Was wäre die Moderne ohne Religion? Welche Position nimmt Religion im Gefüge unserer modernen Gesellschaft ein? Ist sie nur ein Anachronismus, der den Wachstumskurs im globalen Wettkampf stört? Nur eine Spielart des Aberglaubens, der man privat gerne nachgehen darf, die man öffentlich aber bitte verschweigen soll? Dass die christlichen Kirchen hierzulande - auch unabhängig der aktuellen Skandale - ein massives Problem haben, ist kein Geheimnis. Nicht nur der Mitgliederschwund belegt dieses Resonanzproblem. Was aber, wenn Religion insgesamt keine Resonanz mehr in der demokratischen Gesellschaft erzeugt? Der renommierte Soziologe Hartmut Rosa stellt die Frage, die nicht weniger als zukunftsweisend für die Entwicklung unserer Moderne sein wird: Was verliert die Gesellschaft, was verliert die Demokratie, wenn die Religion darin keine Rolle mehr spielt? Worin liegt das Potenzial der Religion für unsere Zukunft als Demokratie? Ist es wirklich so klug, auf den reichen Schatz des Religiösen zu verzichten? In gewohnt messerscharfer Manier analysiert Rosa unsere Moderne und wagt das Gedankenspiel, was geschieht, wenn das Ideenreservoir jahrhundertealter Religionen in einer hochmodernen Gesellschaft verloren geht. Ein leidenschaftlicher Text, der auf Rosas Vortrag beim Würzburger Diözesanempfang am 17. Januar 2022 beruht. Mit einem Vorwort von Gregor Gysi.

"Nirvana ist unser höchstes Ziel. Es ist das Schönste, was wir in diesem Leben verwirklichen können." Thich Nhat Hanh   Der bekannte Zen-Meister Thich Nhat Hanh erklärt anhand eines alten buddhistischen Textes, wie Erleuchtung in unserem lauten Alltag verwirklicht werden kann. Viele Menschen glauben, dass Nirvana ein entfernter Ort der Glückseligkeit sei. Doch schon der Buddha lehrte, dass es nur im Hier und Jetzt zu finden ist. Vor diesem Hintergrund erläutert Thich Nhat Hanh in diesem buddhistischen Standardwerk die 36 Verse aus dem "Kapitel über Nirvana" des Chinesischen Dharmapada. Er zeigt, wie sehr unser Denken, Reden und Handeln unsere Zukunft bestimmen und wie wir tiefen Frieden und geistige Ruhe in jedem Augenblick verwirklich können. Mit Achtsamkeit und Meditation können wir unserem Leben eine neue, heilsame Richtung geben. Sobald wir bewusst mitbekommen, was in unserem Geist wirklich geschieht, eröffnen sich uns Möglichkeiten für unser Sein.  Wir können frei werden von allen einengenden Vorstellungen - empfänglich für die große Freiheit.  "Nirvana ist ein Wunsch, der sehr tief geht. Stellen Sie sich vor, Sie wachen um vier Uhr morgens auf. Der Mond und die Sterne leuchten hell am Himmel. Die Bäume erwachen mit dem Rauschen des Windes. Alles, was Sie tun müssen, ist, unter Ihrer warmen Bettdecke hervorzuschlüpfen, sich etwas anzuziehen und hinauszugehen, um die Schönheit dieser Nacht zu genießen. Dieses Glück ist vergleichbar mit Nirvana, wir müssen uns aufmachen und empfänglich werden für die große Freiheit."

Democratic Situations places the making and doing of democratic politics at the centre of relational research. The book turns the well-known sites of contemporary Euro-American democracy - elections, bureaucracies, public debates and citizen participation - into fluctuating democratic situations where supposedly untouchable democratic ideals are contested and warped in practice. The empirical cases demonstrate that democracy cannot be reduced to theoretical schemes of conflict, institutions or deliberation. Instead, they offer an urgently needed renewal of our understanding of democratic politics at a time when conventional ideas increasingly fail to capture current events such as Brexit, Trump and Covid19.

