Title: Boundaries and Relationships

Subtitle: Knowing, Protecting and Enjoying the Self

Author: Charles L. Whitfield

Narrator: Jonathan Yen

Format: Unabridged

Length: 7 hrs and 9 mins

Language: English

Release date: 01-30-18

Publisher: Tantor Audio

Genres: Science & Technology, Psychology & The Mind

Publisher's Summary:

More than personal boundaries, this book is really about relationships - healthy and unhealthy ones. Here best-selling author and psychotherapist Charles Whitfield blends theories and dynamics from several disciplines into practical knowledge and actions that your can use in your relationships right now.

This comprehensive book opens with clear definitions and descriptions of boundaries, a self-assessment survey, and a history of our accumulated knowledge. Going deeper, it describes the 10 essential areas of human interaction wherein you can improve your relationships. These include age regression, giving and receiving (projection and projective identification), triangles, core recovery issues, basic dynamics, unfinished business, and spirituality. It shows in countless practical ways how knowledge of each of these is most useful in your recovery and everyday life.

Members Reviews:

Not worth it.

Reads like a bad text book, or book report. Many, many, many better books on boundaries out there for consumers. Found the terminology, structure, and layout confusing at best. The author's repeated references to their other books was annoying, and frequent citations of others' works distracting and unnecessary. Nothing presented in the first third of the book (as far as I could get before I started looking into whether I even COULD return an ebook) was novel or even interesting. I have very, very rarely not read a book to the end and this one is on that list. Better spend your $9.10 elsewhere.

A must read for anyone in a relationship of any kind - so yea, pretty much everybody ;o)

Very, Very, Very Helpful book. Reads like a textbook so you need time to concentrate, but this book really offered life changing advice (which I don't say lightly). This is one of those books that you read and realize that you are not alone. You realize that someone else has figured their way out of the tangle of confusion that you have found yourself in, and they know the way out! Very comforting and encouraging! I am very grateful that this book crossed my path. Very insightful!

Compassionate, Insightful and Instructive

Dr. Whitfield has written a comprehensive book on recognizing, setting and maintaining boundaries. There is information about how boundaries are violated, what it might feel like to the individual and how to get your boundaries back and keep them. "Boundaries" is filled with compassionate insights for those who have experienced childhood trauma, become codependent and want to break free and reclaim their soul, body, and spirit. Enlightening and informative. I learned a lot and much of the content hit home.

Are you constantly getting run over?

This book is for the person whose mom and dad only told them about the birds and bees.... and nothing about how to be social without getting the crap beat out of you emotionally. If you cant explain boundaries, when to use them, what types there are, and how to have good relationships, then you may want to read this. I thought it was great.

Highly Recommend This Book

Excellent book explaining boundaries. It helped clear up a lot of misunderstandings that I had on the topic.

Title: Lost Connections

Subtitle: Uncovering the Real Causes of Depression - and the Unexpected Solutions

Author: Johann Hari

Narrator: Johann Hari

Format: Unabridged

Length: 9 hrs and 20 mins

Language: English

Release date: 01-23-18

Publisher: Audible Studios

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 19 votes

Genres: Science & Technology, Psychology & The Mind

Publisher's Summary:

From the New York Times best-selling author of Chasing the Scream, a radically new way of thinking about depression and anxiety.

What really causes depression and anxiety - and how can we really solve them? Award-winning journalist Johann Hari suffered from depression since he was a child and started taking antidepressants when he was a teenager. He was told that his problems were caused by a chemical imbalance in his brain. As an adult, trained in the social sciences, he began to investigate whether this was true - and he learned that almost everything we have been told about depression and anxiety is wrong.

Across the world, Hari found social scientists who were uncovering evidence that depression and anxiety are not caused by a chemical imbalance in our brains. In fact, they are largely caused by key problems with the way we live today. Hari's journey took him from a mind-blowing series of experiments in Baltimore, to an Amish community in Indiana, to an uprising in Berlin.

Once he had uncovered nine real causes of depression and anxiety, they led him to scientists who are discovering seven very different solutions - ones that work. It is an epic journey that will change how we think about one of the biggest crises in our culture today.

