    Do you find that the way your partner treated you in the beginning of the relationship is unrecognizable from the way your partner treats you now? Are you persistently made to feel guilty for voicing your concerns in the relationship?For the malignant narcissist, visions of their own grandeur mixed with an over-blown sense of entitlement fueled by a shocking lack of empathy, lead to a truly twisted vision of themselves, other people, relationships, and the way the world works. As a result, their partners, siblings, children, even friends and colleagues, often experience at least some form of narcissistic abuse, which is recognized as a type of domestic violence that can lead to deep psychological issues that can be passed from one generation to the next.In this book, we are going to look at narcissistic abuse from a variety of viewpoints, beginning with the basics of recognizing narcissism in others and ourselves by examining the attitudes and behaviors that mark the narcissist in general and differentiating between benign and malignant narcissism. We will then look at how narcissists work, where they come from, how they see the world and some of their most common tactics including gaslighting and how they use others to do their bidding. From there, we will explore narcissistic abuse syndrome and trauma bonding, how it develops, what the victim experiences, and the warning signs that indicate that you might be suffering from it.After examining these base principles, we will get more into the dynamics of narcissism in various relationships. This begins with narcissism in family relationships and will cover childrearing with an eye toward recognizing how parents often turn their child into a narcissist, how the culture supports this kind of parenting, and how to keep it from happening. We will then see how we can recognize narcissism early on in childhood, including bullying behavior, and steps that can ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: KC Wayman.

    The internment of Japanese Americans in the wake of the attack on Pearl Harbor is second only to slavery in terms of America’s most tragic and regrettable chapters in history. While the forced relocation and internment of Japanese Americans living on the West Coast during the Second World War is widely recognized - they have even received apologies and compensation from the US government - what is not as well-known is that between 1941 and 1948, approximately 10,000 Americans of German descent were also forcibly interned at camps scattered across the United States. Some refugees who had fled from Germany, in an attempt to escape Nazi persecution, were rounded up, interned, and later used in a prisoner exchange program between the United States and German governments. The American government also went to great lengths to secure Germans living across Latin America, who they believed posed a tangible threat, should they cross America’s southern border.In spite of a preponderance of evidence affirming the occurrence of these events, the United States government persistently denied it for decades. The public was largely unaware that these atrocities had occurred, and hardly a single account of history was found to mention them. Winkler, for instance, fallaciously asserted that “German-Americans, treated poorly by their fellow Americans during World War I, were now more fully assimilated into American life and were largely left alone”.  With the Freedom of Information Act (1967) opening up government archives regarding these events, new facts emerged pertaining to German-American internment during World War II. More recently, personal testimonies by survivors of internment camps have led historians into the open archives in an effort to corroborate their stories. But even after these events have been firmly established, they continue to be overlooked both in popular discourse and by historians of the era. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Colin Fluxman.

    Do you want to overcome anxiety, depression, and panic attacks? Do you want to improve your positive thinking and relieve stress? If so, then keep reading...Generally speaking, a person’s mental abilities are more prone to identify and react to threats, instead of opportunities. Negative thoughts move faster and more persistently inside the brain than positive thoughts do. Our brains are usually wired toward fight or flight and ways we could troubleshoot and handle most of these negative experiences, which are an essential part of an individual’s daily life.Even though many of the events we think about usually do not occur and are thus hypothetical, we still obsess over them, imagining the worst possible outcomes. Worries, anxiety, and mental poison can lead to increased stress and frustration.When you are experiencing anxiety, you might find that you are unable to attain a calm state of mind, and you feel as if you are continuously on the alert. This makes a difference to you mentally, and it might result in reduced productivity, disabled mental function, fractured relationships, as well as physical manifestation in the form of illnesses and disease.With pessimism, you could possibly feel as though you are caught in a feedback loop of destruction, where it doesn't matter what you are trying to tell yourself - you still keep having negative thoughts. These thoughts can compromise your current well-being.With these effects of our thoughts, it may be obvious why we spend our time trying to figure out how to realize the strength of our own minds. We often find ourselves daydreaming in order to escape from our destructive thoughts or reality. Understanding daydreaming can help you comprehend the strength of your unconscious mind.When you daydream, you allow your opinions to combine with your imagination and function effectively together. You may find that the more you allow your emotions to control your thinking, the m ungekürzt.

