Showing results for "Limit" in Psychology & Mental Health

Most of us still live by the motto, “No pain, no gain.” But this approach to life is actually a prescription for fear, frustration, and self-doubt. Much of what we learn about success is based on the pain/gain idea: in essence, work harder, be more persistent, and develop greater willpower. The New Psycho-Cybernetics formula is anything but painful. It will allow you to achieve all your goals, faster, easier, and with less strain than you ever thought possible.

Quins són els límits que cal posar als fills i filles i, sobretot, com s'han de posar és una de les preocupacions de moltes famílies. El paradigma de criança tradicional, que tirava d'autoritarisme, d'arbitrarietat i del «perquè ho dic jo» no serveix quan les mares i pares volem establir una relació amb els fills i filles basada en el respecte mutu i la connexió. Tanmateix, ens falten referents i, a més, ens trobem amb una altra dificultat: sovint no tenim clars els nostres propis límits i, sense base pròpia, fem aigües.

Every time we think ahead, we are crafting a story. Every daily plan and every political vision, social movement, scientific hypothesis, business proposal, and technological breakthrough starts with “what if?” Linking causes to effects, considering hypotheticals and counterfactuals, asking how other people will react: these are the essence of narrative. So why do we keep overlooking story’s importance to intelligence in favor of logic?

Joseph Selbie explores the current understanding of the brain's dismaying life-controlling influence on our thoughts, emotions, and behavior, and balances that understanding with neuroscience's discoveries of neuroplasticity and our innate ability to rewire the brain for any new purpose. Break Through the Limits of the Brain delves into the scientific support for the existence of a subtle, nonlocal reality that strongly suggests that we exist simultaneously in both a subtle and a physical reality—and that our thoughts, life force, emotions, and memories originate nonlocally.

What if embracing your differences could unlock your true potential? For years, I believed I was "too much," too intense, too different, too unpredictable. Diagnosed with autism and ADHD when I turned forty, I spent decades masking who I truly was, trying to fit into a world not designed for minds like mine. When I finally embraced my neurodivergence, everything changed. I didn’t just survive, I thrived. Turning my perceived limitations into my greatest strengths. NeuroEdge exists to help you do the same.

No Such Thing as Normal is a deeply researched, timely, essential book that will shine a light on the psychiatric industry: its genesis, its obsession with often ineffective, over-medicalised treatments, and its relationship with a pharmaceutical industry driven by profitability rather than meaningful social welfare and change.

This book explores the science, psychology, and controversy behind polygraph testing. Far from being a flawless instrument of justice, the polygraph is better understood as a “stress detector” than a “lie detector.” It measures physiological changes—heart rate, breathing patterns, and skin conductance—that may be linked to deception but are not exclusive to it. Nervousness, fear, anger, or even the pressure of being under suspicion can all produce the same readings as a lie. This ambiguity is at the core of the ongoing debate about whether polygraphs are reliable science or clever theater.

Dies ist kein Ort für Fassade. Dies ist ein Raum für das, was wir ein Leben lang verschluckt haben. Für das Unausgesprochene. Für das, was unter der Haut brennt. Hier geht es nicht um Perfektion. Hier geht es um das, was echt ist. Um Brüche, Narben, Fragen ohne Antwort und um die stille Kraft, die entsteht, wenn wir aufhören zu schweigen. Ich erzähle nicht, um zu gefallen. Ich erzähle, um sichtbar zu machen, was im Dunkeln lebt. Weil Heilung nur dort beginnt, wo die Wahrheit endlich atmen darf. Wer hier zuhört, bekommt keine einfachen Lösungen. Nur Türen. Und die Wahl, ...
