No Anesthesia: Provocations for the SELF (re)discovery, understanding, healing, development ...

By Dr. Reneta Hristova

This book presents a comprehensive guide towards self-discovery, self-understanding, self-healing, self-development and more... Written by an experience psychologist, psychotherapist with more than 20 years of practice with real-life cases, this book serves as a roadmap to dealing with the challenges of the everyday life.

Whenever we face personal challenges or go through emotional pain and suffering, it's often connected to an inner imbalance - like a kind of emotional unsteadiness. If we look closer inside ourselves, we might find that, for various reasons, it's hard to express who we are or just be ourselves. In a way, this emotional pain can be seen as a sign of something inside us being out of balance, caused by the difficulty of expressing our true selves.

When we try to solve a personal and tough situation, we're basically looking for a way to deal with the discomfort and bring our feelings back into balance. Balancing our thoughts and feelings is an interesting task, but it's just an intermediary step toward more discoveries and achievements.

These moments of 'inner shake-ups' (whenever we face something uncomfortable) could be like steppingstones for our personal growth, making us more flexible and successful. It's important to pay attention to what's happening, the desire to overcome it, how much responsibility we take for ourselves, and to some extent, the curiosity to find our place on the map of our own life and just BE.