    When we wrote on the life of St. Teresa in our book Saints and other Powerful Women in the Church, little did we think that we would, some day, be using her visions of heaven, hell, and purgatory to affirm these important truths of our Catholic faith.As we have said so many times, the lives of the saints are not about old bones, long gone and forgotten, but alive in the lives they led, in their living examples of holiness and virtue for us to follow, in the path they have paved by the teachings they have left behind, as alive in a smaller degree as the word of God found in holy Scripture.As we delved into the many books on heaven, hell, and purgatory and combed holy Scripture trying to discern what the Lord wanted in this book, we felt a haunting urgency to forge on, despite many obstacles placed in our way, the kind of attacks mentioned by St. Teresa in her book Vida (Life), often good things or good people with good intentions.But as we discover, day after day, in our walk with the Lord and his Mother, when the Lord wants something done, he will do anything and everything to have it come to pass, not excluding using our guardian angels to persistently plant his thoughts and will in our minds. And so here we are, and we are, once again, writing about one of our most loved and precious saints and doctors of the Church.At the time of writing this book, there are only two women doctors of the Church - St. Teresa of Avila and St. Catherine of Siena (both of whom Bob and Penny have written about in their book Saints and Other Powerful Women in the Church). ungekürzt.

    This account of the sinking of the RMS Titanic was written by Lawrence Beesley and was first published in 1912. The interesting element is that Lawrence Beesley was a survivor of the Titanic disaster and provides a realistic account of some of the events leading to and following the sinking of the Titanic. The RMS Titanic was an Olympic class passenger liner that became infamous for its collision with an iceberg and dramatic sinking in 1912. The second of a trio of superliners, she and her sisters, Olympic and Britannic, were designed to provide a three-ship weekly express service and dominate the transatlantic travel business for the White Star Line.Built at the Harland and Wolff shipyard in Belfast, Ireland, Titanic was the largest passenger steamship in the world at the time of her sinking. During Titanic's maiden voyage (from Southampton, England; to Cherbourg, France; Queenstown (Cobh), Ireland; then New York), she struck an iceberg at 11:40 PM (ship's time) on Sunday evening April 14, 1912, broke into two pieces, and sank two hours and forty minutes later at 2:20 AM Monday morning.According to the US Senate investigation, 1,523 people perished in the accident, ranking it as one of the worst peacetime maritime disasters in history and by far the most famous. Titanic's design used some of the most advanced technology available at the time and the ship was popularly believed to be "unsinkable". It was a great shock that, despite the advanced technology and experienced crew, Titanic sank with a great loss of life. The media frenzy about Titanic's famous victims, the legends about what happened on board the ship, the resulting changes to maritime law, and the discovery of the wreck in 1985 by a team led by Robert Ballard and Jean-Louis Michel have made Titanic persistently famous in the years since.This account by a survivor of the Titanic disaster was first published in 1912.

