Book Synopsis The Dance of Fear by : Harriet Lerner
Download or read book The Dance of Fear written by Harriet Lerner and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-10-06 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unhappiness, says bestselling author Harriet Lerner, is fueled by three key emotions: anxiety, fear, and shame. They are the uninvited guests in our lives. When tragedy or hardship hits, they may become our constant companions. Anxiety can wash over us like a tidal wave or operate as a silent thrum under the surface of our daily lives. With stories that are sometimes hilarious and sometimes heartbreaking, Lerner takes us from "fear lite" to the most difficult lessons the universe sends us. We learn: how a man was "cured in a day" of the fear of rejection -- and what we can learn from his story how the author overcame her dread of public speaking when her worst fears were realized how to deal with the fear of not being good enough, and with the shame of feeling essentially flawed and inadequate how to stay calm and clear in an anxious, crazy workplace how to manage fear and despair when life sends a crash course in illness, vulnerability, and loss how "positive thinking" helps -- and harms how to be our best and bravest selves, even when we are terrified and have internalized the shaming messages of others No one signs up for anxiety, fear, and shame, but we can’t avoid them either. As we learn to respond to these three key emotions in new ways, we can live more fully in the present and move into the future with courage, clarity, humor, and hope. Fear and Other Uninvited Guests shows us how.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn how to thrive in—or escape from—a toxic work environment. Toxic organizations are rife with conflict, fear, and anger. The environment causes people to have physiological responses as if they’re in a fight-or-flight situation. Healthy people become ill. Colds, flu and stress-related illnesses such as heart attacks are more common. By contrast, in resonant organizations, people take fewer sick days and turnover is low. People smile, make jokes, talk openly and help one another." - Annie McKee (author, consultant) Many employees experience the reality of bullying bosses, poisonous people, and soul-crushing cultures on a daily basis. Rising Above a Toxic Workplace tells authentic stories from today's workers who share how they cope, change, or quit. Candidly they open up about what they learned, what they wish they had done, and how to gain resilience. Insightfully illustrating from these accounts, authors Gary Chapman, Paul White, and Harold Myra blend their combined experiences in ministry and business to deliver hope and practical guidance to those who find themselves in an unhealthy work environment. Includes a Survival Guide and Toolkit full of strategies and realistic insights

Book excerpt: Picking up where Quiet ended, How to Be Yourself is the best book you’ll ever read about how to conquer social anxiety. “This book is also a groundbreaking road map to finally being your true, authentic self.” —Susan Cain, New York Times, USA Today and nationally bestselling author of Quiet Up to 40% of people consider themselves shy. You might say you’re introverted or awkward, or that you're fine around friends but just can't speak up in a meeting or at a party. Maybe you're usually confident but have recently moved or started a new job, only to feel isolated and unsure. If you get nervous in social situations—meeting your partner's friends, public speaking, standing awkwardly in the elevator with your boss—you've probably been told, “Just be yourself!” But that's easier said than done—especially if you're prone to social anxiety. Weaving together cutting-edge science, concrete tips, and the compelling stories of real people who have risen above their social anxiety, Dr. Ellen Hendriksen proposes a groundbreaking idea: you already have everything you need to succeed in any unfamiliar social situation. As someone who lives with social anxiety, Dr. Hendriksen has devoted her career to helping her clients overcome the same obstacles she has. With familiarity, humor, and authority, Dr. Hendriksen takes the reader through the roots of social anxiety and why it endures, how we can rewire our brains through our behavior, and—at long last—exactly how to quiet your Inner Critic, the pesky voice that whispers, "Everyone will judge you." Using her techniques to develop confidence, think through the buzz of anxiety, and feel comfortable in any situation, you can finally be your true, authentic self.
Book Synopsis The Rise of Nuclear Fear by : Spencer R. Weart
Download or read book The Rise of Nuclear Fear written by Spencer R. Weart and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2012-04-02 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After a tsunami destroyed the cooling system at Japan's Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant, triggering a meltdown, protesters around the world challenged the use of nuclear power. Germany announced it would close its plants by 2022. Although the ills of fossil fuels are better understood than ever, the threat of climate change has never aroused the same visceral dread or swift action. Spencer Weart dissects this paradox, demonstrating that a powerful web of images surrounding nuclear energy holds us captive, allowing fear, rather than facts, to drive our thinking and public policy.Building on his classic, Nuclear Fear, Weart follows nuclear imagery from its origins in the symbolism of medieval alchemy to its appearance in film and fiction. Long before nuclear fission was discovered, fantasies of the destroyed planet, the transforming ray, and the white city of the future took root in the popular imagination. At the turn of the twentieth century when limited facts about radioactivity became known, they produced a blurred picture upon which scientists and the public projected their hopes and fears. These fears were magnified during the Cold War, when mushroom clouds no longer needed to be imagined; they appeared on the evening news. Weart examines nuclear anxiety in sources as diverse as Alain Resnais's film Hiroshima Mon Amour, Cormac McCarthy's novel The Road, and the television show The Simpsons.Recognizing how much we remain in thrall to these setpieces of the imagination, Weart hopes, will help us resist manipulation from both sides of the nuclear debate.
