Download or read book The Worst Evil-Losing Yourself written by Arla Caraboolad, Mft and published by . This book was released on 2011-01 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arla's journey left her sure she had a self, but uncertain where to look for validation of it. Fortunately, her "self" lead her to question God. She began to discover that God "really does LOVE people," in fact He likes them, and anything that disconnects us from Him, or causes us to deny our potential, was not from God, but was a result, directly or indirectly, of evil. Drawing from her experience as a therapist, Arla shares how evil works through authority figures to make children (and adults) doubt their value and worth. She provides very detailed and practical advice about the struggle between good and evil that pervades our world; and how this battle manifests itself in our lives. She shows how false beliefs, even if you're unconscious of them, distort self-worth and lead us to make dangerous and discouraging choices; and how a correct understanding of God can heal you and lead to discovering your true "self." Why do we make the choices we do? What is it that compels us to drift in certain directions? Are there forces working behind the scenes to affect our daily life? Are there tools we can employ in our lives that will make a difference? Do we have a choice? Must we accept the lies placed on us? Is there research that supports the affect of our choices? If you have wondered why you make choices you wish you didn't make, and how to start making choices that fulfill you and bring you to experience real joy, this is the book for you. Do you feel empty, like you have no choice? Can life change? Is there hope? Are you stuck? Here is understanding. Read and find strength and hope. Awaken to the fact that you are desired "as you are."

Book Synopsis The Worst Evil is Losing Yourself by : Arla Caraboolad Lmft
Download or read book The Worst Evil is Losing Yourself written by Arla Caraboolad Lmft and published by . This book was released on 2021-03-10 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I grew up believing self-love was a bad thing. It was the belief of the Christian church I was raised in, I think. But whether that was so or not, my parents had been raised in dysfunctional families, and had no sense of self-worth anyway. A vague sense of uneasiness surrounded the second and third decades of my life. I married at 28, became a mother just before turning 30, was separated within the year, divorced and enrolled in grad school by 35. How much did my dis-ease contribute to my failed marriage? "Not much." I told myself. My heartbreak was for my daughter. I believed I was coping well. It wasn't until I started dating again that I had to acknowledge my own "issues." In my graduate studies of family therapy they were identified with labels and causes. And suddenly I realized that I had always felt like a child hiding-out iin an adult body. Feelings that came up, carrying words like, "If they really knew me..." begin to register. I was thawing. I started to feel again. I must have banished former feelings to cope. I begin to understand shame. So birthed the discovery of my lost self: the pieces I had disowned in order to be ok. Losing your "self," the one that can experience joy and beauty, peace and wholeness, the one you were designed to be, is the worst thing that can happen to a human being. To lose your true self is to lose everything. You are all you have. You can get by with a false self, but when your heart stops beating and your breathing stops, it's over for you. Your mask falls, irrelevant. Is there danger of that? Can you lose you? Far too easily... The true self acquired by risking for true love ends in finding yourself forever. The false self attained by pretending: playing it safe, covering up flaws, hiding from hurt and shame ends in total loss. This self is also called the persona or the mask. I wrote this book because I know there are a lot of people who don't understand this, just as I didn't. I want to introduce a few of the main ways evil tries to trip us up and keep us in the dark. All of it comes from my experiences or those of my clients of 30 years in doing family systems therapy. Some wanted their names changed, some didn't. A few stories are favorites from other authors. This is in no way exhaustive. It's only the tip of the iceberg. It's some main points you need to know: evil's wiles that confuse us, stealing our joy, our peace our very selves. Self is a life and death matter.

It’s hard for Adley to wake up after a night of fun at a sleepover and discover that her best friend was murdered – especially since she remembers fragments of committing the deed. Adley has no idea why she killed Annabeth Landers. All she knows is that the voice in the back of her head – the devil on her shoulder – is intensifying and connected to why she killed Anna. As days pass, Adley begins to discover a whole new side of herself – one that’s more dangerous than anyone could ever imagine. However, Jessi Alvarez, Anna’s other best friend, is dead-set on unraveling the truth about what happened that night. Adley tries to keep any evidence away from herself in hopes that she won’t be discovered. But when Jessi wants Adley to help her solve the mystery, Adley is thrown at a crossroads. Hiding the truth from everyone around her isn’t easy. And when people from Adley’s past come back to haunt her, it makes the lying game harder to play.

