Living with Multiple Sclerosis - Silvia Bonino, Emanuela Calandri, Martina Borghi, Federica Graziano

Connecting theory, research and intervention, Living with Multiple Sclerosis offers an effective, innovative, and comprehensive group-based psychological support intervention specifically aimed at people newly diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (LiMS).The book explains the theoretical foundations of the intervention, based on developmental psychology in the life cycle, considering the illness as a challenge to personal development. It analyses the psychological aspects addressed in the intervention: the redefinition of identity, the sense of coherence, the sense of self-efficacy in coping with the illness, the emotional experiences, the relationship between thoughts and emotions, and the effective communication strategies. Describing all session-by-session activities that are carried out in the group meetings, it allows for timely replication of the intervention, whilst still accommodating possible adaptations to specific local and cultural contexts. It gives a concrete, positive perspective of personal fulfilment for people living with MS. Furthermore, it illustrates the central role of research in the project and presents new perspectives in research and intervention focused on parenthood.The book is valuable reading for psychologists, researchers, and health professionals such as occupational or rehabilitation therapists working with people with MS as well as students specialising in clinical, health or developmental psychology.

Reading Literature and Chronic Pain - Dr Josie Billington

This valuable and insightful study into chronic pain and its treatment advances a striking analysis of the complex phenomenon of chronic pain, also attesting to the importance of the medical humanities in addressing urgent questions that medical science alone cannot resolve.The primary purpose of this book is twofold. First, to demonstrate empirically – against a conceptual background drawn from multiple disciplines and knowledge bases (historical, medical, neurobiological, psychological, socio/anthropological) – how an apparently ‘soft’ intervention such as literary reading can effectively combat symptoms of a condition as intractable as chronic pain. Second, to explore what this evidence tells us about pain (as a lived experience as well as a condition in urgent need of new treatment options) and about literature and the reading of fiction and poetry as therapeutic influences in contemporary health and healthcare, most particularly in alleviating the (often severe) mental health difficulties with which chronic pain is almost universally associated.Based on unique empirical research with people who are living with chronic pain, this book is the first of its kind to demonstrate the value of literature and literary reading both as a discourse for understanding and ''finding'' pain and as an intervention in its treatment.

Sharing Sensory Stories and Conversations with People with Dementia - Joanna Grace

Sensory Stories contain just a few lines of text, and are brought to life through a selection of meaningful sensory experiences. They have been found to be highly effective in helping care for people with dementia, and can enable them to engage with their memories, life history and more, in a way that would otherwise not be possible. Despite these benefits, there is very little guidance on how to incorporate this approach in everyday care.This book looks at how sensory engagement can help someone with dementia feel safe and secure, minimise their anxieties, support their cognitive abilities, as well as other benefits. Full of practical advice, this book provides everything you need to put Sensory Stories into practice. Written at a level suitable for both family members and practitioners, this innovative book will be invaluable for anyone supporting a person with dementia.

The third, completely revised and updated, edition of the ultimate guide to energy – how we get it and how we spend it – for all patients with chronic fatigue syndrome, myalgic encephalitis and long COVID.Since the first edition of this book appeared, mainstream medicine has come up with nothing new that will help patients with chronic fatigue despite the recognition of long COVID – symptom-suppressing painkillers and antidepressants remain the mainstay. In the seven years since the second edition was published both new research and new clinical findings have meanwhile thrown increasing weight behind Dr Sarah Myhill’s approach that focuses on the body’s energy delivery systems and its energy use.In this third edition, Dr Myhill, now supported by expert patient Craig Robinson, has completely revised and updated her practical guidance on how to improve the former with diet, supplements and other lifestyle measures and how to address energy wastage through traditional approaches including methylene blue, DMSO and photodynamic therapy, and how to re-program the immune system with micro-immunotherapy.Following continued harassment by the UK’s General Medical Council, Dr Myhill has de-registered and through this third edition we are beneficiaries of the fruits of that change as her focus is evermore ...

The Art of Living: Reflections on Mindfulness and the Overexamined Life - Grant Snider

A humorous, uplifting look at mindfulness, from beloved illustrator Grant Snider“Find a quiet spot away from all distraction / Listen to your breath / Watch your thoughts float past you / Forget the obligations of today / Try not to consider your eventual decay / Let yourself drift away / Arise, connected with the Earth / Awakened to the Universe.”“Mindfulness” is a buzzword bordering on the cliché, with books filling the shelves of any indie bookstore you step into. Although clichés remind us of the familiar and the commonplace, they take on new meaning and greater significance when presented in a fresh new way. In The Art of Living, cartoonist Grant Snider, author of The Shape of Ideas and I Will Judge You by Your Bookshelf, has created an all-new collection of one- and two-page comics that map his inner thoughts, poetic observations, and frequent failures at living mindfully. With both humor and a touch of reality, The Art of Living centers on mindfulness, but also empathy, relaxation, gratitude, and awareness—evergreen subjects that are more important and relevant now than ever.

Living Toward Virtue - Paul Woodruff

In Living toward Virtue, Paul Woodruff shows how we can set about living ethically through self-questioning, which enables us to avoid moral injury by getting clear about what we are doing and why we are doing it. Self-questioning also helps us recognize the limits of our knowledge and so to avoid the danger of self-righteousness. Using real-life examples, Woodruff shows how we can nurture our souls, enjoy a virtuous happiness, and avoid moral injury as much as possible.This is in the spirit of Socrates, who urged everyone to commit to a lifelong activity of self-examination. By contrast, modern philosophers who follow Aristotle in ethics have mostly taught that living well depends on having virtues that are robust traits of character. Traits are not reliable in all situations, however, and they do not help us make hard decisions. Having a trait is no substitute for the activity we need to practice in order to live toward virtue.Written for anyone interested in answers to ancient questions about how to live ethically, as well as those engaged with current debates, Living Toward Virtue represents the culmination of decades of scholarship by one of its most distinguished figures.
