Description: What Doesn't Kill Us by Stephen Joseph Estimated delivery 4-14 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Anywhere from 30 to 90 per cent of people confronted by tragedy, horror and adversity emerge as wiser, more mature and more fulfilled people, sometimes despite great sadness. Relationships become stronger. Perspectives on life change. Inner strengths are found. In fact many psychologists, psychiatrists and counsellors are no longer even viewing post-traumatic stress disorder as illness to be treated like any other illness. Rather, they believe, the emotional experiences of people recovering from adversity are the minds way of dealing with profound existential issues.In What Doesnt Kill Us, Stephen Joseph argues that such people have much to teach the rest of us. In learning how survivors of major disasters can be transformed by their experience, he has discovered that the lessons learned from them are valuable to us all. Drawing on his own unique research, the wisdom of ancient philosophers, the insights of evolutionary biologists and the optimism of positive psychologists, he presents the first robust framework for understanding adversity and reveals how all of us can navigate change - traumatic or otherwise - to find new meaning, purpose and direction in life. Publisher Description Research has shown than anywhere from 30 to 90 per cent of people confronted by tragedy, horror and adversity emerge as wiser, more mature and more fulfilled people, sometimes despite great sadness. Relationships become stronger. Perspectives on life change. Inner strengths are found.For the past twenty years, Stephen Joseph has worked with survivors of trauma and sufferers of posttraumatic stress. In this groundbreaking book, he boldly challenges the notion that trauma and its aftermath devastate and destroy the lives. His studies have shown that a wide range of traumatic events - from illness, separation, assault and bereavement to accidents, natural disasters and terrorism - can act as catalysts for positive change, strengthening relationships, changing ones perspective and revealing inner strengths.In WHAT DOESNT KILL US, Stephen Joseph shares the six steps we can all use to manage our emotions and navigate adversity to find new meaning, purpose and direction in our lives.
