A complex post-traumatic stress disorder (C-PTSD) is neither innate nor character-related. Based on this fundamental thesis, author and therapist Pete Walker has developed his unique multimodal approach to (self-)help, which has gained him international recognition. Written from the perspective of someone affected and a highly specialized therapist at the same time, Walker combines authenticity and professional expertise in this book into a distinct methodological concept that has already provided countless individuals with a new quality of life. The most common trauma-related disorders include emotional flashbacks, toxic shame, self-neglect, social anxieties, and other distressing symptoms. Walker identifies the key factors for overcoming these issues as strengthening personal resources for self-help and fostering successful relationships. These can be relationships with friends, partners, teachers, therapists, therapy groups, or any combination thereof. Walker refers to this as communal reparenting. With its solution- and practice-oriented structure, numerous case studies, and clear and precise language, Walker's workbook is an indispensable companion for both therapists and individuals on the path out of trauma. "Pete Walker's work on complex PTSD is one of those models that both clients and practitioners can easily understand. It is a truly collaborative approach. When I use this framework in workshops, participants always find it helpful. The concept is easy for both practitioners and clients to grasp. Users resonate with the practical guidance Walker offers for normalizing and coping with emotional flashbacks that impair quality of life." - Dr. Claudia J. Dewane, Associate Prof., Temple University.

Once ADHD, always ADHD? Healing paths beyond Ritalin. ADHD - the still misunderstood condition means a life of restlessness and inner turmoil for countless individuals. The fact that there is a neurophysiological impairment associated with attention deficit disorder is undisputed, even by physician Dr. Gabor Maté.
However, in his investigation of the causes, he breaks with the previously common thesis of genetic predisposition and instead explains how childhood experiences impact the human brain. His message to parents, therapists, teachers, and those affected: healing is possible! His prescription: more empathy and care.
Maté's unique therapeutic approach follows a process of wholeness. He helps parents understand how their ADHD children think and teaches adults emotional self-regulation so they are no longer at the mercy of distraction, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. The book is an enlightening mix of personal accounts, case studies, and the latest findings from neuroscience, family systems theory, and genetics - illuminating this significant impairment in connection with societal developments.

How to become more successful and productive with 7 building blocks of positive psychology. Shawn Achor is funny, self-deprecating, and turns established notions of happiness upside down. A common saying suggests that we will be happy once we achieve success – we just need to land that great job, secure that beautiful apartment, or lose a couple more kilos. The latest research in positive psychology shows that this principle is outdated, as happiness fosters success, not the other way around.

- The Pivot Point and the Lever: How a shift in mentality can enhance your performance.
- The Tetris Effect: How to maximize your opportunities by training your brain.
- The 20-Second Rule: How to turn bad habits into good ones by removing obstacles.
Shawn Achor demonstrates that happy people are better problem solvers, live significantly healthier lives, have deeper social connections, and are more resilient to stress. This book is intended for anyone who wants to unlock their full potential in all areas of life.

The importance of eyesight in daily life is only truly realized when it is no longer fully present. It is particularly disheartening when the eye doctor is at a loss for solutions. In such cases, natural healing methods—especially the new eye acupuncture—can offer a real opportunity. Many eye ailments arise from metabolic issues in the body. Many eye doctors specialize solely in the eye itself and limit their treatments to it. In contrast, natural medicine takes a holistic approach and can serve as a meaningful complement to conventional medicine. In principle, improvement can be achieved in nearly every eye condition, and in many cases, healing is even possible. This work provides a clear introduction to the diverse treatment options available and shows what individuals can do to improve their vision.

Step by step, the specifics of homeopathic therapy in palliative medicine are explained. Thus, the case taking often involves more observation than questioning. The therapist must be trained to recognize significant symptoms. The most common complaints observed in dying patients are clearly explained, and the key homeopathic remedies are briefly and clearly differentiated. This includes conditions such as cachexia, depression, and sleep disorders, as well as shortness of breath, constipation, and more.
