Beating the Benzo Blues

Beating the Benzo Blues

Dale L Carruth

Dale Carruth
2021
pokkari
This book is an easy to follow, three-step guide, to help you safely detox off benzodiazepines with minimal stress and disruption to your daily life. It will first will help you identify whether benzodiazepine addiction is present and then how to slowly detox off them. It is aimed at both individuals and health practitioners. Benzodiazepines were introduced in the 50s, and falsely marketed as virtually non-addictive drugs for psychic tension. Time has proven otherwise and these drugs, are now known to be highly addictive and responsible for perhaps, one of the worst medical blunders in history. Many people taking benzos, usually prescribed for sleep or anxiety, may be unaware they're even addicted and consequently might attribute their withdrawal symptoms to something else entirely. Dale Carruth is an addiction counsellor and educator. This book is a result of many years of clinical practise, research and observation in both private practise and working for Tranx Services, New Zealand, a counselling and detoxification service, dedicated to prescription medication addiction.

MDMA, PSILOCYBIN, AYAHUASCA: what compelled twenty-two middle-class Australian people to share their unique and riveting stories about their participation in forty illegal psychedelic therapy sessions? How did this therapy transform them? How does one even find a an underground therapist?Transformations; is a must-read for anyone suffering from trauma or other psychological difficulties and is contemplating a psychedelic solution. It's also a rare font of knowledge for future psychedelic therapists, providing tried-and-tested treatment protocols and proceedures. Psychedelic research has made a meteoric comeback and projects testing the potential for psychedelics to treat mental illness are taking place worldwide. Dale Carruth has emerged from the underground to reveal research she's been quietly conducting for years. She flew to Australia in 2017 to take part in illegal psychedelic therapy in the hope of healing her debilitating PTSD symptoms. After profound and effective healing, Carruth, a qualified therapist, felt obliged to help others do the same. 'I have come to know and appreciate Dale as a respectful, careful, and highly ethical therapist. Her practical experience in this not-yet-well-known field of work, especially trauma work with psychoactive substances, is impressive and testifies to a great knowledge of this field. Her previous clinical experience, especially with traumatized people, and the intensive working through of her own biography allows her to excellently grasp and accompany the essence of people with post-traumatic stress disorder. Her expertise in the field of psychoactive substances is impressively vast. Her book is carefully researched, clearly written and easy to understand.' ____Dr Friederike Meckel Fischer, author of Therapy with Substance"I believe this book can help guide therapists to carry out this most important work in helping to heal the millions who suffer daily from the crippling effects of trauma. This unique contribution can also help people seeking psychedelic therapy to understand what they are in for and help them to prepare for and understand the processes involved in going through these most profound and effective treatments. These records are definately more relevant to regular people than the much-vaunted scientific studies into these compounds, as any reader should be able to see clearly how these compounds work, how people experience them, and what results they themselves could actually get from them." ___ Julian Palmer, author of Articulations: On the Utilisation and Meaning of Psychedelics

Yenohan's Legacy

Yenohan's Legacy

Dale Lorna Jacobsen

Dale Lorna Jacobsen
2020
pokkari
Fran McMillan, a thirty-something chisel-wielding woman, is camped at Mount Clear in Namadgi National Park, escaping the heat of a Queensland summer, when she encounters Kelvin, one of a group of men from Canberra restoring a high-country hut. She inveigles her way into the work party - a weekend that changes her life.As Fran works on the hut, she hears the fragmented story of the pioneering Thompson family who came to live in the harsh Snow Belt in 1909, and of Yenohan, an Aboriginal girl who befriended their daughter, Eleanor. Love also pays Fran a brief visit during the weekend when she follows Kelvin into the wilderness. Fran returns to Queensland and resumes furniture making until a disaster calls her back south: it is January 2003, and wildfires are racing through the Alps, ravaging the national park, destroying lovingly-restored huts in their path and altering the nature of the Australian High Country forever.In Queensland, Fran watches television reports in disbelief as a firestorm engulfs the outer suburbs of Canberra, consuming 500 homes and four people. For three days, she tries to contact Kelvin. On the fourth she throws her backpack into her car and drives south to Canberra to face the truth - and Kelvin's wife and family. Whilst in Canberra Fran visits Tilly Anderson (a descendant of the Thompson family) and the final pieces of the puzzle surrounding the relationship between the family and Yenohan fall into place.

