Mental Philosophy

Teddybearness is a system of values, ideas, and actions, based on a gentle and benevolent attitude towards everything and everyone, the absence of all anger, hatred, envy, and hostility.

Lou Holtz once said, “It’s not the load that breaks you down, it’s the way you carry it.” Stress is a load of immense pressure and when we carry it wrong, we will be crushed under its weight. We all feel the crippling effect(s) of unrest when we’re faced with problems daily. These issues range from freaking out about an exam tomorrow to the moment our lives fall apart because finances worked against our favor.

The sublime evokes our awe, our terror, and our wonder. Applied first in ancient Greece to the heights of literary expression, in the 18th century the sublime was extended to nature and to the sciences, enterprises that viewed the natural world as a manifestation of God's goodness, power, and wisdom. In The Scientific Sublime, Alan Gross reveals the modern-day sublime in popular science. He tells how the great popular scientists of our time evoke the sublime in response to fundamental questions: How did the universe begin? How did life? How did language?

Johnston, an award-winning, practising clinical psychologist, this audiobook is a comprehensive look at psychology, but it pays extra attention to contemporary issues such as fear/anxiety, child psychology, health psychology, mood-altering drugs and forensics.

Il pensiero è l`attività della mente, un processo che si esplica nella formazione delle idee, dei concetti, della coscienza, dell`immaginazione, dei desideri, della critica, del giudizio, e di ogni raffigurazione del mondo; può essere sia conscio che inconscio. Parlando dei pensieri è impossibile non citare Cartesio e il suo “cogito ergo sum” (penso dunque sono). In breve significa che quello che pensiamo ci dà la sicurezza della nostra esistenza.

The future will be shaped not only by technology, but also by the liberation of human potential, much of it locked up in obsolete schooling. This book mines the rich cultural legacy of philosophy, folklore, and legend, especially Greek mythology, to understand their inner meaning and their relevance to the dilemmas of a troubled and confused world at the crossroads of evolution.

Human interest in the nature of consciousness dates far back to our ancestral past. However, it is only in the last century or so that researchers and philosophers have been able to tackle the problem in a more scientific way. This is primarily due to our increasing understanding of human physiology and how our brain functions. The following essays briefly explore the life and work of pioneers in the field of consciousness studies.

A deep-dive look at how new generations are not a continuance of previous generations but have sworn off the common bonds that held generations together. It is not about old people dying so much is it is about how the traditions, the mindset, even the shared generational values of previous generations no longer are part of new generations.

Pour retrouver l’équilibre, nous devons plus que jamais donner sa juste place à l’hémisphère droit du cerveau (imagination, intuition, rêve), autant qu’à l’hémisphère gauche (structure, analyse, jugement).

Tous les passionnants récits de ce livre sont vrais. Ils offrent autant d’éclairages sur l’éventail infini des histoires de vie.

Spätestens seit Lockdown und Schulausfall hinterfragen Eltern den Sinn vieler Maßnahmen rund um Schule und Kindeswohl. Zu Recht. Psychotherapeutin Gunda Frey warnt: "Wir erschaffen eine traumatisierte Generation!" Kinder werden heute von Geburt bis Schulabschluss den Zwängen eines auf "Funktionieren" optimierten Systems ausgesetzt - Rücksichtnahme auf ihre Bedürfnisse: meist Fehlanzeige! Das Ergebnis: Kinder, denen Eltern, Erzieher und Lehrer nicht das ermöglichen, was gut, gesund und nötig wäre. Die Resultate sind fatal.

To avoid the hurt from life's failures, we allow in more pain by downsizing our dreams. You know that you can reach that mountain top, yet deny it out of conditioned fear. The only way up is to remove every single layer of faulty programming.

Nell'indagare la verità e la sua storia, Galimberti risale anzitutto alla prima fonte della nostra cultura, ai greci, che ci hanno tramandato una verità legata alla visibilità, anche se non immediatamente sensibile, com'è indicato da Platone col termine 'idea'. Ma qui inizia anche la sciagura del corpo nel mondo occidentale e la scissione, sempre più pronunciata, tra ciò che è inteso come anima e il corpo.

Dell'anima è stato detto di tutto: che è mortale o immortale, che può salvarsi o dannarsi, conoscere la verità o cadere nell'errore, che eleva e nobilita tutto ciò che nell'uomo è poco nobile, cosicché anche il desiderio non è solo dei corpi. Due secoli fa si pensò che potesse ammalarsi, proprio come il corpo, e richiedere medici dell'anima: nacquero la psichiatria, la psicoanalisi, la psicologia, che tolsero all'anima la sua aureola e contribuirono a disperderne la verità nei vari saperi.

Wer bist du wirklich? Was ist deine Lebensaufgabe? Wie schaffst du es, Frieden, Erfüllung und innere Heilung zu finden? Geht es um die Harmonie mit sich selbst und dem ganzen Universum, stoßen sowohl zeitgenössische Selbstoptimierungsprogramme als auch therapeutische Verfahren an ihre Grenzen. Heilrituale, Trance und Seelenarbeit der Schamanen sind traditionelle Mittel, die es erlauben, in die Ganzheit zu kommen. Für die Weltgesundheitsorganisation (WHO) hat der Schamanismus bei psychischen und psychosomatischen Erkrankungen die gleiche Bedeutung wie die westliche Schulmedizin.
