Conscious Feelings
Living Life Closer to Your Own Truth
by Clinton Callahan
This book is about feelings, and the ways that we, as individuals and as a culture, have numbed ourselves against them. It is about unleashing the possibility of conscious feelings to re-make our lives into what really matters to us. The central framework of the book is built with the Ten Distinctions for Consciously Feeling, including: *Learning the potent difference between thoughts and feelings, which most people confuse *Sorting out feelings (based in the present) from emotions (based in the past or in somebody else’s life) *Fully allowing that feelings are absolutely-neutral energy and information, neither good nor bad, neither positive nor negative. Each chapter is enriched with Thoughtmaps—clear diagrams of ways we presently think and ways we could possibly think—and supported by an abundance of practical experiments to try. The Power of Conscious Feelings is so much more than a book of selfhelp or inspiration. Ultimately, it is about our connection with and responsibility for the fate of the Earth.

Humanities & Social SciencesA Guilty Conscience – Nuisance or Asset?
by Maja Storch, Gerhard Roth
A guilty conscience can be a real nuisance. There is simply no rest and you can’t just turn it off through rational thought. Psychologically, in psychotherapy, advising and coaching, a guilty conscience is one of the most persistent and difficult symptoms to pin down. Maja Storch and Gerhard Roth ask the questions: why feelings of guilt are so prolonged and how to deal with them. Gerhard Roth explains which components of the human brain, over the course of its development, give rise to a phenomenon as complex as a guilty conscience. Using three practical and easily understandable examples, Maja Storch presents a system for everyday use which can be used to get to the root of your own guilty conscience and to develop a plan for dealing with it.

Humanities & Social SciencesJuly 2021Critical theory and feeling
The affective politics of the early Frankfurt School
by Simon Mussell
This book offers a unique and timely reading of the early Frankfurt School in response to the recent 'affective turn' within the arts and humanities. Resisting the overly rationalist tendencies of political philosophy, it argues that critical theory actively cultivates a powerful connection between thinking and feeling, and rediscovers a range of often neglected concepts that were of vital importance to the first generation of critical theorists, including melancholia, hope, (un)happiness, objects and mimesis. In doing so, it brings the dynamic work of Walter Benjamin, Theodor Adorno, Ernst Bloch and Siegfried Kracauer into conversation with more recent debates around politics and affect. An important intervention in the fields of affect studies and social and political thought, Critical theory and feeling shows that sensuous experience is at the heart of the Frankfurt School's affective politics.

Humanities & Social SciencesJune 2021Feeling the strain
A cultural history of stress in twentieth-century Britain
by Jill Kirby
Examining the popular discourse of nerves and stress, this book provides a historical account of how ordinary Britons understood, explained and coped with the pressures and strains of daily life during the twentieth century. It traces the popular, vernacular discourse of stress, illuminating not just how stress was known, but the ways in which that knowledge was produced. Taking a cultural approach, the book focuses on contemporary popular understandings, revealing continuity of ideas about work, mental health, status, gender and individual weakness, as well as the changing socio-economic contexts that enabled stress to become a ubiquitous condition of everyday life by the end of the century. With accounts from sufferers, families and colleagues it also offers insight into self-help literature, the meanings of work and changing dynamics of domestic life, delivering a complementary perspective to medical histories of stress.

Humanities & Social SciencesNovember 2011Containing trauma
Nursing work in the First World War
by Christine Hallett, Bertrand Taithe, Penny Summerfield, Peter Gatrell, Max Jones, Ana Carden-Coyne
In this lucid and cogently-argued book, Christine Hallett explores the nature of the practices developed by nurses and their volunteer-assistants during the First World War. She argues that nurses found meaning in their complex and stressful work by identifying it as a process of 'containing trauma'. Broad in its scope and detailed in its research, the book analyses the work of nurses from Britain, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, South Africa and the United States of America. It draws on highly personal writings: letters and diaries drawn from archives and libraries throughout the world. This wide-ranging book explores a range of treatment scenarios, from the Western and Eastern Fronts to the Eastern Mediterranean, Mesopotamia and India. It considers both the efforts of nurses to provide physical, emotional and moral containment to their patients, and the work they did to maintain their own physical and emotional integrity. ;