Book Synopsis The 48 Laws of Power by : Robert Greene
Download or read book The 48 Laws of Power written by Robert Greene and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2023-10-31 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Amoral, cunning, ruthless, and instructive, this multi-million-copy New York Times bestseller is the definitive manual for anyone interested in gaining, observing, or defending against ultimate control – from the author of The Laws of Human Nature. In the book that People magazine proclaimed “beguiling” and “fascinating,” Robert Greene and Joost Elffers have distilled three thousand years of the history of power into 48 essential laws by drawing from the philosophies of Machiavelli, Sun Tzu, and Carl Von Clausewitz and also from the lives of figures ranging from Henry Kissinger to P.T. Barnum. Some laws teach the need for prudence (“Law 1: Never Outshine the Master”), others teach the value of confidence (“Law 28: Enter Action with Boldness”), and many recommend absolute self-preservation (“Law 15: Crush Your Enemy Totally”). Every law, though, has one thing in common: an interest in total domination. In a bold and arresting two-color package, The 48 Laws of Power is ideal whether your aim is conquest, self-defense, or simply to understand the rules of the game.

Download or read book Eat No Evil written by Roy Masters and published by FHU Bookstore. This book was released on 1987 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roy Masters, in his delightfully shocking book "Eat No Evil," quickly dispels all of the myths surrounding our fascination with food. Rather than offer the public another health food diet, he bypasses the mumbo jumbo of the experts and strikes straight to the heart of the matter, unearthing for the first time the hidden cause of our cravings. If you had been born, say, two thousand years ago, you wouldn't need this book. You would be sustaining yourself naturally by eating all the right foods. But, alas, you were born in the twentieth century, as if in a cage, a bleak environment of steel and concrete and supermarket-processed food. Need I say more about the devitalized, bran-stripped junk you are eating? So now it behooves you to thread your way back through the maze of food traumas and conditioning to discover what God intended you to do with the natural bounty he provided. Food is to the intestines what truth is to the spirit. In both cases, we must keep a clean house. The problem is that a wrong person cannot possibly eat right food. You will see that the primary emphasis is on the spiritual weaknesses that led you into temptation in the first place. Bear in mind that you must get right to eat right.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From A Kid To A King: Learning How To Transition From Immaturity To Maturity By: Edward L. Butler About the Book There comes a time in a man's life where he has to grow up. Grow up? Yes, grow up! All because a man looks like one doesn't mean that he is. Most men believe that once they see certain attributes of manhood; they are the men they need to be. See, there is more to being a man than by appearance alone. Becoming a man has little to do with the outward appearance of age and looks, but has everything to do with maturing the inner man. As men, it is very vital to understand the mindset. It takes guts-a lot of guts to perform certain duties in becoming a man. In this book, you learn to unlearn immature habits, revamp your thinking, capture your identity, and get clarity on what a king's role is and how to act in it. It’s an evaluation, which means to rectify your flaws! Once a man understands his flaws, he is able to understand what is needed to discipline himself to be less flawed. The more a man works on himself, the more disciplined he becomes to be wise, and the less he will deal with fools who are unequally yoked with mature wisdom. A self-check of oneself is an up on many men who decline on a self-evaluation. You see things other men can't see, and you understand things that other men misunderstand. Keep this as a mindset... “Feelings aren’t serious friends! They lie, procrastinate and are very indecisive.” Lean not on your feelings when engaging this book. But put forth the actions needed to transition into a more mature man!

Book Synopsis What Evil Means to Us by : C. Fred Alford
Download or read book What Evil Means to Us written by C. Fred Alford and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-10-18 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: C. Fred Alford interviewed working people, prisoners, and college students in order to discover how people experience evil—in themselves, in others, and in the world. What people meant by evil, he found, was a profound, inchoate feeling of dread so overwhelming that they tried to inflict it on others to be rid of it themselves. A leather-jacketed emergency medical technician, for example, one of the many young people for whom vampires are oddly seductive icons of evil, said he would "give anything to be a vampire." Drawing on psychoanalytic theory, Alford argues that the primary experience of evil is not moral but existential. The problems of evil are complicated by the terror it evokes, a threat to the self so profound it tends to be isolated deep in the mind. Alford suggests an alternative to this bleak vision. The exercise of imagination—in particular, imagination that takes the form of a shared narrative—offers an active and practical alternative to the contemporary experience of evil. Our society suffers from a paucity of shared narratives and the creative imagination they inspire.
