Denial

Author: E.L. Edelstein
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461307376
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 326

Book Description
We do not think about everything at once all the time. Various mecha nisms allow us to choose from among the themes, issues, topics, feelings, ideas, and memories that might occupy consciousness. One can focus selectively on anything deemed important; yet the methods by which this is accomplished vary greatly. We clinicians assign to these various mech anisms names that fit whatever theoretical system is central to our work-the healthy suppression of "background noise" allows us to pay attention to certain matters; the repression of unconscious conflict may assist our functioning in one moment despite its later cost; whereas denial and disavowal are used as general and fairly nonspecific terms for matters that are left out of awareness in order to avoid the noxious emotions specific to the personal significance of such awareness. Despite the attitude of scientific objectivity characterizing Freud's introduction of psychoanalysis, an aura of morality clings to certain of these mecha nisms, for we tend to judge people by their use of them. We are a society of doers, people of action and accomplishment who look with disrespect at the avoidance of any responsibility or task. Thus denial has taken on a negative connotation, and those who use this avoidance system are seen as the lesser among us.

Evolution of Sleep

Author: Patrick McNamara
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1139483579
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 289

Book Description
Research during the past two decades has produced major advances in understanding sleep within particular species. Simultaneously, molecular advances have made it possible to generate phylogenetic trees, while new analytical methods provide the tools to examine macroevolutionary change on these trees. These methods have recently been applied to questions concerning the evolution of distinctive sleep state characteristics and functions. This book synthesizes recent advances in our understanding of the evolutionary origins of sleep and its adaptive function, and it lays the groundwork for future evolutionary research by assessing sleep patterns in the major animal lineages.

A Personal Journey to Positive Change

Author: W. T. Watts
Publisher: Trafford Publishing
ISBN: 142691122X
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 309

Book Description
My goal is to bring substance and understanding to the lives of my readers based on my thirty year career specializing in counseling and psychotherapy. Herein I decipher and define those qualities of mental health which empower an individual to escape the grips of spiritual and psychological distress. Each of the basic attributes necessary to achieve this goal (humility, gratitude, acceptance/forgiveness, patience/trust) is discussed in addition to obstacles and opportunities presented by life. Practicing the attributes while circumventing obstacles and maximizing opportunities for growth will result in a life perspective dominated by love, wisdom and courage. The reader's journey is not unlike that of Dorothy from Kansas who is unpredictably severed from the security of all that she has known to be confronted with the ultimate change (Friends, environment, culture, life goal etc...). The Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum is an allegory of self-discovery and empowerment. As she overcomes all obstacles Dorothy and her friends learn that genuine power lies within and all else is illusion. Both themes are combined to present a relevant and hopefully, engaging treatise on living "the good life." My hope is that all readers benefit and evolve for the good of all.
