First published in 1980, Existential Psychotherapy is widely considered to be the foundational text in its field—the first to offer a methodology for helping patients to develop more adaptive responses to life’s core existential dilemmas. In this seminal work, American psychiatrist Irvin Yalom finds the essence of existential psychotherapy and gives it a coherent structure, synthesizing its historical background, core tenets, and usefulness to the practice.

Why do we seek out altered states of consciousness, or why, in some cases, do they happen unbidden? What do we see and hear, and what happens emotionally, physically, and psychologically? How and why are these experiences different from or similar to one another? Are they meaningful? And what do we do with them after they have passed? Addressing these questions, renowned psychedelic researcher Rick Strassman, M.D., draws upon his journals and analyses of dozens of episodes of altered consciousness that occurred during, or are intimately tied to, his life between birth and young adulthood.

By summer 2008, James Tripp had been working professionally with hypnosis for 6 years. Whilst he had used what he had learned to great effect with his clients (from manual therapy to coaching and changework), it had become increasingly clear that something was amiss with the traditional trance model—instead of his clients responding to suggestion as a result of entering 'trance', they were apparently entering 'trance' as a result of being given suggestions. The cart seemed very much before the horse.

Che cosa ci rende diversi dagli altri animali, anche da quelli più vicini a noi come i primati? Pur condividendo con essi la socialità e la capacità di comunicare, noi umani ci differenziamo per un linguaggio particolare, quello della parola. Oggi, le straordinarie possibilità di comunicazione aperte dall'era digitale inducono una fuga dalla parola e dalla conversazione; questo è evidente sia nei giovani chiusi in una stanza sotto una pioggia di messaggi sia negli anziani emarginati dalle nuove tecnologie, che si trovano ad affrontare tutti una paradossale solitudine.

"Sono passati trent'anni dalla prima pubblicazione sull'impresa di Franco Basaglia e del suo gruppo, impresa che avrebbe modificato - fra difficoltà, pregiudizi, inadempienze, ignoranza, fraintendimenti intenzionali e non - il panorama dell'assistenza psichiatrica in Italia e ben oltre i suoi confini. Che cos'è la psichiatria?, il primo dei volumi che ora si ristampano, è uscito nel '67 e fotografa una realtà in movimento: un manicomio tradizionale che sta aprendo porte, sbarre, cancelli; che ha eliminato contenzioni e violenza; che sta ragionando sulla propria storia, sulla qualità della terapia che offre.

Our relationship challenges can’t be solved with the same thinking patterns that created them.

The Overthinker's Guide to Relationship Communication is an honest exploration of what happens when an overthinking mind meets matters of the heart.

His notebooks, hundreds of years after his death, influenced modern flight, optometry, and photography. How could you follow in his footsteps?

Par l'auteur de Votre cerveau vous joue des tours. Aujourd'hui, tout, ou presque, semble devoir trouver son explication dans le cerveau. Nos bonheurs, nos émotions, nos addictions, nos peurs, nos croyances, nos performances, notre capacité à changer individuellement ou collectivement ne seraient qu'un effet des interactions de nos neurones. Mais cette profusion de discours sur le cerveau – cette neuromania – se fait au prix de raccourcis, d'approximations, voire de contre-vérités.

19 aprile 1943. Albert Hofmann, chimico in forze all'azienda farmaceutica Sandoz di Basilea, inforca la bicicletta e si avvia verso casa. Sembra un giorno come un altro, se non fosse che ha appena assunto 250 microgrammi di dietilammide-25 dell'acido lisergico, un composto da lui stesso sintetizzato nella ricerca di uno stimolante della circolazione sanguigna. Ciò che accade durante il tragitto sconvolge la sua nozione del reale: visioni coloratissime, meravigliose e mostruose, percezioni di realtà parallele, terrori, euforie. È nato l'Lsd.
