Really great stuff here, man. Well done! Without taking anything away from the article it would have been great to have under one "roof" similar information about hypnotherapy and subliminals. I invested quite a lot in buying binaural cd's but after reading your material I think that for short term effects isochronic tones rather than binaurals are the technology to go for now. For longer lasting and possibly permanent effects I'm not sure whether I should go for hypnosis or subliminals (or both). An article as well written and comprehensive as yours but focusing on hypnosis vs subliminals would have completed the circle for me. The stuff I've read so far on binaurals vs isochronics hasn't really done it for me. Any chance you could give it a shot?
way of describing it—at both theta brainwave frequencies. And then there are also 40-Hz gamma frequencies, the frequency that came through a lot when the Dalai Lama sent some Buddhist monks to have their brain waves studied as they were meditating and doing loving-kindness practices. Gamma is associated both with heightened awareness and also with loving-kindness practices, metta practices.
Other than that the experience of those brainwave states is no different. Once we achieve a particular brainwave state using entrainment there is one significant difference to the experience and that is that we are usually still at a high level of consciousness. We're not (hopefully) zoned out as we are when daydreaming or unconscious as we are when we're sleeping. We maintain awareness and therefore we get to consciously experience what those brainwave states feel like in some detail.
Meanwhile, the therapeutic benefits of listening to sound and music is a well-established principle upon which the practice of receptive music therapy is founded. The term 'receptive music therapy' denotes a process by which patients or participants listen to music with specific intent to therapeutically benefit; and is a term used by therapists to distinguish it from 'active music therapy' by which patients or participants engage in producing vocal or instrumental music.[37] Receptive music therapy is an effective adjunctive intervention suitable for treating a range of physical and mental conditions.[38]
A good sense of humor can't cure all ailments, but it can help you feel better, even if you have to force a fake laugh through your grumpiness. When you laugh, it not only lightens your mental load but also causes positive physical changes in your body. Laughter fires up and then cools down your stress response. So read some jokes, tell some jokes, watch a comedy or hang out with your funny friends.

Binaural beats, or binaural tones, are auditory processing artifacts (apparent sounds) resulting from the stimulation of the ears with two different sound frequencies. In fact, when two different vibrations are delivered to the brain separately through each ear, using stereo headphones, the two hemispheres of the brain function together to "hear" and perceive not the external sound signals, but a third phantom signal. This resulting signal, discovered in 1839 by Heinrich Wilhelm Dove, is called "binaural beat". The effect on the brain waves depends on the difference of each tone. For example, if a sound frequency of 300 Hz is played in the left ear and 307 Hz in the right one, then the binaural beat would have a frequency of 7 Hz ("frequency following response") which corresponds to the Alpha brain state, generally associated with relaxation, visualization and creativity. The beating tone is perceived as if the two tones mixed naturally, out of the brain. For the binaural beat effect to occur, the difference between the two frequencies must be small (less than or equal to 30 Hz), otherwise, the two tones will be heard separately, and no beat will be perceived.
♥ I've beeen training in self-hypnosis for a while (under supervision and for a reason) and found that the 8-4 Hz beats put me very quickly in a deeply relaxed state. Definitely the thing! With the timer, I can shut them for the real self-hypnosis. I haven't tried the other beat generators yet, but this one works much better than I expected and clearly does the job. In a few words: I'm impressed!
In addition to the exercise prescription, other characteristics of the exercise session (e.g., group vs. individual) and the individual also are important considerations. Because of health consequences associated with stress, high-stress clients are likely to be at increased risk for cardiovascular disease and cardiovascular events during exercise. Therefore, using the preexercise screening procedures outlined and endorsed by the American College of Sports Medicine is essential (1). Monitoring exercise intensity for those looking to "blow off steam" to reduce stress might be a concern when the client has high blood pressure or other cardiovascular risk factors that further the risk increase for cardiovascular events.
