Of all the branches of astrology, it is probably "synastry" the technique of comparing the birth charts of two or more persons that most fascinates those who practice astrology today. This is the first book to deal thoroughly with the basic purpose and techniques of chart comparison in clear, contemporary terms. Going beyond the simplistic popular methods which compare only sun signs, Michael Meyer's humanistic approach to synastry offers a responsible tool for understanding the mutually constructive aspects of any relationship. The Astrology of Relationship introduces the concept of "relationship" with a brief overview of its place in traditional astrological practice and its relation to certain Eastern Philosophical concepts. Explaining the significance of planets, houses and signs in determining personal compatibility, Meyer offers a step-by-step technique for chart comparison, including full instructions for casting and interpreting zodiacal contact, house contact, and composite charts. To demonstrate the methods described, the book concludes with synastric analyses of three important relationships in history: Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung; George Sand and Frederic Chopin; and founders of the Theosophical Society, Madame Blavatsky and Henry Olcott. Michael R. Meyer is the author of A Handbook for the Humanistic Astrologer and The Astrology of Change: Horary Astrology and its Humanistic Applications.

In this comprehensive, new work the author applies a unified psychological point of view to the African American situation. The discussion focuses on how the African American community has strived for competence in the face of societal hostility. This approach to the psychological situation of African Americans looks at people as proactive, potentially competent beings who are able to make a difference in the situations that confront them. From his opening introduction to the humanistic psychological view and his discussions of self-concept, cognition and school performance, and speech and language processes in children, to his discussions of assertion and identity development in young adults and the issues related to mental health among Blacks, Jenkins develops a one-of-its-kind look at the aspects of traditional psychology that can make a contribution to the understanding of the Black experience in America.

The psychotherapy journey is in some ways similar to the seventeenth century ventures of those who pulled loose from their European homes to risk the voyage across the Atlantic in search of new lives in America. They did not have any sure knowledge of how much they were leaving or what they would find. Many found the old ways of being intolerable,, and all hoped the new world would give them something better.

This text builds on the basic concepts and skills that the nursing assistant has already mastered. Recognizing that the students using this text have already completed their basic nursing assisting training and may have already been working in the profession, this text does not repeat information that is part of the basic nursing assistant training.

The Third Edition of Lippincott Williams & Wilkins' flagship and cornerstone basic textbook of nursing assisting. This engaging, ancillary-rich text is intended as the basic training resource for the Nursing Assistant course which generally encompasses 120 hours of training.   Three key beliefs form the basis for the textbook: 1.

The definitive overview of this transformative breathwork.In this long awaited book, Stanislav Grof and Christina Grof describe their groundbreaking new form of self-exploration and psychotherapy: Holotropic Breathwork. Holotropic means ‘moving toward wholeness,’ from the Greek holos ( whole) and trepein (moving in the direction of). The breathwork utilizes the remarkable healing and transformative potential of non-ordinary states of consciousness. These states engender a rich array of experiences with unique healing potential―reliving childhood memories, infancy, birth and prenatal life, and elements from the historical and archetypal realms of the collective unconscious. Induced by very simple means―a combination of accelerated breathing, evocative music, and bodywork in a safe and supportive setting, Holotropic Breathwork integrates the insights from modern consciousness research, depth psychology, transpersonal psychology, anthropology, Eastern spiritual practices, and mystical traditions. The Grofs’ work with holotropic states of consciousness has introduced revolutionary changes to psychiatry, psychology, and psychotherapy. Written in a clear, easily understandable style, this indispensable book summarizes their remarkable insights.