Practical Theology for Black Churches

Practical Theology for Black Churches

Dale P. Andrews

Westminster/John Knox Press,U.S.
2002
nidottu
The rift between black theology, with its social and political concerns, and black churches, with their emphases on pastoral care and piety, has been growing. Here, Dale Andrews offers a way to bridge this gap by redefining the paradigm of church as "refuge" in terms of a faith identity that brings together a concern for liberation with a pastoral focus on spirituality. This faith identity emerges from dominant biblical themes that shape preaching and pastoral care.Andrews' insightful analysis of the gulf between black churches and black theology reveals the invasive influence of individualism in black religious life as well as the shared values for social change and care of the soul. Notably, it is this influence of individualism that has disrupted communal solidarity and brought about the neglect of liberation ethics within black church life. This practical theology will contribute greatly towards renewing the pastoral and prophetic ministry of black religious life.

Sex and the Single Savior

Sex and the Single Savior

Dale B. Martin

Westminster/John Knox Press,U.S.
2006
nidottu
Probing into numerous questions about gender and sexuality, Dale Martin delves into the biblical texts anew and unearths surprising findings. Avoiding preconceptions about ancient sexuality, he explores the ethics of desire and marriage and pays careful attention to the original meanings of words, especially those used as evidence of Paul's opposition to homosexuality. For example, after a remarkably faithful reading of the scriptural texts, Martin concludes that our contemporary obsession with marriage--and the whole search for the "right" sexual relationships--is antithetical to the message of the gospel. In all of these essays, however, Martin argues for engaging Scripture in a way that goes beyond the standard historical-critical questions and the assumptions of textual agency in order to find a faith that has no foundations other than Jesus Christ.

Pedagogy of the Bible

Pedagogy of the Bible

Dale B. Martin

Westminster/John Knox Press,U.S.
2008
nidottu
For generations, most seminary teaching of the Bible has focused on the historical-critical method. While this method has been the standard in almost every seminary curriculum, the effects of this approach to Scripture have hardly been examined. From examining the biblical studies courses at ten different seminaries and divinity schools, Dale Martin learned what faculties were doing and what students were hearing. This book presents his discoveries, offering the best-ever inside look at the teaching of the Bible for ministry.Going beyond mere description, Martin argues for a new emphasis on interpreting Scripture within the context of church history and theology. Such a reading would be more theological, more integrated into the whole theological curriculum, and more theoretical (as it would focus on what's at stake in interpretation); however, Martin surprisingly argues, it would be more practical at the same time.

Inventing Superstition

Inventing Superstition

Dale B. Martin

Harvard University Press
2007
nidottu
The Roman author Pliny the Younger characterizes Christianity as “contagious superstition”; two centuries later the Christian writer Eusebius vigorously denounces Greek and Roman religions as vain and impotent “superstitions.” The term of abuse is the same, yet the two writers suggest entirely different things by “superstition.”Dale Martin provides the first detailed genealogy of the idea of superstition, its history over eight centuries, from classical Greece to the Christianized Roman Empire of the fourth century C.E. With illuminating reference to the writings of philosophers, historians, and medical teachers he demonstrates that the concept of superstition was invented by Greek intellectuals to condemn popular religious practices and beliefs, especially the belief that gods or other superhuman beings would harm people or cause disease. Tracing the social, political, and cultural influences that informed classical thinking about piety and superstition, nature and the divine, Inventing Superstition exposes the manipulation of the label of superstition in arguments between Greek and Roman intellectuals on the one hand and Christians on the other, and the purposeful alteration of the idea by Neoplatonic philosophers and Christian apologists in late antiquity.Inventing Superstition weaves a powerfully coherent argument that will transform our understanding of religion in Greek and Roman culture and the wider ancient Mediterranean world.