    If your child has recently been diagnosed with oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), or if you believe your child may have ODD, then this audiobook is for you! New and improved version released July 2015!  Oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) is a disorder where a child shows a constant display of negativity, defiance, disobedience, and downright violence toward their parents, teachers, or any other authority figure. When a child has ODD, he or she will often be persistently stubborn; resisting any request or directive made by an adult. He or she will be unwilling to compromise or negotiate with adults or even with their peers. These children will do things just to test your patience and limits and will always refuse to accept they have done something wrong, even when they have.  The important thing to understand is these children are not intentionally devilish. They believe in their heart the requests you make of them are unjust and unreasonable. Therefore, saying "No" is the best thing to do from their perspective. Often, this kind of behavior will cause the child to suffer socially, academically, and, most importantly, emotionally.  Luckily, this disorder is treatable, and with proper guidance, a parent can achieve great progress with his or her child. If you are a parent who has a child with ODD, then this audiobook will show you some ways you can cope with and eventually treat your child so you can have a peaceful and cooperative home once again.  Here is a preview of what you'll learn: Beginning with what you can control  Managing your anger  Getting professional help Five traits of a strong parent  How to face challenges  Don't take everything to heart  Five key skills to adopt and develop  Being the parent your child needs  Much, much more! ungekürzt.

    Madeleine Winger's thoughts consume her. This college co-ed's mental object of affection is a gorgeous dark-haired, green-eyed musician. She can't stop her mind from filling with idealistic perceptions and fantastical scenarios starring him. Every time she sees him at church or when he comes into the music store where she works, Maddy is sure she will need a defibrillator to restart her heart. She doesn't even know his name, nor has she ever spoken to him, but she can't stop her heart and mind from their unending crush on this guy, for over a year now. Maddy proclaims herself a "lust-o-holic". Maddy knows she must learn the real way to have a relationship with a guy; not the gotta-jump-into-bed-with-him-so-he'll-like-me, kind of way. Maddy knows all too well from her past that this tactic never works. Besides, Peter is different from any other guy she has dated in the past. Peter is the guitar player in a local up-and-coming garage band, who has made a fresh recommitment to his faith. Maddy would be the first woman he has dated in a year. It's so different this time for him - dating God's way. It is a tale of pure sweetness and beauty as two people learn to love each other under the hand of the Almighty. Maddy must also cope with her promiscuous dorm roommate, as well as her plastic-surgery-obsessed bleached-blonde mother, who is persistently critical of Maddy's dyed-black hair and Gothic style. Can Peter and Maddy wrestle with their desires and keep their thoughts in check, and their hands off of each other? Their tale of relationship trials and triumphs will make you laugh out loud, and you'll probably cry, too, so keep a tissue or two handy. The Garden Key, the prelude novel to Mind Over Madeleine, is a New Adult genre tale of lust, redemption, and really good cheeseburgers that will move you as it illustrates the urgent need for faith in our lives, especially when it comes to love relationships. ungekürzt.

    In this powerful and culminating work about a group of inner-city children he has known for many years, Jonathan Kozol returns to the scene of his prize-winning books Rachel and Her Children and Amazing Grace, and to the children he has vividly portrayed, to share with us their fascinating journeys and unexpected victories as they grow into adulthood. For nearly 50 years Jonathan has pricked the conscience of his readers by laying bare the savage inequalities inflicted upon children for no reason but the accident of being born to poverty within a wealthy nation. A winner of the National Book Award, the Robert F. Kennedy Book Award, and countless other honors, he has persistently crossed the lines of class and race, first as a teacher, then as the author of tender and heart-breaking books about the children he has called "the outcasts of our nation’s ingenuity." But Jonathan is not a distant and detached reporter. His own life has been radically transformed by the children who have trusted and befriended him. Never has this intimate acquaintance with his subjects been more apparent, or more stirring, than in Fire in the Ashes, as Jonathan tells the stories of young men and women who have come of age in one of the most destitute communities of the United States. Some of them never do recover from the battering they undergo in their early years, but many more battle back with fierce and, often, jubilant determination to overcome the formidable obstacles they face. As we watch these glorious children grow into the fullness of a healthy and contributive maturity, they ignite a flame of hope, not only for themselves, but for our society. The urgent issues that confront our urban schools - a devastating race-gap, a pathological regime of obsessive testing and drilling students for exams instead of giving them the rich curriculum that excites a love of learning - are interwoven through these stories. Why certain children rise ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Keythe Farley. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/rand/003243/bk_rand_003243_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.
