a new beginning with Ian Cooper 2021:

. this is my summary of a book by Ian Cooper,

One and All: A Spiritual Perspective on Getting Along 

[ad] https://amzn.to/3UYkc6f

. this book caught my eye because the intro claimed

"We are not who we think we are"

which reminded me of being born-again aware of a god.

psychiatry prof Maria Clarke 2022

DBT skills workbook in 7 weeks: 

Use Dialectical Behavior Therapy to overcome negativity, 

manage your emotions and improve your relationships. 


. prof Clarke successfully treated her own emotional pain

with a program designed to treat Borderline Personality Disorder.

. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (finding the middle ground)

is based on cognitive behavioral therapy

and dhamma, the teachings of Bhudda.

. it involves meditation, controlled breathing, journaling, 

exposure to intense exercise, temperature extremes,

and alternating between tensing and relaxing each muscle group.

. there are many techniques for negotiating with

your emotion maker and other relationships;

eg, part of self-respect is not relating to those who

require us to change our values or lie about them:

"it's ok to walk away from a toxic relationship".