Friendship, Love, and Trust in Renaissance Florence

Friendship, Love, and Trust in Renaissance Florence

Dale Kent

Harvard University Press
2009
sidottu
The question of whether true friendship could exist in an era of patronage occupied Renaissance Florentines as it had the ancient Greeks and Romans whose culture they admired and emulated. Rather than attempting to measure Renaissance friendship against a universal ideal defined by essentially modern notions of disinterestedness, intimacy, and sincerity, in this book Dale Kent explores the meaning of love and friendship as they were represented in the fifteenth century, particularly the relationship between heavenly and human friendship.She documents the elements of shared experience in friendships between Florentines of various occupations and ranks, observing how these were shaped and played out in the physical spaces of the city: the streets, street corners, outdoor benches and loggias, family palaces, churches, confraternal meeting places, workshops of artisans and artists, taverns, dinner tables, and the baptismal font.Finally, Kent examines the betrayal of trust, focusing on friends at moments of crisis or trial in which friendships were tested, and failed or endured. The exile of Cosimo de’ Medici in 1433 and his recall in 1434, the attempt in 1466 of the Medici family’s closest friends to take over their patronage network, and the Pazzi conspiracy to assassinate Lorenzo and Giuliano de’ Medici in 1478 expose the complexity and ambivalence of Florentine friendship, a combination of patronage with mutual intellectual passion and love—erotic, platonic, and Christian—sublimely expressed in the poetry and art of Michelangelo.

Body and Brain

Body and Brain

Dale Purves

Harvard University Press
1990
nidottu
The major goal of developmental neurobiology is to understand how the nervous system is put together. A central theme that has emerged from research in this field over the last several decades is the crucial role of trophic interactions in neural assembly, and indeed throughout an animal's life. Trophic—which means nutritive—refers to long-term interdependencies between nerve cells and the cells they innervate.The theory of trophic effects presented in this book offers an explanation of how the vertebrate nervous system is related to—and regulated by—the body it serves. The theory rationalizes the nervous system's accommodation, throughout life, to the changing size and form of the body it tenants, indicating the way connections between nerve cells change in response to stimuli as diverse as growth, injury, experience, and natural selection.Dale Purves, a leading neurobiologist best known for his work on the formation and maintenance of synaptic connections, presents this theory within the historical setting of earlier ideas about neural organization—from Weiss's theory of functional reorganization to the chemoaffinity theory championed by Sperry. In addition to illuminating eighty years of work on trophic interactions, this book asks its own compelling questions: Are trophic interactions characteristic of all animals or only of those with complex nervous systems? Are trophic interactions related to learning? What does the trophic theory of neural connections imply about the currently fashionable view that the nervous system operates according to Darwinian principles?Purves lays the theoretical foundation for practical exploration of trophic interactions as they apply to neural connections, a pursuit that will help us understand how our own nervous systems generate change. The ideas in this book not only enrich neurobiology but also convey the profound relevance of neuroscience to other fields of life science.

Music as Biology

Music as Biology

Dale Purves

Harvard University Press
2017
sidottu
The universality of musical tones has long fascinated philosophers, scientists, musicians, and ordinary listeners. Why do human beings worldwide find some tone combinations consonant and others dissonant? Why do we make music using only a small number of scales out of the billions that are possible? Why do differently organized scales elicit different emotions? Why are there so few notes in scales? In Music as Biology, Dale Purves argues that biology offers answers to these and other questions on which conventional music theory is silent.When people and animals vocalize, they generate tonal sounds—periodic pressure changes at the ear which, when combined, can be heard as melodies and harmonies. Human beings have evolved a sense of tonality, Purves explains, because of the behavioral advantages that arise from recognizing and attending to human voices. The result is subjective responses to tone combinations that are best understood in terms of their contribution to biological success over evolutionary and individual history. Purves summarizes evidence that the intervals defining Western and other scales are those with the greatest collective similarity to the human voice; that major and minor scales are heard as happy or sad because they mimic the subdued and excited speech of these emotional states; and that the character of a culture’s speech influences the tonal palette of its traditional music.Rethinking music theory in biological terms offers a new approach to centuries-long debates about the organization and impact of music.