"Stress and sleepless nights are closely linked," Buenaver says. "If you're in pain, tend to worry, or are coping with a difficult situation in your life, you may have more stress hormones than usual circulating in your body. A poor night's sleep adds even more. And those hormones may never be fully broken down. It's like running an engine in fifth gear all the time."
Building on guided imagery, you can also imagine yourself achieving goals like becoming healthier and more relaxed, doing well at tasks, and handling conflict in better ways. Also, visualizing yourself doing well on tasks you're trying to master actually functions like physical practice, so you can improve your performance through visualizations as well.
There are general recommendations for stress management that can be applied in most situations. However, keep in mind that there are individual differences and preferences, so a "cookie cutter" approach should be avoided when making recommendations. A comprehensive stress management program will include specific techniques prescribed on an individual basis, but general stress management recommendations are presented in Table 2.
Because the brain filters and interprets reality in a split-brained way, we tend to see things as separate and opposed, rather than as connected and part of the oneness spoken of by the great spiritual teachers (and, in the last few decades, by quantum mechanical physicists). Thus, at a deep level, the dual structure of our brain, in conjunction with brain lateralization, predisposes us to see and experience ourselves as separate from, and often in opposition to, the rest of the world—instead of experiencing the elegant interconnectedness between us and everything else. Our childhood associations and programming build on this inborn tendency by training us to seek this and avoid that, to move toward pleasure and away from pain, to do good and not bad, and so on. The greater the lateralization in the brain, the greater the feelings of separation—and the greater the feelings of separation, the greater the fear, stress, anxiety, and isolation.
When you play a tone with a slightly different frequency into your left and right ear — say, 200 hertz (Hz) in one and 210 Hz in the other — they travel separately to your inferior colliculus, the part of your brain that gathers auditory input. There, the tones "squelch" together into a so-called "beat" at a perceived new frequency. (In this case, it would be 10 Hz.)
Brain waves are electrical activity patterns caused by the neurons of the brain communicating with each other. Brain waves can be detected using sensitive medical equipment such as an electroencephalogram (EEG) monitor. Brain waves provide an indication of the mental state of an individual. In other words, the appearance of brain waves is directly connected to what a person is doing, thinking or feeling. The different Brain states are: Gamma, Beta, Alpha, Theta, Delta. You have your own unique brain wave patterns that function habitually. Some of these brain wave habits are useful, and others need some fine-tuning. When your brain is functioning efficiently, your brain waves are "in sync" with your activity, but stress or lack of sleep can interfere with this natural harmonious relationship. To restore this harmony, at Gaia Meditation, we have developed a wide range of free audio programs, including meditation music, relaxation music, sleep music and plenty other Sound Healing programs.
"In order to get into a flow state, you have to calm a part of the brain, the posterior cingulate cortex, which is the source of what brain scientists call the default state, which is the non-focused state," says Harris. "At any rate, it turns out that Holosync [binaural beats], when you listen to it, [calms that part of the brain] and so does traditional meditation. It's just Holosync does it faster and more easily and more effortlessly. It turns down the posterior cingulate cortex and it enhances the other part of the brain that, when it's enhanced, you can easily go into a flow state."
Working out is one of the most effective stress relievers. Researchers recently found that after spending 30 minutes on a treadmill, their subjects scored 25 percent lower on tests that measure anxiety and showed favorable changes in brain activity. If you only have time to do one thing for yourself, make it sticking to your workout routines. If you can't hit the gym or trails, even a brisk 30-minute walk at lunch or getting up several times a day to stretch and walk around will help relieve stress.
"Like the pulses of vibration that produce sound on a guitar string, your brain also creates pulses of vibrations. These vibrations are electrical impulses," continues Naik. "Their activity can be measured by using an EEG (electroencephalogram), which measures the frequency of these pulses [which is measured in Hertz]. Your brain actually has a predominant frequency at which it operates in any given moment; this can be associated with your state of mind."
