginn: der inspirierende Aufruf von Bestsellerautor Veit Lindau zur Versöhnung der Geschlechter. Die anstehenden Herausforderungen der Menschheit - individuell und kollektiv - sind nur durch eine neue, bewusstere Cokreation der Geschlechter zu lösen. Paare können an Krisen zerbrechen, Männer und Frauen sich ewig an alten Wunden zerreiben, oder aber in eine völlig neue Dimension an Ehrlichkeit, Intimität und WIR-Power hineinreifen.

Fins i tot enmig de la foscor, en un dels llocs més durs del planeta, s’hi poden obrir escletxes d’esperança que transformen vides per sempre. Al camp de refugiats de Xatila, al Líban, la llum va entrar amb en Majdi. Aquest pintor de façanes palestí va formar un equip de bàsquet femení per apartar les nenes d’un destí dramàtic que sovint comença amb un matrimoni infantil i acaba en una espiral de maltractaments, drogues i crims d’honor.

In This Is Why I Resist activist and political commentator, Dr Shola Mos-Shogbamimu digs down into the deep roots of racism and anti-blackness in the UK and the US. Using real life examples from the modern day, Dr Shola shows us the different forms racism takes in our day-to-day lives and asks us to raise our voice to end the oppression. She delves into subjects not often explored such as racial gatekeepers, white ingratitude, performative allyship (those black squares on Instagram), current identity politics and abuse of the Black trans community.

Today's young women are told we can be anything, so we search for a love to back us, not hold us back. We want the Prince Harry and Meghan Markle kind of love, not Prince William and Kate. Yet, while we unapologetically own our careers and lives and Bumble accounts, we're still unsure whether men truly accept - let alone desire - the women we have become. We are told to lean in at work but wait for him to call. To ask for the pay rise but not his number. We are ambitious at work but confused in love.

“I am married to an amazing woman, and we have great kids. I also carry a huge secret deep inside: I am gay.” Accepting truth about sexual identity after living outwardly as straight is terrifying and incredibly difficult to maneuver. Some fool themselves that this will be just fine, some have been caught exploring their sexuality, and some consider drastic steps to spare themselves and their loved ones from this truth.