Members Reviews:

Must read

For those of us who have experienced depression as a personal crisis, and for all of us who need to recognize it as a public health crisis. Hari is a brilliant investigative journalist (see Chasing the Scream, about addiction) who brings his personal experience, taut and engaging research style, and profound empathy to this widespread but yet hidden malady. The medical and pharmaceutical model of depression is just not supported by the research, and Hari discusses 9 other causes/contexts for understanding depression that are backed by scientific evidence. From the treatment perspective, not much mention of CBT, DBT or mindfulness practice might be a flaw in the book to some. Current practices in psychiatry and psychology are not quite as drug reliant as Hari suggests. But almost. For a book about such a weighty and, yes, depressing topic, it trips along like an adventure story as research findings are tracked down and humane and personable scientists are interviewed. The narration is pleasant, earnest but never harping. Well worth the credit on all counts.

Lost Connections

This was, hands down, the best, most enlightening book I have read in a very long time. I recommend it to everyone!

Most important book I've ever read/listened to

If you deal with or have dealt with depression I can't recommend this book enough!

Best book on anxiety and depression

Why is everyone I know depressed and anxious?! This book spells it out, and makes sense!!!!!!

Tell the world!

fantastic book.

superb again from Johan Hari. well researched, absorbing and eye opening. would recommend to all people, even those who do not suffer with mental illness.

Title: The Deepest Well

Subtitle: Healing the Long-Term Effects of Childhood Adversity

Author: Dr. Nadine Burke Harris

Narrator: Dr. Nadine Burke Harris

Format: Unabridged

Length: 10 hrs and 20 mins

Language: English

Release date: 01-23-18

Publisher: Simon & Schuster Audio

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 4 votes

Genres: Science & Technology, Psychology & The Mind

Publisher's Summary:

A pioneering physician reveals how childhood stress can lead to lifelong health problems and shows us what we can do to break the cycle.

Two-thirds of us have experienced at least one adverse childhood experience, or ACE, such as abuse, neglect, parental substance dependence, or mental illness. Even though these events may have occurred long ago, they have the power to haunt us long into adulthood, and now we have found that they may even contribute to lifelong illness.

Dr. Nadine Burke Harris, the founder/CEO of the Center for Youth Wellness and recipient of the Arnold P. Gold Foundation Humanism in Medicine Award, expands on similar topics as in her popular TED talk as she demystifies the connection between adversity and ill health. After surveying more than 17,000 adult patients, she found that the higher a person's ACE score, the worse their health. This led Burke Harris to an astonishing breakthrough - childhood stress changes our neural systems, and its impact lasts a lifetime.

Through vivid storytelling that combines both scientific insight with deeply moving stories about her patients and their families, Burke Harris illuminates her journey of discovery from the academy to her own pediatric practice in San Francisco's poverty-ridden Bayview Hunters Point. She reroots the story of childhood trauma and its aftermath in science to help listeners see themselves and others more clearly.

For anyone who has faced a difficult childhood or who cares about the millions of children who do, the innovative and acclaimed health interventions outlined in the The Deepest Well represents vitally important hope for change.

Great book to train ourselves especially to discipline our mental and develop it in right way!

This was an awesome book to read as it shows you perfectly how to get better in terms of your mindset and your mental discipline which I enjoyed a lot and this book is easy to read and understand and it is a fast read and has good info I will put to use and it is written in a very mental discipline style which fits exactly to this book and I was interested to read this book and learn a lot of interesting things. For example, I read about a warrior spirit so that you can deepen the connection you have with your spiritual self, leadership authenticity which will make you a service oriented teammate as well as a heart centered leader and so on and This was a really good book and it has helped me improve multiple areas in my life such as my focus and my ability to stick to certain task and i recommend this book to anyone who is interested in improving themselves and certainly do not plan to start a business but I could use some self-discipline with getting things done around the house and sometimes I feel overwhelmed with what I should be doing and this book was exactly what I needed to inspire me to work on my self-discipline.

This book is wonderful. Developing and maintaining mental toughness often results to being more emotionally resilient and motivated to keep moving forward even under stress and pressure, how to be more productive and build good habits, even how to implement them with my daily life style. Indeed, this is an informative and helpful book! It helps us to develop our mind.