Some research suggests that the benefits from brainwave entrainment can last a lot longer, and still be seen for some time after you've stopped using it. Study participants have still maintained improved test scores a few weeks after the stimulation had ceased. Research on the long-term benefits has so far been minimal though, so how long the effects last is still up for debate.
Eric Bartel is the creator of the Free Binaural Beats website and the sole creator of the audios found here. He specializes in creating binaural beats and isochronic tones along with relaxing ambient meditation music. From his home studio in the Black Hills of South Dakota, Eric is committed to bringing the healing power of binaural beats to anyone who wants to live a more peaceful, relaxed and fulfilled life.
Please note: When you take one earphone out, move it as far away from your ear as possible. With some headphones you may still be able to hear the pulsating sound if the removed headphone is still fairly close to your ear; this is because your brain can still detect the frequency vibration coming from the headphone. In addition, push the earphone that's still on your ear tightly to your ear, while moving the other earphone as far away as possible.
The use of brainwave entrainment techniques offers many benefits for overall health and well-being, including improved emotional stability, increased cognitive function, and a deepening of creative insight. Much of this benefit derives from the hemispheric synchronization occurring as a result of entrained brainwaves. This effect happens when the electrical impulses in both hemispheres synchronized to the same frequency being delivered through the entrainment source.
In order to understand brainwave entrainment you first have to understand something about brain waves and electroencephalograms (EEG). Neurons are cells that communicate with each other through electrical conduction. When a neuron fires it creates a small electrical and magnetic field. These fields are far too small to measure by placing electrodes on the scalp, or even on the surface of the brain. The only reason we can detect the electrical fields of the brain is because many neurons are firing together – in synchrony. All brain waves that are measured by an EEG, therefore, represent a large group of neurons firing together.
Since it's humble beginnings, the science of brainwave entrainment has evolved to be one of the most potent and powerful ways to unlock the full potential of the human mind. Our audios have been created by brainwave entrainment engineer, Ashton Aiden, and his years of research, expertise, personal experience, and creativity. We are confident that the audios we offer on this site are of the best quality you will ever find, anywhere.
Living in a Mindful Universe relates the emerging view of consciousness that is revolutionizing the scientific community, and is, in many ways, the continuation of Dr. Alexander's journey since writing Proof of Heaven. This journey parallels an unprecedented shift in the western scientific paradigm that, when fully incorporated, will lead to far more meaning and purpose in our lives.
There are differences between high (over 18 hertz), mid (15 to 18 hertz), and low range beta states (12 to 15 hertz). Low beta states are more relaxed while still being focused, making this a good range for many daily work related tasks like balancing a checkbook, making a shopping list, or driving to a new place. However, people with attention deficit disorder lack the mental focus for doing these types of activities, and studies have found people with ADD are often low in this range of beta brainwaves.
Everyone experiences stress, and not all stress is bad. Individuals who experience acute episodic or chronic stress are at increased risk for developing stress-related health problems. Research supports the idea that exercise can improve the way the body handles stress, and it can provide a time-out from stressors. Exercise programs meeting the current recommendations for health included within a stress management program can be effective in stress reduction. However, it is important to consider the client's stressors and physical activity barriers, activities the client will enjoy, and the exercise setting. Prescribing exercise for clients seeking stress management is recommended, but fitness professionals should recognize that some clients will need additional assistance for managing stress and major life stressors.

The brain has two hemispheres that operate somewhat independently from one another. The two hemispheric structures of the brain are connected by a large nerve, called the corpus callosum, which sends information back and forth between the two sides of the brain. In most people, the left hemisphere controls language, logical thinking, and analytic processes and the right side contains the centers for emotion, intuition, and non-linear creative thinking.
The brain is composed of millions of specialized cells called neurons. Neurons send signals to other neurons using electro-chemical messengers called neuro-transmitters that attach to receiving sites located on the neurons themselves. There is a space between the end of the neuron and the receptor called the synaptic gap. As neuro-transmitter chemicals move across this gap, a small electrical charge is created.
