Abstract

"Coping with cancer is hard. It is an emotional ordeal as well as a physical one, with known and somewhat predictable psychological responses. And yet, patients often feel isolated and alone when dealing with the stress, anxiety, depression, and existential crises so typical with a cancer diagnosis. The Big Ordeal, written in collaboration with a psychologist and two oncologists, tackles the emotional side of the experience head-on, to help newly diagnosed patients and their loved ones anticipate, understand, and deal with the psychological turmoil ahead. Based on interviews with scores of patients and experts across a variety of fields, combining patient stories with medical insights and advice from those who have been there, and structured around the typical phases of the process, this book is an accessible resource for anyone who receive a cancer diagnosis" --Back cover

Abstract

"Cain shows how a bittersweet state of mind is the quiet force that helps us transcend our personal and collective pain. If we don't acknowledge our own sorrows and longings, she says, we can end up inflicting them on others via abuse, domination, or neglect. But if we realize that all humans know--or will know--loss and suffering, we can turn toward each other. And we can learn to transform our own pain into creativity, transcendence, and connection. At a time of profound discord and personal anxiety, Bittersweet brings us together in deep and unexpected ways"-- Publisher's description

Abstract

In his groundbreaking new book, Dr. Kirk Austin explores seven elements that contribute to human buoyancy. Using the acronym BREATHE, the book explores the concepts of Bravery, Resilience, Endurance, Acceptance, Tenacity, Hope, and Excellence.

Written for parents, adult-helpers, and educators, Buoyancy: Building Resilient Kids explores how to help kids build the skills related to human flourishing. The book examines seven stories of real people who exemplified an element of BREATHE. It goes further in providing examples and exercises to build the skills necessary to stay buoyant. It is a helpful and practical addition to any social and emotional learning curriculum." --Back cover