Title: 12 Rules for Life

Subtitle: An Antidote to Chaos

Author: Jordan B. Peterson

Narrator: Jordan B. Peterson

Format: Unabridged

Length: 15 hrs and 38 mins

Language: English

Release date: 01-16-18

Publisher: Penguin Books Ltd

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 62 votes

Genres: Science & Technology, Psychology & The Mind

Publisher's Summary:

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of 12 Rules for Life, written and read by Jordan B. Peterson.

What are the most valuable things that everyone should know? Acclaimed clinical psychologist Jordan Peterson has influenced the modern understanding of personality, and now he has become one of the world's most popular public thinkers, with his lectures on topics from the Bible to romantic relationships to mythology drawing tens of millions of viewers.

In an era of unprecedented change and polarising politics, his frank and refreshing message about the value of individual responsibility and ancient wisdom has resonated around the world.

In this book, he provides 12 profound and practical principles for how to live a meaningful life, from setting your house in order before criticising others to comparing yourself to who you were yesterday, not someone else today. Happiness is a pointless goal, he shows us. Instead we must search for meaning, not for its own sake but as a defence against the suffering that is intrinsic to our existence.

Drawing on vivid examples from his clinical practice and personal life, cutting-edge psychology and philosophy, and lessons from humanity's oldest myths and stories, Peterson takes the listener on an intellectual journey like no other. Gripping, thought-provoking and deeply rewarding, 12 Rules for Life offers an antidote to the chaos in our lives: eternal truths applied to our modern problems.

Members Reviews:

Easily accessible wisdom

Jordan Peterson presents a refreshing voice of wisdom in a crowd of shrill hysteria and politically correct drivel. I was impressed with the combination of common sense advice and surprising insights. There is lots to learn here. If youre looking for a blueprint for a life well lived, youve come to the right place.

Deep and enjoyable experience

Peterson goes all in in his effort to lay out his philosophy in a form that resonates on many levels of analysis. The book is simultaneously a compelling map of reality, guide to a balanced and meaningful life, and a deep defence of Western culture, Christian values and healthy masculinity, which are all currently under attack. I think this book is not just an insightful thought provoker, but also a healthy vaccination against dangerous ideological viruses which are unleashed in the modern world.

long winded

As a fan of the author I feel disappointed. I was expecting better. There are some gems of wisdom, nothing new but differently stated. just too rambling for me I'm afraid. Patience is definitely a virtue when reading this book which is no easy read.

Went off on a tangent

Found myself rewinding every now and then because I seem to miss the point. Then realised he was on a rant that just didn't make sense. Amazon's return program for Audiobooks saves the day.

Eventually; Reason, Enlightenment Returned.

a good dollop of ethical understanding shared in a real and down to earth way. Jordan who is a clinical psychologist brings and humanely articulates an important message as western society struggles with its many psycho-social problems and virus-like shallow group identity politics and conveniently manipulative political correctness. He is well versed in English and Russian literature and explains the archtypical aspects contained therein and in Western culture.

Title: Emotional Success

Subtitle: The Power of Gratitude, Compassion, and Pride

Author: David DeSteno

Narrator: Dan Woren

Format: Unabridged

Length: 7 hrs and 22 mins

Language: English

Release date: 01-09-18

Publisher: Blackstone Audio, Inc.

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 7 votes

Genres: Science & Technology, Psychology & The Mind

Publisher's Summary:

A string of best sellers have alerted us to the importance of grit - an ability to persevere and control one's impulses that is closely associated with greatness. But no book yet has charted the most accessible and powerful path to grit: our prosocial emotions. These feelings - gratitude, compassion, and pride - are easier to generate than the willpower and self-denial that underpin traditional approaches to grit. And, while willpower is quickly depleted, prosocial emotions actually become stronger the more we use them. These emotions have another crucial advantage: they're contagious. Those around us become more likely to apply them when we do.