If you happen to be someone who already knows about the physics of sound, then you'll know that frequencies of 20 hertz or less cannot be heard by the human ear. So how on earth can we use sound to create frequencies as low as 0.1 hertz, and how will you be able to hear them? This is where the "magic" of binaural beats comes into action. Actually, it's not magic at all...it's more physics! If you are feeling a bit adventurous, then click on the following link to find out how binaural frequencies are created.
Respectfully ask others to change their behavior. And be willing to do the same. Small problems often create larger ones if they aren't resolved. If you're tired of being the target of a friend's jokes at parties, ask him or her to leave you out of the comedy routine. In return, be willing to enjoy his or her other jokes and thank him or her for humoring you.
There are many ways to reduce tension and relax, but some are more effective than others. Some techniques are difficult to learn while others are challenging to practice. Others have negative consequences that almost outweigh their effectiveness or can create bigger problems. Here are ten stress relievers proven to be among the most effective for the amount of work and time involved. Most can be learned in the time it takes to read this page and will help you to feel more relaxed almost immediately. And even more exciting, the stress relief benefits will increase with regular practice. Try as many as you can—there's something here for everyone.
Exercise and stress research has typically focused on aerobic exercise. There have been consistent findings that people report feeling calmer after a 20- to 30-minute bout of aerobic exercise, and the calming effect can last for several hours after exercise. Recently, there has been an increased amount of research on the role of mind-body types of exercise such as yoga or Tai Chi. Unfortunately, there is somewhat limited research on the role of resistance exercise in stress management.
Listening to brainwave entrainment music will provide you with the benefits of a formal meditation practice. It will improve your mental clarity, your creativity and your ability to learn and to concentrate. It will bring you peace of mind and emotional stability. It is also one of the most powerful natural ways to cure insomnia and can dramatically improve the quality of your sleep.
Binaural beats are pretty simple. Basically, you take two frequencies that are similar and play each one through it's own stereo headphone. The two competing frequencies will work together in your mind to produce a pulsing. That pulse will be a certain frequency that corresponds to a number in hertz that is linked to what your brain produces when you are in certain states of consciousness.

Although getting organized and staying organized is not often thought of as a stress management technique per se, this is an activity that can reduce the stress you face in your life, and can even be calming as you are engaged in the act. (See how cleaning can be a stress reliever in itself.) By working through the clutter of your life, you can eliminate those energy drains that can make you feel like you're 'being pecked to death by ducks' and reserve that energy for dealing with life's more important challenges. Read more on being organized and eliminating extra stress from your life.
OK – so some of this is pretty common marketing hype. Consumers have become almost numb to such hyperbole. But still we see some of the common – almost ubiquitous – elements of pseudoscientific scams. The company claims that the device is "effort-free", that the results are "rapid and long-lasting," that it is the "most effective" method of its kind, and that it is useful for a broad range of applications (hey, why limit the market). I am used to such hype about dishwashing detergent, but find it intolerable when applied to a pseudoscientific device with medical applications.

When you hit a tuning fork, tuned to a particular sound frequency such as the note B, and hold it close to the strings of a guitar, you will notice that the B string on the guitar will vibrate because it has entrained on to the same frequency of the tuning fork. Interesting enough, the other strings will not vibrate. Only the one with the same tuning as the tuning fork.
Binaural meditation music is VERY popular these days, and you might have noticed that some of the companies that sell binaural music products make rather spectacular claims about the benefits of brainwave entrainment technology. Some declare that they can make you "meditate like a zen monk at the touch of a button", or that you will "instantly meditate like the greatest gurus". While it is true that binaural meditation music is extremely powerful, and that it can genuinely improve the quality of your life, it is not a miracle solution or a spiritual "get rich quick" scheme. Like all things in life, positive and lasting results will still take just a little time and effort on your part. Binaural meditation music just accelerates and deepens to process.