Book Synopsis Building Faith over Fear! Face Everything And Rise with JESUS! by : Gerard Assey
Download or read book Building Faith over Fear! Face Everything And Rise with JESUS! written by Gerard Assey and published by Gerard Assey. This book was released on 2020-09-12 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone has some kind of fear. “Fear not, Do not be afraid” is probably the single most difficult command in the bible. We may not have killed, robbed or committed adultery, but we all are certainly guilty of this one command. No wonder then, there is so much on the internet that says that the phrase ‘FEAR NOT’ or ‘DO NOT BE AFRAID’ appears 366 times in the Bible, because it is believed that God knew that this was our weakest area that the devil would attack. So these 366 times is like giving us a reminder every day, including one for a leap year too. But if you really take count, there are actually more than 366 “Fear not’s” or related terms in the Bible! Thank God for this, because we need to be reminded to trust God not just every day, but every moment of the day- as it is Him that runs the universe and our lives- not us! Worry is the result of fear ... lots of fear! Fear about loss, fear about security, fear about safety, fear about tomorrow- People are worried about losing a loved one, losing a job, sicknesses, diseases or viruses, neighbours, insects, fear of making a presentation in public…Well the list could go on! Fear is one of Satan’s most popular weapons that he uses against us, filling us with worry, anxiety, fear, torment and so forth. However, the Word of God in 2 Timothy 1.7 tells us very clearly “For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind”. John 10.10 further tells us that the enemy, the devil is that thief who only comes to steal, kill and destroy…and he does it in that order, first starting with your peace and ultimately ending to destroy you! That is what he is doing right now to the entire world. Worry has never changed anything. It is worthless. If you think worrying about the viruses in the air, will save you from it or worrying about your kids will make them safer- it is only a false form of control. It has no effect. Worriers are always going back and forth over an issue they are worried about- one minute they decide one thing and something else the next! Worry is like a rocking chair-it only tosses you back and forth. You can’t change the past, you can’t control the future, and in the process you will only mess up today. In James 1:8 we read that “A double minded man is unstable in all his ways...” Worry is focusing on me and my fears – and not God. It’s like telling God, let me do your work of being in control! Over 2000 years ago, on a Resurrection Sunday Morning, these same words ‘Do not be afraid’ were uttered to the 3 women who came to the tomb of Jesus (Matthew 28:10) God knew that the death of Jesus and their future could evoke fear of what is to come. The angel sent by God invites them to COME and SEE the place where He had been laid. To come and see for themselves that He was there, but is NOW no longer there. They are then instructed to GO and TELL the disciples. They can’t linger long there or keep this incredible news to themselves: ‘Jesus WAS crucified, but He IS Risen!’ They must go and tell others. And in the going, they are told they will SEE HIM, just as He promised. The tomb may have looked empty…but it was full of hope, potential, possibility and new beginnings. The empty tomb wasn’t the end of a story, but a new beginning. It was a new beginning for the 3 women. It was a new beginning for the disciples. It was a new beginning for the kingdom of God. And it IS a new beginning for you and me- for all of us! As the song so beautifully says: Because He lives, I can face tomorrow, Because He lives, all fear is gone, Because I know He holds the future, And life is worth the living, just because He lives! This little Book: ‘Building Faith over Fear! Face Everything And Rise with JESUS!’ is to help you do just that by providing you the right biblical ways of handling fear and enabling you Rise with Jesus!

Book Synopsis Hope in Times of Fear by : Timothy Keller
Download or read book Hope in Times of Fear written by Timothy Keller and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2021-03-09 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Resurrection accounts of Jesus in the Gospels are the most dramatic and impactful stories ever told. One similarity unites each testimony--that none of his most loyal and steadfast followers could "see" it was him, back from the dead. The reason for this is at the very foundation of the Christian faith. She turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she did not realize that it was Jesus. (John 20:14) Hope in the Time of Fear is a book that unlocks the meaning of Jesus's resurrection for readers. Easter is considered the most solemn and important holiday for Christians. It is a time of spiritual rebirth and a time of celebrating the physical rebirth of Jesus after three days in the tomb. For his devoted followers, nothing could prepare them for the moment they met the resurrected Jesus. Each failed to recognize him. All of them physically saw him and yet did not spiritually truly see him. It was only when Jesus reached out and invited them to see who he truly was that their eyes were open. Here the central message of the Christian faith is revealed in a way only Timothy Keller could do it--filled with unshakable belief, piercing insight, and a profound new way to look at a story you think you know. After reading this book, the true meaning of Easter will no longer be unseen.
Book Synopsis The New Religious Intolerance by : Martha C. Nussbaum
Download or read book The New Religious Intolerance written by Martha C. Nussbaum and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2012-04-24 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What impulse prompted some newspapers to attribute the murder of 77 Norwegians to Islamic extremists, until it became evident that a right-wing Norwegian terrorist was the perpetrator? Why did Switzerland, a country of four minarets, vote to ban those structures? How did a proposed Muslim cultural center in lower Manhattan ignite a fevered political debate across the United States? In The New Religious Intolerance, Martha C. Nussbaum surveys such developments and identifies the fear behind these reactions. Drawing inspiration from philosophy, history, and literature, she suggests a route past this limiting response and toward a more equitable, imaginative, and free society. Fear, Nussbaum writes, is "more narcissistic than other emotions." Legitimate anxieties become distorted and displaced, driving laws and policies biased against those different from us. Overcoming intolerance requires consistent application of universal principles of respect for conscience. Just as important, it requires greater understanding. Nussbaum challenges us to embrace freedom of religious observance for all, extending to others what we demand for ourselves. She encourages us to expand our capacity for empathetic imagination by cultivating our curiosity, seeking friendship across religious lines, and establishing a consistent ethic of decency and civility. With this greater understanding and respect, Nussbaum argues, we can rise above the politics of fear and toward a more open and inclusive future.
