    A Love Song for the Sad Man in the White Coat , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 412min
    Simon had always expected love to feel different than this. Whether it was his Catholic upbringing or the poetry he'd read - Simon had thought that true love would be uplifting, fulfilling, that it would give a meaning to his loitering and add joy to his leisure. But not this kind of love. This love was a flesh-eating monster, sharp-clawed and evil-eyed, ravishing his mind with medieval cruelty.Dr Simon Mráz is a respected specialist and lecturer at the Charles University in Prague. He is a serious man, responsible. His students call him "The Cruel Doctor Frost" not because he's unkind, but because of his unwavering, ice-cold composure. As a psychiatrist, he values sanity. And sanity can be found in work, restraint, and self-control.Not many know of that one time in the past when The Cruel Doctor Frost lost his cool. His ill-advised, secret affair with a student left Simon deeply wounded. Since that day, every minute of Simon's life has been a struggle to remain sane, functioning. He's managed so far - as long as he is needed, as long as his work makes a difference, Simon can scrape together enough strength to get up in the morning and run off the nightmares. But when his friends begin drifting away, his beloved protégé becomes independent, and the man who bereaved Simon of his precious sanity might return.... Simon's mind and body stop responding to his impressive willpower. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Vance Bastian.

    My Secret World , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 60min
    This audio download discusses areas of our life that by and large we tend to keep quiet about. Our fetishes, our secret desires, private hobbies and likes etc, often that are out of the "norm" or general understanding of pedestrian thought.This can lead us to living a "double life", it can be exciting, it can be cruel, it can be unkind and it can be lonely.We discuss here the lengths to which people will go, whether it is "cross-dressing", "role playing", "sex change", "enacting battles with others", "steam train enthusiast" the list is endless.But what is paramount is that such areas are very real as is the negativity, ignorance, bias and judgmental nature of the "average" person as it not only threatens who they are themselves (which is not that much), but is an area that often they cannot comprehend.To enjoy life we need to nurture elements within us and providing they don't harm others be looked upon with compassion and love.Everyone will know someone who has a secret pleasure, even if they never ever find out. Narrow mindedness is no excuse in life, yet it is often just this aspect that causes needless upset and consternation especially by the ignorant and selfish.Interesting listening... Whatever you do there should be no shame nor embarassment, you live your life and do not need permission or acceptance from anyone else... ungekürzt. Language: English.

Drawing from the her extensive clinical experience - as well as personal experience as a mother of four - these 12 lectures provide a deeper understanding of your child's development and ways to address common stumbling blocks with compassion. In the first half, you'll focus on emotional intelligence and the pivotal role parents can play in helping children understand and cope with their feelings.