Entrainment is a physics principle in which one rhythmic system falls in synchrony with another rhythmic system. If you've ever found yourself moving your body to the beat of your favorite song, then you've experienced entrainment in its most basic form. Besides music, this principle can be found all around you, probably more than you realize. Here are a few examples:

The carpal tunnel syndrome arises if the median nerve, which extends from the forearm to the hand, is subjected to pressure or crushing at the wrist. The median nerve controls sensations on the palm side of the thumb and fingers (not the little finger) as well as the pulses directed to some small muscles of the hand that allow the fingers and thumb to move. The carpal tunnel, a narrow and rigid passage consisting of ligament and bone, at the base of the hand, houses the median nerve and tendons. Sometimes the swelling of the tendons or other swelling constrict the tunnel and cause the median nerve to be compressed. The results are pain, weakness or a sensation of numbness in the hand and wrist, radiating towards the arm. Although these painful states may indicate other disorders, the carpal tunnel syndrome is the most well known and famous neuropathy, the term for disorders in which the body's peripheral nerves are compressed or traumatized. Carpal tunnel syndrome is often the result of a combination of factors that increase pressure on the median nerve and tendons of the carpal tunnel, and not a problem with the nerve itself. The symptoms usually appear gradually, with frequent sensations of burning, tingling or numbness combined with itching on the palm of the hand and the fingers, especially the thumb and the index and middle fingers. The symptoms often appear for the first time in one or both hands during the night. When symptoms worsen you may experience an unpleasant tingling sensation during the day. The fact that gripping power decreases could make it difficult to make a fist, grasp small objects, or perform other activities involving the use of the hands.
Acupuncture and chiropractic cures may have been helpful for some patients in the past, but their effectiveness remains to be demonstrated. The only exception is yoga: it has been shown that it reduces pain and increases strength in the hands of patients who suffer from carpal tunnel syndrome. Of course a general, continuous, regular and balanced yoga practice strengthens the wrists, arms and hands so that these symptoms often do not even appear.
If this happens, however, perhaps because the hands have been put under a lot of strain (pruning trees, kneading bread etc.) and the symptoms of numbness and/or tingling appear during the night, the following position, UTTANASTAMBHASANA, will help.
Here is how to do it:
Lying down bend your knees and rest your feet on the ground, shoulder width apart. Raise your hips, stretch out your arms with the fingers intertwined under the hips keeping the wrists close together. Pull the shoulders back bringing the shoulder blades as close together as possible. This is very important because if you don't keep the arms taut and the shoulder blades close together the hips will end up resting on the knuckles of the hands which will be quite painful. Inhale and exhaling, lower the trunk onto the outstretched arms, then inhaling raise your legs to form a right angle with the body. Hold the position with a regular and calm breath for as long as feels comfortable and then come out of the position following the same steps.
It has helped me many times as I work a lot with my hands and therefore put them under strain. I find it has an almost homeopathic effect seeing as when you come out of the position you initially feel a sensation of numbness in the hands caused by the blocking of the flow of blood into the hands. On release, the blood flows back strongly just like when you block a water pipe and on releasing it the water comes out with a lot more pressure.
Good luck with the practice! Did you enjoy this article? Share it …

In vitro interactions between antifungals and immunosuppressants against Aspergillus fumigatus isolates from transplant and nontransplant patients.
Journal Article
We performed in vitro antifungal checkerboard testing on 12 Aspergillus fumigatus clinical isolates (6 transplant recipients and 6 nontransplant patients) with three antifungal agents (amphotericin B, voriconazole, and caspofungin) and three immunosuppressants (FK506, cyclosporine, and rapamycin). We were not able to detect a difference in calcineurin inhibitor antifungal activity against isolates from transplant recipients and nontransplant patients.

To test this, the fate of VC in aerobic and anaerobic microcosms containing surficial sediment of a riverbed hyporheic zone receiving VC-contaminated groundwater was explored. Surgical tools, such as ultrasonic shears and vessel sealing systems, have increased in popularity and improved surgical outcomes. Over the last few decades, enormous attention has been paid to study synchronization conditions of connected oscillators in chemistry, physics, mechanics, and particularly in biology. We find that the risks associated with fat and caloric consumption are extremely sensitive to a priori analytic decisions made by epidemiologist about the underlying collinearity problem.

