The Mindful Therapist
Daniel Siegel
HC AUD37.95
|
|
Research suggests that
the presence of the therapist and how the therapist
truly forges a connection with the client in therapy
are the most crucial factors affecting the client's
healing process.
This book offers a
deep exploration of what it means to be mindful
and how to cultivate mindfulness in the therapeutic
environment.
Siegel writes as one
professional speaking to another in an in-depth
conceptual discussion about the mind, brain and
human relations.
Exercises offered through
the book promote the development of mindsight
- the ability to sense and shape the flow of energy
and information within and between each of us.
Mindsight promotes
integration, a mindful presence and the nurturing
of empathic relationships,all of which are key
to effective therapy.

Towards the True Kinship of
Faiths
H.H. the Dalai Lama
PB AUD35.00
|
|
H.H. the Dalai Lama states in the
preface "… this challenge of peaceful
coexistence, I believe, will define the task of
humanity in the twenty-first century."
With that start he goes on to describe
his personal understanding and experience with
all the great religions of the world.
Using compassion as the guiding
principle he shows how this principle is the base
for living a good life. He states in many ways
that it is the responsibility of all people to
help develop a deep recognition of the value of
other faiths and from that base we can cultivate
genuine respect and cooperation.
In the close of his preface he says
" I have boundless respect for my own Buddhist
faith, but to see it within the context of its
brother and sister religions has afforded me a
vision of the grandeur and extent of what I truly
believe to be the finest aspirations of the human
spirit."

In this book, The Barefoot Doctor
charts his 25 years of training with some of the
most inspiring and innovative teachers and gurus
of their generation.
You'll meet a man who could drive
with his eyes closed, the yogi who actually emitted
light when meditating, the Tai Chi teacher who
could throw people across the room with one finger,
and luminaries such as R. D. Laing and Ram Dass.
In addition, you'll encounter colourful
characters like Geronimo's grandson and Psycho
Dan, who's on the lam for tearing off a man's
ears with his bare hands!
Recounting a journey that takes
him from urban London to the back alleys of Hong
Kong, to the mystical mountains of New Mexico
and back again, The Barefoot Doctor achieves something
unique: he tells ripping yarns about real-life
spiritual leaders that also succeed in passing
on the essence of their teachings.
As well as being hugely entertained,
you'll come away inspired to start living by your
own intuition so you can create an incredible
life for yourself.