When it comes to working with dysregulated children, sometimes the biggest behaviors come in the smallest containers. From tantrums and defiance to self-injury and withdrawal, even the most skilled professionals find themselves focused on extinguishing the troubling behavior rather than stepping back to ask: What is the underlying emotional need? In Big Behaviors in Small Containers, you'll find 131 practical, fun, and ready-to-use play therapy interventions that shift the paradigm around problematic behaviors to allow for therapeutic growth and healing. Based on TraumaPlay®, a treatment approach that prioritizes attachment, co-regulation, and the science of the stress response system, the interventions inside will help kids: ¿ Develop a sense of safety and security ¿ Expand their window of tolerance ¿ Cope adaptively with anger, anxiety, and other strong emotions ¿ Enhance their emotional literacy ¿ Strengthen social skills and self-esteem ¿ Challenge and overcome unhelpful thoughts ¿ Develop a coherent narrative around trauma and other difficult experiences ¿ And more! Whether you're a therapist, teacher, doctor, caregiver, or trusted grown-up in a child's life, the tools inside will allow you to become the co-regulating, nurturing, and consistent presence that your "small container" needs to remain grounded in the face of stress, big feelings, and difficult situations.

Most people are stuck living life on autopilot. Are you ready to break free? At the root of all healing work is awakening consciousness, a process of shining light into the darkness of the unknown. In recent years, Dr. Nicole LePera has become the leading voice in psychological self-healing, helping millions of people around the world rise out of survival mode to consciously create authentic lives they love.

But as Dr. Nicole shares, we also have the innate ability to awaken to and change the behaviors and habits that no longer serve us, allowing us to step into the highest versions of ourselves. And as you work through this book and witness these default habits, from sleep to movement to eating, through emotional reactivity and core beliefs, you will never again have to ask: ?but where do I start??How to Meet Your Self is a revolutionary guide, a kind and encouraging companion, and a comprehensive masterwork of self-understanding that will radically transform your inner work and outer world.

A vivid and devastating (The New York Times) portrait of an indomitable girl-from Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Andrea Elliott From its first indelible pages to its rich and startling conclusion, Invisible Child had me, by turns, stricken, inspired, outraged, illuminated, in tears, and hungering for reimmersion in its Dickensian depths. -Ayad Akhtar, author of Homeland Elegies ONE OF THE TEN BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: The New York Times * ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: The Atlantic, The New York Times Book Review, Time, NPR, Library Journal In Invisible Child, Pulitzer Prize winner Andrea Elliott follows eight dramatic years in the life of Dasani, a girl whose imagination is as soaring as the skyscrapers near her Brooklyn shelter. In this sweeping narrative, Elliott weaves the story of Dasani's childhood with the history of her ancestors, tracing their passage from slavery to the Great Migration north. As Dasani comes of age, New York City's homeless crisis has exploded, deepening the chasm between rich and poor. She must guide her siblings through a world riddled by hunger, violence, racism, drug addiction, and the threat of foster care. Out on the street, Dasani becomes a fierce fighter to protect those who I love. When she finally escapes city life to enroll in a boarding school, she faces an impossible question: What if leaving poverty means abandoning your family, and yourself? A work of luminous and riveting prose, Elliott's Invisible Child reads like a page-turning novel. It is an astonishing story about the power of resilience, the importance of family and the cost of inequality-told through the crucible of one remarkable girl. Finalist for the PEN/John Kenneth Galbraith Award.

This book describes an entirely new way of conducting hypnotherapeutic interventions - Stephen Gilligan's generative trance. The first generation of trance work, the traditional hypnosis that still holds sway in most places, considers that both the conscious mind and the unconscious mind of the client are, to put it bluntly, idiots. So trance work involves first 'knocking out' the conscious mind and then talking to the unconscious mind like a 2-year old that needs to be told how to behave. Milton Erickson created the second generation of trance work. He approached the unconscious as having creative wisdom and each person as extraordinarily unique. Thus, rather than trying to programme the unconscious with new instructions, Erickson saw trance as an experiential learning state where a person's own creative unconscious could generate healing and transformation. At the same time Erickson, for the most part, carried the same low opinion of the conscious mind. Thus, Ericksonian hypnosis looks to bypass the conscious mind with indirect suggestions and dissociation and depotentiate it with confusion techniques.