I created a live USB of windows 7 with unetbootin. I'm running Ubuntu 12.04. I have a Lenovo z580 intel core i7 with 8gb ram. My computer won't boot from USB. USB is first in the boot order. My stick is flagged as boot in gparted. I tried booting from usb via system setup from the grub menu. It just sends me back to grub. BTW the usb stick is formatted fat32 (as per a recommendation that unetbootin will fail with NTFS) however I also tried with it formatted to NTFS and it also fails to boot from USB.
I think your USB MBR (Master Boot Record) has corrupted. Open Terminal and type these commands:
sudo apt-get install mbr
fdisk -l (to find out which device is your flash drive)
install-mbr /dev/sdx (replacing x with your flash device)
and then create the live USB again.

the buoyant spaces of these cupolas, the faceless cameraman, the sewing of a buttonhole, and the invisible bird hunt are all elements in a sustained dialogue. the film ends with an inundation of rain, which we can hear before we see it accompanied with various paintings. the rainfall at the conclusion of the film suggests a hyperbolic metaphor for the tears of mourning and a metonymy of cyclic renewal.

In a complaint submitted to the EC, the SAD urged the poll panel to get the issue probed by a senior police officer keeping in view the seriousness of the charges.
A board member of Vir Haqiqat Rai School in Patiala has been accused of raping a minor girl of the school in connivance with the school principal.
Expressing "shock at the insensitivity of the Congress government" in not reacting to the issue, the SAD said "this is a clear indication that the accused is linked with the Congress party and this is why he is being sheltered".
SAD spokesman Charanjit Brar said as per the testimony of the minor girl, the school principal used to take her to the board member who raped her.
The girl has also claimed that the school board member also asked her to introduce her friends to him.
"The issue was in the notice of the District Child Protection Officer but it was strange that the Patiala Police was dragging its feet and refusing to take any action against the accused persons. Attempts were also being made to hush up the entire issue and no FIR had been registered in the case to help the accused go scot free," Brar said.

I would guess a lot of Logos users would like to be able to search for (and then view) all their notes and highlights made in Bibles and commentaries for a specific Bible reference.
In Logos 8, when passages in commentaries are highlighted, the anchor for the note includes both the Bible reference and the name of the resource (Examples, "John 10:25-30 BECNT JN" or "John 10:29 UBS Handbook: John").
I think it would improve Logos 8 immensely if an update allowed users to search within anchors. For instance, a search for <John 10:29> would generate a list of notes and highlights which would include both of the above highlights. Currently, a search for <John 10:29> or John 10:29 does not bring up either of the highlights noted above. My understanding is that currently the only way to find both of these notes on John 29 would be to open John under the Bible Book section of the Notes sidebar and then scroll through all of one's notes for John beginning at John 1:1. And yes, that can lead to a LOT of scrolling. Ironically, the difficulty of finding highlights for a bible passage increases as a user creates more highlights and notes.
Just wondering if there are other community members who would like this search capability. And hoping so one from Logos can weigh in on this as well.
Hi Paul
I think this is a good idea

Why Your Marriage Counseling Failed
Note: Dr. Stosny posted some of this same material and much more on emotional abuse on the Oprah Winfrey Website.
Mistakes and miscommunication do not lead to abuse. Anger and abuse in relationships begin with blame: "I feel bad, and it's your fault." Even when they recognize the wrongness of their behavior, resentful, angry, or emotionally abusive people are likely to blame it on their partners: "You push my buttons," or, "I might have overreacted, but I'm human, and look what you did!" Angry and abusive people feel like victims, which justifies in their minds victimizing others.
