Mindfulness y compasión en la relación de ayuda

  • Publisher: Nau Llibres

El libro que tiene entre sus manos nace de la formación desarrollada en la Universidad de Lleida en los cursos de Postgrado sobre mindfulness. El lector podrá encontrar las aportaciones teóricas que sustentan y demuestran el valor del mindfulness y la compasión desde diferentes perspectivas. Podrá además encontrar los fundamentos de las diferentes prácticas. Unas prácticas que son sencillas pero exigen constancia, apertura y una mirada renovada, capaz de redescubrir la verdadera dimensión de lo cotidiano, de uno mismo, de las personas que nos rodean, de la naturaleza, etc. Además, ofrecemos un recorrido por las posibles aplicaciones del mindfulness y la compasión en algunos ámbitos de la relación de ayuda: educación, trabajo social, psicología y ámbito sanitario. Este no es un libro de autoayuda ni un tratado sobre mindfulness, quiere ser una tarjeta de presentación del mindfulness para aquellas personas que no lo conocen en profundidad y que se preguntan por su utilidad personal o profesional.

These readers will find Positive Psychiatry to be immensely helpful in bringing positive mental health concepts and interventions into the clinical arena.

  • Publisher: Springer

This handbook presents the most comprehensive account of eudaimonic well-being to date. It brings together theoretical insights and empirical updates presented by leading scholars and young researchers. The handbook examines philosophical and historical approaches to the study of happy lives and good societies, and it critically looks at conceptual controversies related to eudaimonia and well-being. It identifies the elements of happiness in a variety of areas such as emotions, health, wisdom, self-determination, internal motivation, personal growth, genetics, work, leisure, heroism, and many more. It then places eudaimonic well-being in the larger context of society, addressing social elements. The most remarkable outcome of the book is arguably its large-scale relevance, reminding us that the more we know about the good way of living, the more we are in a position to build a society that can be supportive and offer opportunities for such a way of living for all of its citizens.
