He discusses an original idea, and one I've never even heard about called post traumatic growth. The term post traumatic growth is a relatively new term and is defined as the experience of positive change that occurs as the result of the struggle and highly challenging life crises. The benefits are endless and among them are an increased sense of personal strength, changed priorities, and a richer existential and spiritual life.

<description><![CDATA[Many of today's hypnotherapists may be shocked by the modernity of Dr Braid's concepts of hypnotherapy. Born in Scotland in 1795, he died in 1860 leaving behind a body of work that laid the foundation for the scientific understanding of hypnotherapy. This meticulous compilation of Dr James Braid's prolific writings allows us to not only admire the brilliant surgeon's theories but to be amazed at his anticipation of what we hitherto considered to be modern innovations such as cognitive behavioural therapy and the non-existence of the subconscious.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Past life regression (PLR) may be both an experimental technique and a form of therapy, but it has scientific credibility only if reincarnation itself is proven scientifically to exist. The existence of reincarnation is not yet a scientific truth. Recent studies indicate that reincarnation merits acknowledgment as a scientific hypothesis because it can be falsified or confirmed through scientific investigation. For this reason Dr. Ian Stevenson's international field studies are immensely important. Any idea that has clinical usefulness has clinical validity, but the clinical validity of PLR has yet to be convincingly demonstrated.]]></description>

Uncannily, the small book foreshadowed Carlson's unexpected death three years later of a pulmonary embolism.   Following his death, Kristine published the book, adding her own responses to these questions. Titled, "An Hour to Live, An Hour to Love,"  Kristine asks the audience to discover their own answers.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[The focus of this review is on part five of Lefrancois text, Psychology for Teaching,  which contains ninety eight pages.  This section is on instructional leadership which is subdivided into four chapters.   Motivation, teaching, discipline, classroom management and individualized instruction are topics covered in chapters eleven to fifteen.  Generally, classroom practice requires a great deal more than what had been gleaned from educational psychology and reported in the first ten chapters.  It demands, among other things, interpersonal and management skills of the highest order, patience, imagination, enthusiasm and worth.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[The "I's" have it; the ego that is. Whenever your speech is dotted with "I's," especially "I want's" and "I have's," you are most likely not coming from your deeper, authentic self, but from your ego self. This is what I have been learning through Oprah Winfrey's series of free webcasts with Eckhart Tolle in their lessons/discussions on Tolle's amazing book, A New Earth, Awakening to Your Life's Purpose.  ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[When I first became interested in dreams, I focused on their creative potential. Apocryphal stories of scientists who had dreams that led them to important laboratory discoveries or inventions inspired me. When I began to teach dream work, this creative, applied aspect of dreams seemed to have the most appeal to folks. People naturally wonder "what's in it for me?" to justify the time needed to study dreams. ]]></description>

<title>&quot;The Great Field - Soul at Play in a Conscious Universe&quot; by John James - Book Review</title>
<link>http://EzineArticles.com/954456</link>
<guid>http://EzineArticles.com/954456</guid>
<pubDate>Wed, 30 Jan 2008 09:55:47 -0600</pubDate>
<description><![CDATA[Therapist John James, PhD, draws on nearly twenty years of therapeutic practice to present elegant and sometimes startling conclusions in his book "The Great Field." John James explains about the nature of the universe and its implications for the human experience. Drawing on the established scientific wisdom of biology and astronomy, he shows that everything that exists has been created out of, and within the vast domains, of energy that form the Great Field, and that soul, that energetic part of us that connects with the universe, is as powerful a creative factor in our physical and psychic development as DNA.  Because his findings are based upon an innovative combination of scientific evidence, diverse cultural and spiritual wisdom, and therapeutic case histories, James conclusions provide stimulating and original theory of how the Great Field is the foundation of everything in the universe including the personal energy we call soul. ]]></description>