As this myth-shattering book explains, prosocial emotions evolved specifically to help us resist immediate temptations in favor of long-term gains. Originally, they enabled us to build lasting relationships with other people, and they still do that brilliantly. But they can also be adapted to strengthen our bonds with our own future selves - who will benefit most from the grit we need to succeed in life. No matter what our goals are, Emotional Success can help us achieve them with greater ease and deeper satisfaction than we would have thought possible.

Behavior Change that Works

For centuries, we have known about the tug of war between emotions and reason. In the ancient play Medea by Euripides, Medea says, âI am dragged along by a strange new force. Desire and reason are pulling in different directions. I see the right way and approve it, but follow the wrong.â

We still engage in this conflict. We make New Years resolutions, we commit to lose weight, to exercise more, to learn new skills, to be a better person. And yet we continue to rely on and believe that reason, our rational, logical brain can decide on and control our behavior.

In his book, Emotional Success, author David DeSteno, a professor of psychology at Northeastern University delves deep into the science around this natural conflict.

In the book, Dr. DeSteno shows the two different approaches to self-control. The one most often used is what he calls top down â where we try to rely on logic and reasoning, ârequiring constant cognitive vigilance to overcome temptations and correct behavior.â Just like Medea, this rarely works. It requires too much effort and ignores our emotional drives.

The second approach is what he terms bottom up, ârequiring the simple feeling of specific emotions. When we evoke these most basic building blocks of virtue â compassion, gratitude and pride â self-control along with other social virtues, automatically blossoms. This offers key insights into how we grow psychology grow.â

Dr. DeSteno builds a strong case for using the three emotions â gratitude, compassion and pride â to help us achieve our goals. He cites dozens of psychological studies â some his own, most from other researchers. The case studies are interesting â some fascinating â and informative.

The book is a quick, easy read. If the book only provided the theory, it would be interesting but not particularly helpful. Thankfully, there are specific steps the reader can take to incorporate these lessons into their life.

Experience has shown that knowledge or rational thinking does not lead to behavior change. We need to engage the emotions.

Length: 1 hr and 56 mins

Language: English

Release date: 12-20-17

Publisher: RJ Parker Publishing Inc.

Genres: Science & Technology, Psychology & The Mind

Publisher's Summary:

Are you the type of person who likes everything to be clean to a fault and arranged in a specific order? Do you find yourself fretting about those things or not being able to sleep if items are out of place? While with some individuals this is simply normal behavior, in others, it could be a symptom of obsessive compulsive disorder, or OCD for short.

Today, OCD affects one in 50 Americans. The obsessive thoughts and compulsions relating to this disorder impact approximately four million people in the USA alone. It can afflict anyone regardless of age, gender, or socioeconomic status. Even Hollywood stars have admitted to suffering from this disorder. While serious, and even grave if ignored, it is treatable.

Written with first hand knowledge, Learning to Live with OCD and Anxiety explains what OCD is, the symptoms that manifest within each of the different types, and the various treatments available. All while debunking the various myths surrounding the disorder.

Members Reviews:

Many facts about OCD and Anxiety I did not know. Very good information.

This is an excellent source of information about OCD and Anxiety to people who suffer with OCD as well as loved ones who live with someone who is suffering from OCD. There are many facts in this book I had not known about this disease. I encourage anyone who wants to learn about OCD and Anxiety to take a look at this very educational book.

Highly recommended book that helps to understand OCD

I'm so glad I found this book. It's excellent for people with OCD and for people who have loved ones with the disorder. It really helps with understanding the different types of OCD, how prevalent it is today and even some tips and treatments for self care. Highly recommend it!

Are you or a friend living with OCD and anxiety?

Chances are that you know someone who suffers from OCD. The signs and symptoms may be so subtle that you aren't aware of them. However, the person who lives with OCD is constantly struggling to appear normal. This in turn causes them anxiety.

OCD is a mental disease which cannot be detected by the usual tests or scans. It requires specialized treatment by a qualified professional. Those persons with OCD and anxiety need your support and understanding.

This book explains the elements of OCD and offers insightful suggestions for dealing with it or helping someone else who is suffering.