Angry and abusive partners tend to be anxious by temperament. From the time they were young children, they've had a consistent sense of dread that things will go badly and they will fail to cope. They try to control their environment to avoid terrible feelings of failure and inadequacy. The strategy of trying to control others fails to satisfy them for the simple reason that the primary cause of their anxiety is within them, not in their environment. It springs from one of two sources: a heavy dread of failure or fear of harm, isolation, and deprivation.
The Silent Abuser Not all emotional abuse involves shouting or criticism. More common forms are "disengaging" (the distracted or preoccupied partner) or "stonewalling" (the partner who refuses to accept anyone else's perspective).
Partners who stonewall may not overtly put anyone down. Nevertheless, they punish by refusing even to think about their partners' perspectives. If they listen at all, they do so dismissively or impatiently.
Disengaging partners say, "Do whatever you want, just leave me alone." They're often workaholics, couch potatoes, flirts, or obsessive about something. They try to deal with their sense of inadequacy about relationships by simply not trying – no attempt means no failure.
Both stonewalling and disengaging tactics can make you feel:
- Unseen and unheard
- Unattractive
- Like you don't count
- Like a single parent.
No One Escapes the Effects of Verbal Abuse or Emotional Abuse
Everyone in a walking-on-eggshells family loses some degree of dignity and autonomy. No fewer than half the members of these unfortunate families, including the children, suffer from clinical anxiety and/or depression. ("Clinical" doesn't mean feeling down or blue or worried, it means that the symptoms interfere with normal functioning. They can't sleep, can't concentrate, can't work as efficiently, and can't enjoy themselves without drinking.) Most of the adults lack genuine self-value (based on realistic self-appraisals), and the children rarely feel as good as other kids.
When it comes to the more severe forms of destructiveness, emotional abuse is usually more psychologically harmful than physical abuse. There are a couple of reasons for this.
Even in the most violent families, the incidents tend to be cyclical. Early in the abuse cycle, a violent outburst is followed by a honeymoon period of remorse, attention, affection, and generosity, but not genuine compassion. (The honeymoon stage eventually ends, as the victim begins to say, "Never mind the damn flowers, just stop hitting me!") Emotional abuse, on the other hand, tends to happen every day. So the effects are more harmful because they're so frequent.
The other factor that makes emotional abuse so devastating is the greater likelihood that victims will blame themselves. If someone hits you, it's easier to see that he or she is the problem, but if the abuse is subtle – saying or implying that you're ugly, a bad parent, stupid, incompetent, not worth attention, or that no one could love you – you are more likely to think it's your problem.
Important questions to ask of yourself:
Do I like myself?
Am I able to realize my potential?
Does everyone I care about feel safe?
Do my children like themselves?
Are they able to realize their fullest potential?
Do they feel safe?
Verbal Abuse, Emotional Abuse & The Mirror of Love
How We Learn How Lovable We Are
Everyone who loves another is susceptible to some form of emotional or verbal abuse, by virtue of the Mirror of Love.
Attachment relationships – those held together by strong emotional bonds – serve as mirrors of the inner self. We learn how lovable we are and how valuable our love is to others only by interacting with the people we love.
Young children never question the impressions of themselves they get from their parents. They do not think that their critical, stressed-out mothers or their raging fathers are just having a bad time or trying to recover from their own difficult childhoods. Young children are likely to attribute negative reflections of themselves from their parents to their own inadequacy and unworthiness.
Suppose you'd internalized your body-image based on reflections from a fun house mirror, which made your hips look a mile wide. You would think you were in deep trouble and that no diet could help. Once you've internalized a negative image, you distrust even accurate mirrors – people who are gaunt from eating disorders actually see themselves as fat when they look in a mirror that reflects little more than skin and bones. Even those who do not have eating disorders but who were told repeatedly as children that they were too thin are likely to see themselves as thin adults, despite mirror reflections that show a few extra pounds.
