The School of Life

A handbook to console, nourish and gently lead us on the path to emotional balance. There is no simple set of instructions that can guarantee sanity, but if you want to overcome emotional difficulties and become happier, psychotherapist Philippa Perry argues that there are four cornerstones to sanity you can influence to bring about change. By developing your self-observation skills, examining how you relate to others, breaking out of your comfort zone and exploring new ways of defining yourself, she suggests ways of getting over your problems and feeling more "normal". This book explores techniques to help you find emotional equilibrium, such as practising mindfulness, being emotionally honest in your relationships with others, challenging your brain in new and exciting ways, and finding cause for optimism. Through case studies, practical exercises and stories of individual experience, this insightful and inspirational book reaches out to anyone in need of a little emotional support from time to time.

How to Stay Sane

"Dies ist kein Erziehungsbuch im engeren Sinn. Es geht darum, wie wir selbst erzogen wurden und welchen Einfluss das auf unsere Elternschaft hat, darum, welche Fehler wir machen werden – vor allem solche, die wir nie machen wollten – und was wir dagegen tun können." Philippa Perry Kann ich meinen Eltern verzeihen? Darf ich eingestehen, dass ich als Mutter oder Vater einen Fehler gemacht habe? Ja, sagt die erfahrene Psychotherapeutin Philippa Perry. Was Kinder brauchen, sind keine falschen Ideale, sondern wahrhaftige Bezugspersonen. In ihrem Nr. 1-Bestseller erklärt Philippa Perry, worauf es zwischen Eltern und Kindern wirklich ankommt. Ihr leicht zugängliches und praxisnahes Konzept verrät: • wie unsere eigene Erziehung das Verhältnis zu unseren Kindern beeinflusst • wie wir aus Fehlern lernen (und sie wieder gut machen) • wie man aus negativen Verhaltensmustern ausbricht • wie man mit impulsiven Gefühlen umgeht • wie man lernt, wertschätzend miteinander zu sprechen

Het boek waarvan je wilde dat je ouders het hadden gelezen

A small-town psychotherapist draws on all her knowledge of the human psyche to solve the murder of a patient in this warm and witty mystery novel—by a real psychotherapist turned #1 internationally bestselling author. Living in picturesque coastal Sussex, Patricia Philipps enjoys her quiet life—walking the cliffs, shouting at poorly disciplined dog owners, telling tourists to keep their distance from the crumbling cliff edges, and cold-water swimming. Then a body washes up near Beachy Head, upending her carefully curated life as she discovers the deceased is one of her clients—her “Three O’Clock,” in fact. The police chalk it up to suicide, but Pat sees things differently. She reads people. She understands them—their lusts, their loves, their quirks, their ticks, their tells, their deepest desires. She looks, she listens, she watches. And she never jumps to conclusions. After all, she spends her days listening to secrets, resentments, fantasies, and motives. She’s certain someone wanted Henry Clayton dead. With her chaotic best friend Pritchard (part-time poet, full-time meddler) in tow, Pat swaps the therapist’s couch for the crime scene. It’s time to unpick the lies, untangle the egos, and catch a killer hiding in plain sight.
