Out of the Blue: Six Non-Medication Ways to Relieve Depression
Author: Bill O'Hanlon
Publisher: W. W. Norton & Company
ISBN: 0393709302
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
Alternatives to standard drug treatments for this common problem. Depression is one of the most common issues that people bring to therapy. It is also a mental health condition with several well-known and readily available medications to treat it. That said, every clinician knows that medications do not work for all clients, and even if they do work they can often come with unwelcome side effects that are difficult and hard to bear. In short, medications are not foolproof. Fortunately today, with rising interest in non-drug approaches, effective and easy-to-implement alternative strategies exist for dealing with depression in your clients, either in conjunction with medication treatments or on their own. Six of the best are presented in this book. With his characteristic mix of insightful clinical anecdote and personal narrative, seasoned therapist Bill O’Hanlon lays out six of his go-to non-medication strategies for clinicians to use with their own depressed clients. These include “marbling” (training people to intersperse happy memories with sad ones so that over time they move away from a feeling of such negativity); challenging isolation in clients (helping them to see the benefits of the social world); and understanding neuroplasticity and how it can be used to your clients’ advantage. Bill O’Hanlon writes from a place of experience. As a youth, he was so severely depressed that he contemplated suicide. His successful rise from that dark place, some 30 years ago, can be seen as the starting point for this book. Many of the strategies he used to overcome his own illness he now puts forward here, with compassion and wisdom, so that other clinicians may benefit. Every depressed person experiences his or her own variety of the illness, and as therapists we need to help our clients discover their own paths to healing. Armed with the compelling, non-drug strategies in this book, clinicians will be able to do just that, opening up a new route to health and wellness. Whether you routinely prescribe psychotropic drugs or would never think of doing so, this book may offer just the advice you need to advance your therapy work and make a real difference in your depressed clients’ lives.

Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
Out of the Blue is the harrowing true story of one woman's journey to be heard. At a young age, Samantha Killary was introduced to a world no child should ever know. Sexual assault, physical violence, and psychological grooming altered her path forever distorting her perceptions of love, lust, and legitimacy and it was all done at the hands of one of Louisville Metro Police Department's most trusted officers. Throughout her sorted journey, Samantha fell victim to the familiar cycles of drug addiction, promiscuity, abusive relationships, even teetering on the edge of the sex trade. But she is a victim no longer. Her abuser's current status as an inmate in one of Kentucky's most infamous prisons is a testament to that. Bringing her truth to light did not come without a cost. She is now isolated from a family she loves and community that failed her on every level. This is a story of hope, heartache, and the courage to speak out and like all tales of survival, it is one that deserves to be heard.

Outta the Blue
Author: Helen Hyche-Freeman
Publisher: Dorrance Publishing
ISBN: 1638671168
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 114
Book Description
Outta the Blue By: Helen Hyche-Freeman Outta the Blue is a memoir that begins with Helen Hyche-Freeman’s parents and grandparents during the Great Depression era, World War II, and the Jim Crow South. That period in history was hard for everyone, miserable for many, and unbearable for others, especially African-Americans just coming out of slavery. The message in this book represents a part of history that many would prefer to forget but unfortunately, we are still learning lessons that were not learned at that time because many chose to forget and the mindset just swept it under the rug. The lives of black families from that period are rarely written about. There are many entries of struggle in this book that Helen either lived through and dealt with and/or overcame due to personal strength of character from God, perseverance, tenacity, the will to overcome, learning from mistakes and failures, God’s guidance, protection, and presence, which have been constant in her life. God is real. We must trust him, have faith in him, obey his commands, and repent of our sins. There are consequences for our sins that will fall on our lives, our children’s lives, and/or our grandchildren’s lives. That is a heavy price to pay for sins. We all deal with trials and tribulations in this life; even Jesus had trials and tribulations and he was perfect.

Pages : 329
Book Description
“It may seem like I came out of the blue. But, my road was long, windy, full of hurdles, and even some dead ends. I lost family. I lost friends. I even lost my way. When I reached what felt like rock bottom, I realized I had a responsibility to everyone who believed in me and to kids, like me, who just needed a chance and something to believe in.”—from the epilogue of Out of the Blue Victor Cruz, the Super Bowl-winning and record-breaking wide receiver, is best known for his explosive plays and salsa touchdown celebrations. While his meteoric rise in the NFL looked like the result of a magical year, it was actually a lifetime in the making. Raised in Paterson, New Jersey’s gritty Fourth Ward, Cruz overcame numerous setbacks through hard work, perseverance, and the support of his loving family—from his grandmother who gave him his signature dance moves; to his late father, a former firefighter, who introduced him to football and taught him how to play; to his hard-working, single mother who never let him give up in the face of a challenge. They all helped to keep him on the right path, as did his coaches, but Cruz’s journey was never easy. There were family tragedies, academic struggles, injuries, and more. In this inspiring, never-before-seen account, Cruz pays tribute to the people and places that made him the man he is today, recounts his most defining moments, and illustrates how his hardships ultimately unleashed his impenetrable will to win. Out of the Blue is a candid and moving reflection of an overlooked and undersized athlete with an uncommon last name in American football that was determined to beat the odds and earn his chance to succeed.

Author: Mary Terhune
Publisher: Hay House, Inc
ISBN: 140194793X
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 185
Book Description
In this fascinating book, Mary Terhune shares her personal journey of spiritual awakening, mystical encounters, and visions, as well as the universal truths revealed to her in the process. During a life crisis, she spontaneously received revelations from Jesus that transformed her conscious awareness, changing her life forever. A profound experience of self-realization brought her the message that divinity is humankind’s natural state—one we need to reclaim. She then had an encounter during meditation that showed her, beyond any shadow of doubt, that birth and dying are actually illusions. Mary went on to have an amazing introduction to homeopathy, which expanded her training as a registered nurse into a different understanding and approach to disease, prevention, curing, and healing. Mary urges us all to become mindful of our omniscient essence—and embrace paradigm shifts in preventive and curative medicine as we awaken to consciousness as the primary force of life. Out of the Blue inspires every reader to live as an awakened being and a knowledgeable master of one’s own destiny and well-being.
