Self-Help

This is a book about self-sabotage. Why we do it, when we do it, and how to stop doing it—for good. Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential. For centuries, the mountain has been used as a metaphor for the big challenges we face, especially ones that seem impossible to overcome. To scale our mountains, we actually have to do the deep internal work of excavating trauma, building resilience, and adjusting how we show up for the climb. In the end, it is not the mountain we master, but ourselves.

As a clinical psychologist, Dr Nicole LePera found herself frustrated by the limitations of traditional psychotherapy. Wanting more for her patients - and for herself - she began a journey to develop a united philosophy of mental, physical and spiritual health that equips people with the tools necessary to heal themselves. After experiencing the life-changing results herself, she began to share what she'd learned with others - and The Holistic Psychologist was born.

Now Dr LePera is ready to share her much-requested protocol with the world. In How to Do the Work, she offers both a manifesto for self-healing and an essential guide to creating a more vibrant, authentic, and joyful life. Drawing on the latest research from both scientific research and healing modalities, Dr LePera helps us recognise how adverse experiences and trauma in childhood live with us, keeping us stuck engaging in patterns of codependency, emotional immaturity, and trauma bonds. Unless addressed, these self-sabotaging behaviours can quickly become cyclical, leaving people feeling unhappy, unfulfilled, and unwell.

In How to Do the Work, Dr LePera offers readers the support and tools that will allow them to break free from destructive behaviours to reclaim and recreate their lives. Nothing short of a paradigm shift, this is a celebration of empowerment that will forever change the way we approach mental wellness and self-care.

هل سبق لك أن تعاملت مع شخص سام؟ هناك احتمال كبير أن هذا حدث، واحتمال أكبر أنك لم تعرف قط. السيكوباتيون متلاعبون بارعون، لدرجة أنك تبدأ في قبول السلوكيات السامة والمتطرفة على أنَّها تصرفات معتادة… حتى وإن آلمتك. في السعي المستمر لتحقيق مبتغاهم، سيفعل السيكوباتيون كل ما يلزم للهيمنة على الآخرين. إنهم يختبئون وراء حجاب من الحياة الطبيعية، ويتحكمون في أصدقائهم وشركائهم مثل البيادق في لعبة الشطرنج. هذا الكتاب أول دليل للنجاة من السيكوباتية والتعافي من آثارها.

“ساعد نفسك لتعيش حياة أفضل. يؤثر علم النفس على كل ما نقوم به، فهو يحدد القرارات التي نتخذها، والعلاقات التي نبنيها، والأدوار التي نؤديها، والأماكن التي نعيش فيها. ويتأثر سلوكنا بشكل أكبر بتغير الفصول، مما يشجع الكثير منا على الوقوع في أنماط غير مفيدة مرارًا وتكرارًا… كل عام. في «عام كي تغير رأيك» تشرح الدكتورة لوسي مادوكس، المتخصصة في علم النفس الإكلينيكي، كيف تؤثر التقلبات النفسية على حياتنا، وتحدد المشكلات الأكثر شيوعًا في كل شهر، وتوضح لنا كيف نستعين بالتفكير في تجارب الماضي، سواء المبهجة أو المؤلمة، والاعتماد على الأفكار المبنية على الأدلة من عالم علم النفس – التي تعلمتها المؤلفة خلال خمسة عشر عامًا من عملها طبيبةً نفسية إكلينيكية – لنتمكن من تعلُّم كيف نعيش حياة أفضل وأكثر وعيًا وإيجابية.”
