Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Twelve practical strategies to experience more joy and feel less guilt as a working parent, drawn from ACT, the groundbreaking therapy technique that has helped countless people. Dr. Yael Schonbrun calls out the myth of the work-life balance and offers practical strategies that can help us reframe our approach to working and parenting from the inside out. Based in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), these strategies won't create more hours in the day, but they can shift how we label our experiences, revise the stories we tell ourselves about working and parenting, and recognize the value we get from each role. Differing values and commitments pull working parents in opposite directions and the social supports families desperately need are lacking. Yet even with these very real challenges, we can find more peace and less stress. Some of these strategies include: Getting clear on our values and using these to help us make what often feel like no-win choices around time and resources Practicing mindfulness in both parenting and working Subtracting less meaningful obligations from our lives These steps can help you crush both roles, with examples from the author's research that show families of many shapes and backgrounds'.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Exploring the confluence of ancient Chinese spirituality and modern Western environmental thought, Wild Mind, Wild Earth reveals the unrecognized kinship of mind and nature that must be reanimated if we are to end our destruction of the planet.Earth is embroiled in its sixth major extinction event-this time caused not by asteroids or volcanos, but by us. At bottom, preventing this sixth extinction is a spiritual/philosophical problem, for it is the assumptions defining us and our relation to earth that are driving the devastation. Those assumptions insist on a fundamental separation of human and earth that devalues earth and enables our exploitative relation to it.In Wild Mind, Wild Earth, David Hinton explores modes of seeing and being that could save the planet by reestablishing a deep kinship between human and earth: the insights of primal cultures and the Ch'an (Zen) Buddhism of ancient China. He also shows how these insights have become well-established in the West over the last two hundred years, through the work of poets and philosophers and scientists. This offers marvelous hope and beauty-but like so many of us, Hinton recognizes the sixth extinction is now an inexorable and perhaps unstoppable tragedy. And he reveals how those primal/Zen insights enable us to inhabit even the unfurling catastrophe as a profound kind of liberation. Wild Mind, Wild Earth is a remarkable and revitalizing journey.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Vajra Wisdom contains two of the most important explanations of the 'development stage' of meditation, relevant for most practitioners in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition.Now available in paperback for the first time.The practices of deity, mantra, and wisdom are also known within the Tibetan system as the "development stage,' because the practitioner is said to attain spiritual insight by developing meditative visualizations that bring the experience of awakening directly into one's present life, without having to wait for later spiritual fulfillment.Vajra Wisdom presents the commentaries oftwo great nineteenth-century Nyingma masters,KunkyenTenpeNyima andShechenGyaltsapIV,which guide practitioners engaged in development stage practice through a series of straightforward instructions. The rarity of this kind of material in English makes it indispensable for practitioners and scholars alike.The goal of the development stage of meditation in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition is to realize the inseparability of phenomena and great emptiness. Using the methods of deity visualization, mantra recitation, and meditative absorption, the practitioner arrives at this nonconceptual view.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In the past hundred years, haiku has gone far beyond its Japanese origins to become a worldwide phenomenon with the classic poetic form growing and evolving as it has adapted to the needs of the whole range of languages and cultures that have embraced it. This proliferation of the joy of haiku is cause for celebration but it can also compel us to go back to the beginning: to look at haiku s development during the centuries before it was known outside Japan. This in-depth study of haiku history begins with the great early masters of the form like Basho, Buson, and Issa and goes all the way to twentieth-century greats, like Santoka. It also focuses on an important aspect of traditional haiku that is less known in the West: haiku art. All the great haiku masters created paintings (called haiga) or calligraphy in connection with their poems, and the words and images were intended to be enjoyed together, enhancing each other, and each adding its own dimension to the reader s and viewer s understanding. Here one of the leading haiku scholars of the West takes us on a tour of haiku poetry s evolution, providing along the way a wealth of examples of the poetry and the art inspired by it.
