THE PATIENT WHO CURED HIS THERAPIST: And Other Stories of Unconventional Therapy Ref: RFD674

Stanley Siegel

Stanley Siegel challenges conventional therapeutic thinking with an unusual approach: instead of trying to "fix" clients, he encourages them to appreciate their own adaptive ingenuity. In the process, something remarkable almost always happens -- as in the case of the couple who solved their conflict only after literally building a wall within their home. These dozen stories demonstrate Siegel's convictions that the therapist has as much to learn as the patient, and that real healing is possible only when the healer truly respects his or her patients.

THE POWER OF LOSING CONTROL: Finding Strength, Meaning & Happiness in an Out-of-Control World Ref: REA274

Joe Caruso

It seems the more we try to control our lives, the more out of control life becomes. In The Power of Losing Control, Joe Caruso - a cancer survivor and internationally acclaimed speaker whose seminars and workshops have literally transformed people's lives - shows us that the true power in "losing control" lies in the wisdom of making distinctions between what you can control, what you can merely affect, and what you must accept.

Written in Joe's warm, personal style and filled with real-life stories that are sure to change the way you see things, The Power of Losing Control shows you why the best way to achieve happiness is to stop pursuing it.

PRIMER OF PSYCHOTHERAPY: A Developmental Perspective Ref: RWD448

Gertrude Blanck

Though primarily offering an introduction to psychoanalytic developmental psychology, Blanck, a therapist and lecturer since the 1950s, intersperses more sophisticate theoretical thinking only recently devised and often not yet published elsewhere, so experienced analysts and therapists might find some interesting tidbits as well. She takes a mainstream perspective to survey the major theoretical schools.

PSYCHE’S SEEDS: The 12 Sacred Principles of Soul-Based Psychology Ref: RWD330

Jacqueline Small

The author of Awakening in Time uses the archetypal myth of Psyche and Eros to show readers how to combine their psychological and spiritual searches. Just as the mythical Psyche had to learn a new set of life principles to free herself from the jealousies of Aphrodite and win the love of the goddess's son Eros, so do we need to use Psyche's lessons to combine the forces of our psyche and soul. The book's "Twelve Seed Thoughts for the Journey" and "Psyche's Four Tasks" give readers immensely practical personal exercises for creating a soul-based psychology. Jacquelyn Small shows how it is only when we learn to combine soul and psychology that we find the true path to a higher purpose and a better sense of self.

RECEIVING LOVE: Transform Your Relationship by Letting Yourself Be Loved Ref: REA154H

Harville Hendrix & Helen LaKelly Hunt

This is the first to address the biggest unexplored issue facing couples today. Most of us are better at giving love than accepting it. We don't realize all the ways that our resistance to appreciation, praise, compliments, and accepting help from others hurts us and cripples our relationships. Many partners learn how to give love, but many more undermine their relationships by forgetting something that is equally important - learning to receive it. According to the authors, the root of the problem is the self-rejection that began in childhood, when our parents and caretakers unintentionally failed to nurture us. We end up rejecting in ourselves whatever our caretakers ignored or rejected in the course of our childhoods. When we become adults, this makes it impossible to let in the love we want and need, even when our partners offer it. As a result, we dismiss compliments, minimise gestures of affection, and create obstacles to true intimacy. In this book, Harville Hendrix and Helen LaKelly Hunt, co-creators of Imago Relationship Therapy, offer a definitive guide to breaking the shackles of self-rejection and embracing the love our partners offer.

SEXUAL PEACE: Beyond the Dominator Virus Ref: RWD951

Michael Sky

Sky explores how to restore peace and partnership in the lives of men and women. He proposes that after 5,000 years of patriarchal domination, the abuse of the female has become so ingrained in our culture as to become viral in nature. By naming the problem, he helps us begin the process of dealing with it. The author stresses the importance of going beyond the violent nature inherent in a male-dominated society to understand and embrace true and lasting partnership so that we can enjoy a fuller, balanced sexuality. "Calls for the most profound, the most rooted transformation/revolution possible: that women and men live out their human relationships as true partners." - Matthew Fox.

SHADOW: Searching for the Hidden Self Ref: RWD843

Robert Bly

"Readers of Carl Jung and Joseph Campbell will be familiar with the concept of archetypes, symbolic figures that embody key aspects of our contradictory nature, from the hero to the fool... Every aspect of life has its shadow, but people are reluctant to talk about it, observes poet Robert Bly in his introduction to The Shadow. We must face our dark side, Bly declares, to understand our past, control our less than altruistic impulses, and realize our dream of a better world. The unexpected selections that follow bear this out. Courageous glimpses into the dark side by Frederick Douglass, Bernard Malamud, Shirley Jackson, Anne Sexton, Stephen King, and Adrienne Rich evince a strange, sorrowful, yet hopeful beauty as they intuitively channel an archetype's infinitely resonant power.
