Loving Healing Press proudly announces the first ever self-help book based on Metapsychology techniques. Author Marian Volkman has contributed to the TIR and Metapsychology curriculum for over 15 years. Metapsychology, as developed by Frank A. Gerbode, MD, is a subject rich in philosophy and practical application. Much of Applied Metapsychology makes use of one-on-one session work to achieve the individual's personal goals -- from relieving past pain to living more fully to expanding consciousness.

Life Skills highlights key factors from the subject and illuminates the ways that these factors can be used on a daily basis for improved quality of life, as an individual, in relationships, and in the wider world.

  • Learn handy and usually quite fast techniques to assist another person after a shock, injury or other distress.
  • Learn simple methods for expanding your awareness on a daily basis.
  • Gain a deeper understanding of what a relationship is, and how to strengthen and nurture it.
  • Learn the components of successful communication, what causes communication to break down, and how to repair breakdowns.
  • Gain the ability to more accurately predict certain patterns of human behavior, and to be more effective in dealing with the negative ones.
  • Learn an effective tool for making important life decisions.
  • Explore human potential.

    "Life Skills is replete with examples, exercises, episodes from the author's life, and tips - this is a must for facilitators, clients, and anyone who seeks heightened emotional welfare -- or merely to recover from a trauma." -- Sam Vaknin, PhD (April, 2005)

    		Coping With Physical Loss and Disability is
    A new vision for those who have lost so much...

    This workbook provides more than 50 questions and exercises designed to empower those with physical loss and disability to better understand and accept their ongoing processes of loss and recovery. The exercises in Coping with Physical Loss and Disability were distilled from ten years of clinical social work experience with clients suffering from quadriplegia, paraplegia, amputation(s), cancer, severe burns, HIV/AIDs, hepatitis, lupus, sensory loss, and neuro-muscular disorders. This technique applies to any loss arising from accidents, injury, surgery, or disease.

    “This workbook is a tremendous resource that is practical and easy to use. The author shows his connection with this material in a way from which we can all benefit.”
    —Geneva Reynaga-Abiko, Psy.D., University of Illinois, Counseling Center
