Tazkiya Therapy in Islāmic Psychotherapy (Islamic Psychology and Psychotherapy)
by Bagus RiyonoThis book explores tazkiya therapy, a holistic psychological approach based on Qur’anic guidance and rooted in the understanding of human beings as multidimensional –that is, physical, psychological, social and spiritual beings.The book starts with a detailed explanation or the object, the process and the purpose of tazkiya therapy, along with an account of the boundaries and the enabling factors of the approach. Rather than a singular theoretical framework, tazkiya therapy is a dynamic and flexible approach that integrates multiple frameworks and disciplines to grow the human soul, cognition, emotion and behaviour. Although it is a multidimensional approach, the process of therapy is step-by-step, and the middle part of the book presents the key stages in the approach. Within these steps, the therapist is given seven different approaches that they can customise to the needs of the client depending on whether they need assistance with thinking patterns, emotional disturbance, a behavioural problem or a dysfunctional nervous system. The book ends with a comprehensive summary of the model, a series of case studies, a future outlook on training and an application for continuing the study and practice of tazkiya therapy.This book, based on the foundation that tazkiya therapy covers issues that are spiritual in nature and always connects to Allah in facilitating the healing process, will fulfil the needs of practicing Muslim psychologists, psychiatrists and students of psychology and Islāic studies.

by Diana WangLa psicóloga Diana Wang, con casi cincuenta años de ejercicio como terapeuta de parejas, recaba algunas observaciones, consejos y lecciones que fue aprendiendo tanto de sus pacientes como de su propia experiencia para todos los que quieren compartir la vida con otra persona. Nos arrojamos a las relaciones de pareja ilusionados y convencidos de que el amor y el deseo durarán por siempre. Pero esa sensación de mariposas en la panza, que algunos llaman infatuación, no es eterna. Con suerte, cuando el fuego se va apagando, queda el rescoldo tibio y amable de una buena relación, confianza, lazos familiares y expectativas a futuro. Nos hemos formado en una cultura que lee todo lo anterior como un pobre consuelo ante la falta del fuego sublime de la pasión desatada. Y pasado un tiempo, descubrimos que tenemos poco en común con el otro, que las peleas son una constante y que no coincidimos en casi nada. Con la extensión de la vida y el cambio de paradigma de este siglo, la pareja de larga data tambalea, aunque el tema ha recibido poca atención en nuestra sociedad. ¿Cómo hacemos para sostener un proyecto de a dos en un mundo donde la idea de enamorarse para siempre ya no tiene tanta fuerza? La psicóloga Diana Wang, con casi cinco décadas de ejercicio como terapeuta de parejas, recaba algunas observaciones, consejos y lecciones que fue aprendiendo tanto de sus pacientes como de su experiencia personal. Con humor, calidez y realismo, aborda temas como el dinero, el sexo, la monogamia, la fidelidad, los hijos, los nietos, los suegros, el espacio personal, los secretos, los divorcios, las nuevas parejas y las familias ensambladas.

Teach Only Love: Learning to Live Beyond Fear
by Gerald G. JampolskyDr. Jampolsky believes there is another way of looking at life that makes it possible for us to walk through this world in love, at peace and without fear. This other way requires no external battles, but only that we heal ourselves. It is a process he calls “attitudinal healing,” because it is an internal and primarily mental process. Jampolsky believes that attitudinal healing, when properly practiced, will allow anyone, regardless of her circumstances, to begin experiencing the joy and harmony that each moment holds, and to start her journey on a path of love and hope.The mind can be retrained. Within this fact lies our freedom. Our attitudes determine whether we experience peace or fear, whether we are well or sick, free or imprisoned. Love, in its true meaning, is the attitude that this book is about. Love is total acceptance and total giving—with no boundaries and no exceptions. Love, being the only reality, cannot be transformed. It can only extend and expand. It unfolds endlessly and beautifully upon itself. Love sees everyone as blameless, for it recognizes the light within each one of us is. Love is the total absence of fear and the basis for all attitudinal healing.The principles of attitudinal healing have been expanded since Teach Only Love was first published in 1983. There are now twelve principles, which are used in the 150 Centers for Attitudinal Healing around the world. Dr. Jampolsky believes that these principles have a universal appeal that crosses cultural and religious barriers. He has repeatedly seen how people’s lives have transformed when these principles became their heartbeat and their way of communicating with others.

Teach Yourself Jung
by Ruth SnowdenCarl Jung (1875-1961) was a Swiss psychologist and psychiatrist who is famous for founding a new system of psychology that he called 'analytical psychology'. Jung has gradually acquired a huge following and many therapists today are trained in the Jungian method. However, his work also contains many important insights into the lives of humankind, far beyond the field of therapy, that have only recently begun to be more widely understood. He was one of the first great thinkers to try and bridge gaps between the thinking of East and West, Christian and pagan. He demonstrated ways in which Western culture, so bound up in science and logic, was often sadly deficient in the spiritual awareness and subjective insight shown in other cultures and at other times in history. This book provides a general introduction to both Jung and his work, and the section at the end, Taking it further, suggests ways in which you can continue your study of this fascinating and great thinker.
