Kurt Goldstein Kurt Goldstein (November 6, 1878 – September 19, 1965) was a German neurologist and psychiatrist who created a holistic theory of the organism. Educated in medicine, Goldstein studied under Carl Wernicke and Ludwig Edinger where he focused on neurology and psychiatry.[1] His clinical work inspired the establishment of The Institute for Research into the Consequences of Brain Injuries. As a Jew, Goldstein was forced to leave Germany when Hitler came to power.[2] After being displaced, Goldstein wrote The Organism (1934). Background[edit] Early life[edit] Goldstein was born into an agnostic Jewish family of nine children. Academic career[edit] After a short period working at the business, Goldstein's father acquiesced and allowed him to enroll at Breslau University. In 1926 Fritz Perls became Goldstein's assistant for a year. Professional career[edit] Between 1906 and 1914, Goldstein worked in a psychiatric clinic in Königsberg.

Epigenetics One example of an epigenetic change in eukaryotic biology is the process of cellular differentiation. During morphogenesis, totipotent stem cells become the various pluripotent cell lines of the embryo, which in turn become fully differentiated cells. In other words, as a single fertilized egg cell – the zygote – continues to divide, the resulting daughter cells change into all the different cell types in an organism, including neurons, muscle cells, epithelium, endothelium of blood vessels, etc., by activating some genes while inhibiting the expression of others.[5] Historical usage of "epigenetics"[edit] The term "epigenetics" has also been used in developmental psychology to describe psychological development as the result of an ongoing, bi-directional interchange between heredity and the environment.[13] Interactivist ideas of development have been discussed in various forms and under various names throughout the 19th and 20th centuries. Contemporary usage of "epigenetics"[edit]
Shadow Work: 5 Ways to Use Carl Jung's Technique to Heal - Learning Mind Shadow work is recognizing and understanding the dark side of our personality. It was coined by Carl Jung and is essential to leading a fulfilling life. Many years ago, a couple I knew well and loved dearly had a baby. It goes without saying that I was really happy for them. I went to see them and they told me the name they’d chosen for their child. They had taken the first three letters of both of their first names to make the new name for their baby. They said that they had combined their love to make a baby, so when it came to naming her, they felt they should combine their names too. Carl Jung and Shadow Work We all think that we know ourselves pretty well. However, what if I told you there are parts of your personality that you despise so much so you hide them away? “How can I be substantial if I do not cast a shadow? Carl Jung is responsible for identifying the ‘shadow’ in our personality. What Is Shadow Work? In order to live a balanced life, we have to acknowledge the shadow. 1.
Humanist Manifesto III Humanism is a progressive philosophy of life that, without supernaturalism, affirms our ability and responsibility to lead ethical lives of personal fulfillment that aspire to the greater good of humanity. The lifestance of Humanism—guided by reason, inspired by compassion, and informed by experience—encourages us to live life well and fully. It evolved through the ages and continues to develop through the efforts of thoughtful people who recognize that values and ideals, however carefully wrought, are subject to change as our knowledge and understandings advance. This document is part of an ongoing effort to manifest in clear and positive terms the conceptual boundaries of Humanism, not what we must believe but a consensus of what we do believe. Knowledge of the world is derived by observation, experimentation, and rational analysis. Humans are an integral part of nature, the result of unguided evolutionary change. Humans are social by nature and find meaning in relationships.
Self-control In behavior analysis[edit] Another view is that self-control represents the locus of two conflicting contingencies of reinforcement, which then make a controlling response reinforcing when it causes changes in the controlled response.[2][3] Research[edit] Counteractive[edit] Desire is an affectively charged motivation toward a certain object, person, or activity that is associated with pleasure or relief from displeasure.[4] Desires vary in strength and duration. A desire becomes a temptation, entering the area of self-control, if the behavior resulting from the desire conflicts with an individual’s values or other self-regulatory goals.[5][6] A limitation to research on desire is the issue of individuals desiring different things. Desires that conflict with overarching goals or values are known as temptations.[6][8] Self-control dilemmas occur when long-term goals and values clash with short-term temptations.

Karen Horney - Vikipedi Karen Horney (16 Eylül 1885, Hamburg - 4 Aralık 1952, New York), Alman kökenli Amerikalı psikanalist. Neo-Freud’yen bir ekolün “ego psikolojisinin” temsilcisi olmuştur (Okuma günlükleri: çağımızın nevrotik kişiliği, 2011).[1] Freud'dan farklı olarak kişiliğin ve nevrozun oluşumunda biyolojinin ve dürtüsel güçlerin etkilerinden çok kültürel etmenler üzerinde durur. Yaşamı[değiştir | kaynağı değiştir] Babası, dindar ve katı mizaçlı erkeklerin kadınlara göre üstün olduğunu düşünen Norveçli bir gemi kaptanı idi. Mesleği sebebiyle karşılaştığı farklı kültürleri Karen’a anlatırdı ve bunun Karen üzerinde ileride büyük etkisi olacaktı. İnsan ve nevroz[değiştir | kaynağı değiştir] Temel anksiyete çocukluk çağında ebeveyn-çocuk ilikiksinden kaynaklanır (Schultz, 2007, böl. 14).[2] Horney’e göre bir çocuğun çevresindeki insanların, çocuğu sevemeyecek, onun da kendi başına bir birey olamayacağını kabulm edemeyecek kadar kendi nevrozlarına kapıldıkları gerçeğiyle karşılaşırız. 1.Üretkensizlik
Concision Description[edit] Concision may involve removing redundant or unnecessary phrases or replacing them with shorter ones. It is described in The Elements of Style by Strunk and White as follows:[1] Vigorous writing is concise. Concision has also been described as "eliminat[ing] words that take up space without saying much An example sentence, with explanation:[2] "It is a fact that most arguments must try to convince readers, that is the audience, that the arguments are true." Example paragraph[edit] The following example is taken from:[3] The author of the poem illustrated various differences between the characters. This can be replaced with: The romantic poem showed that its characters were devious. In the second quote, the same information is communicated in less than half the length.

Your Life Is Not Limited To One Path By Joe Martino Source: Collective Evolution It is no secret that life can sometimes feel like a limited paved road laid out before us that we feel the need to stick to. What is happening is we are observing and creating an idea of how life should be; the best way to play the game. How many times have we heard “That’s not the best decision” or “That’s not the best decision for the whole family.” We Get Trapped in Belief Systems In either case, both scenarios have one thing in common, a belief system of what the “best” choice or decision is. Let’s take the example of a child coming out of high school today. 9 times out of 10, that child will be told, and may even believe, that the “best” decision they can make for their life is to continue their education at university or college. Next, they would be told to get a job so they can buy a house, as owning and buying a house is a smart decision. The Deep Truth Here is the absolute truth, ready? Look at our world.

Rubicon model From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In psychological theories of motivation, the Rubicon model, more completely the Rubicon model of action phases, makes a distinction between motivational and volitional processes. The Rubicon model "defines clear boundaries between motivational and action phases." The name "Rubicon model" derives from the tale of Caesar's crossing the Rubicon River, a point of no return, thereby revealing his intentions. "Once subjects move from planning and goal-setting to the implementation of plans, they cross a metaphorical Rubicon. — Lyn Corno, The best laid plans, p. 15 (quoted by Rauber) The Rubicon model addresses four questions, as identified by Achtziger and Gollwitzer:[3] How do people select their goals? The study of these issues is undertaken by both the fields of cognitive neuroscience and social psychology. Background[edit] See also[edit] References[edit]
