Power Tool: Acceptance Vs. Denial – - International Coach Academy | International Coach Academy A Coaching Power Tool created by Shelley Breakell (Alcoholism Recovery Coach, UNITED KINGDOM) Life has no other discipline to impose, if we would but realize it, than to accept life unquestioningly. Everything we shut our eyes to, everything we run away from, everything we deny, denigrate, or despise, serves to defeat us in the end. What seems nasty, painful, evil, can become a source of beauty, joy, and strength, if faced with an open mind. From Wikipedia Denial (also called abnegation) is a defence mechanism postulated by Sigmund Freud, in which a person is faced with a fact that is too uncomfortable to accept and rejects it instead, insisting that it is not true despite what may be overwhelming evidence. The subject may use: simple denial: deny the reality of the unpleasant fact altogetherminimisation: admit the fact but deny its seriousness (a combination of denial and rationalization)Projection: admit both the fact and seriousness but deny responsibility.
How John Green Won the Internet by Anna Minard - Seattle Books The Fault in Our Stars by John Green (Dutton Juvenile, $17.99) On New Year's Day 2007, web designer Hank Green posted a video to YouTube outlining for his brother, young-adult author John Green, the rules of a video-blogging project: The brothers, then in their late 20s, had decided to quit "communicating through any textual means" for one year; their contact would be mainly through public YouTube videos uploaded every weekday. They did what anyone who's trying to make something authentic on the internet—as opposed to crass cross-platform branding—should do: They made stuff they liked. They gave each other challenges and punishments, told their favorite jokes ("What do neutrinos and I have in common? We're constantly penetrating your mom"), lectured at length about politics and books and science. At the time the videos started, John had published two moderately successful novels, which had been well reviewed, won awards, and become favorites among booksellers and librarians.
8 Tools for Self-Analysis: Mapping Your Strengths, Gifts & Roles I’ve always been fascinated with the workings of my own mind, and by human nature in general. With a background doing undergraduate work in Psychology, and graduate work in Social and Critical Theory, I’ve spent long hours contemplating individual motivations as well as group dynamics and the potential for (the much sought after, but often elusive) collective intelligence.If we want to determine what it takes to better function as groups, both in physical proximity and across distributed environments, I think it’s important to understand our own internal landscapes and how our strengths are best amplified in the presence of others with complimentary talents. Below is a list of online assessments that are useful in becoming more aware of one’s strengths, gifts and temperaments. I’ve pasted excerpts of my own results below, to give a sense of how the assessments are formatted. 1. Strengthsfinder 2.0 my top 5 results: You like to think. You love to learn.

The Wisdom Academy - Consciousness Studies Consciousness Studies This is a relatively new area of inquiry in the academic world. However, known as the “perennial philosophy,” its roots date back to the ancient Vedas of India and Taoist wisdom teachings of China. Even before that, it was the essence of various shamanic rituals found in tribal cultures across the globe. Today, it is an emerging interdisciplinary field offered in universities in the West, embracing psychology, philosophy, spirituality, anthropology, history, neuroscience, and cognitive science, as well as gender and race studies. A growing number of colleges in the US, Europe, and South America now offer masters degrees in Consciousness Studies, and a handful of universities offer interdisciplinary doctoral programs involving science, philosophy, and religion. As with all advanced degree programs, which can take from two to six years of dedicated study, three common obstacles need to be overcome: time, cost, and commitment. Personal Mentorships

The Challenges of Consciousness Studies : A Review | MyShareCafe In this article I deal with, Consciousness viz. one of the most familiar and the most mysterious aspect of our existence. The Conscious experiences define our lives, but the subjective, private, and qualitative nature of these experiences seems to resist scientific inquiry. For much of the twentieth century, consciousness research remained the exclusive preserve of philosophy, whose practitioners continue to grapple with the so-called ‘hard problem’ of why physical or physiological processes should give rise to conscious experiences at all. Yet people have wondered about consciousness since they wondered about anything, and advances in our comprehension have been slow in coming viz. due to the challenges posed by various aspects in our lives affecting our study in the mysterious dimension of consciousness. Sources of Challenges: A first core challenge is to specify the necessary and sufficient processes that underpin normal human consciousness. Conclusion