Very informative

This is an excellent, very well written, book about struggling with OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder) and anxiety. The book does a great job explaining the various types of obsessions and compulsions, including the signs and symptoms. Causes and anxiety are also explained as well as related disorders, myths, facts and risk factors. Living with OCD including medical treatment and self-treatment and care are also included.

A must read - excellent facts!!!!

Excellent book about OCD and Anxiety, of which I myself suffer from both. This very informative book has lots of facts for those living with these conditions as well as possible loved ones battling these conditions. It is a very hard disease to fight and although many Doctors visits help it still does not cure a person there is always that need to repeat and repeat.

Members Reviews:

Practical approach to ending binge eating but not enough to change my life

I loved this book until I realized that binge eating cannot be solved with a code. Everything in this book sparked hope within me, but as wonderful as the suggestions are, I needed something more. This book has some good practical ideas and tools, but much like the other books Iâve read on this topic in an attempt to change my behavior, it wasnât enough.

Turns out I needed to address the underlying issues, face my fears, feel my pain. I recommend Hungry for Happiness by Samantha Skelly as an alternative and if you are serious about ending binge eating, look into her 6 month program. Iâm halfway through and my binge eating has gone down about 90%, anxiety and depression have gone from a 10/10 to a 2/10.

Multiple uses

Thank you. I did not expect a book on binge eating would also help me with my PTSD symptoms but what do you know a technique to stop the purge can definitely be used in many other situations.

Great Book with practical advice

Lovely kind book with some great practical advice that I have been using and feeling stronger with. The ideas explored of changing your thinking and ending strict food rules makes sense to me.

Five Stars

This was really insightful & helped a lot!

Thanks Ali

Publisher's Summary:

CrossFit trainer Ben Bergeron has helped build the world's fittest athletes, but he's not like other coaches. He believes that greatness is not for the elite few; that winning is a result, not a goal; and that character, not talent, is what makes a true champion. His powerful philosophy can help anyone excel at all aspects of life.

Using the dramatic competition between the top contenders at the 2016 Reebok CrossFit Games as a background, Ben explores the step-by-step process of achieving excellence and the unique set of positive character traits necessary for leveling up to world-class. The mindset and methodology that have produced some of the greatest athletes in the world's most grueling sport can work equally well for golfers, lawyers, artists, entrepreneurs - anyone who's willing to commit totally to becoming better than the best.

By Chasing Excellence, you'll discover how extraordinary it's possible for you to be.

Members Reviews:

Great content and very motivating

If you could sum up Chasing Excellence: A Story About Building the World's Fittest Athletes in three words, what would they be?

Chasing Excellence is all about the journey that Ben Bergeron went on to take on three of the most elite athletes in all of CrossFit. Ben coached them up to be the best and reminded them, constantly, that they had it within them all along, but it required discipline.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Character? I suppose hearing about Katrin's obstacles that she had to overcome gave real personality to her "character".

What about Ben Bergerons performance did you like?

I loved that he read the book himself, since he wrote it himself.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Control the controllable and let the uncontrollable go

Any additional comments?

Ben reads it like he writes it, so he's not quite Shakespeare. However, even though simply written and read as a run-on sentence at times, Ben lived this and by sharing his story, he'll motivate millions.

RAISE THE BAR IN EVERYTHING YOY DO

Everything about this book is calling out the weakest pathways in our minds to be open no matter the profession you may attain greatness is in all of us Ex: Coach , CEO, Exotic Dancer , Network Marketer ,Direct Sales Rep , Mechanic, Mother ,Father ,Dishwasher , Artichect and the Los goes on we all could use a Kick in the ASS this book does exactly that .

GET IT NOW!!!

Trust the process

I really love Bergerons approach to life and this book lays it out succinctly and engagingly as told through the lens of the 2016 crossfit games. I will listen to this many more times when I need a reminder to trust the process and focus on excellence. Awesome book!

I have a whole new outlook on life

This book is for everyone. I am not a CrossFit athlete nor am I world class at anything, but the tools and point of view in this book is easy to follow and seem to immediately help make a positive change in my life

Takeaways

This book will teach you a lot about yourself and help shape your train of thought on positivity, will, determination, and show you why the mind is the most important part of your body to strengthen.