When it comes to physical appearance, at least we have lots of other mirrors to compare to the distorted funhouse reflection; this gives us a good chance to overcome an internalized negative image of the body. But there are no reflections of love other than those we get from the people we love. If you judge how lovable you are based on reflections from someone who cannot love without hurt, you will have a distorted and inaccurate view of yourself as a loving and lovable person.
The instinct to believe the information about the self that loved ones reflect weakens somewhat as we grow older, but it remains active throughout life. You would probably laugh — or at least not get angry — at someone who implied that you have green hair. But if your husband or wife says it, you're likely to run to a mirror. The default assumption is, if your partner is displeased, there must be something wrong with you, and you need anger or resentment for protection.
No matter how much we argue with loved ones about their criticisms and put-downs, we are likely to believe them, at least unconsciously. We might not agree with the particular flaw pointed out, but on some deep level, we'll perceive a defect that must be defended. Some part of us buys into the "blemishes" reflected in the mirror of love, even when we know intellectually that our loved one is distorting who we are. This hidden pressure from the mirror of love is why successful and powerful people are just as vulnerable as anyone to verbal abuse and to walking on eggshells in their love relationships.
Of course, the mirror of love also reflects good news. If you learn how lovable you are and how valuable your love is from compassionate caretakers, you will naturally have a more realistic view of yourself in love relationships. You'll be disappointed and saddened sometimes, but you'll hardly ever feel inadequate, unworthy, or unlovable. Just as important, when you feel sad or disappointed, you'll know that you can do something to improve your emotional state, if not your situation. Your sadness will be short-lived – you'll feel bad for a while, then regroup and do something that will make you feel valuable once again.
The mirror of love generates energy when it reflects value, and depletes energy when it doesn't.
In verbally abusive relationships, the mirror of love reflects mostly flaws and defects, in the form of criticism, sarcasm, resentment, and anger. Everyone in the family begins to confuse "function" with value and "task-performance" with love. The pain is never about the facts or specific behavior — no matter how your partner puts it, you hear: "If you don't do what I want, I can't value you. And if I can't value you, you are not worth loving." This is the message the verbally abusive partner reflects back at you, no matter how much he or she claims to be talking "facts" or "logic" or "fairness" or "tasks."
Why We Hurt the Ones We Love: Blaming the Mirror
A distressed or misbehaving child can make us feel like failures as parents and thoroughly inadequate. A raging or rejecting parent can make a child feel powerless, inadequate, and unlovable. A distracted, demanding, or hostile lover can make us feel disregarded, devalued, and rejected. After working for many thousands of hours with people trying to overcome painful relationship problems, I'm convinced that we use resentment and anger to punish loved ones, not so much for their behavior as for our painful reflections in the mirror of love. We want to attack the mirror because we don't like the reflection.
The only way out of this morass is to stop viewing emotional pain as a punishment inflicted by someone else and learn to act on it as an internal motivation to heal, correct, and improve. This will lead to a deeper self-compassion and put us more in touch with our deepest values, which will, in turn, inspire more compassion for one another. You can love without hurt, but only if you use pain as a signal to heal and improve rather than punish.
Effects on Children of Witnessing Verbal Abuse or Emotional Abuse
Children who witness chronic resentment, anger, emotional abuse, or verbal abuse in their homes often present with a host of symptoms. The usual ones are:
- Depression (looks like chronic boredom with little interest in things that usually interest kids)
- Anxiety (worry, especially about things kids don't usually worry about, like safety and whether the bills will get paid)
- School problems
- Aggressiveness
- Hyperactivity (can't sit still)
- Low self-esteem (don't feel as good as other kids)
- Over emotionality (anger, excitability or crying) that sometimes comes out of nowhere
- No emotions at all.
They may generally feel:
- Disregarded
- Untrusting
- Powerless, inadequate, or unlovable
- Like burdens to their parents
Living in a household where they walk on eggshells increases the likelihood of becoming either an abuser or a victim of abuse as adults. They run a higher risk of:
- Alcoholism
- Drug abuse
- Criminality
- Mental health problems
- Poverty
Witnessing a parent victimized is usually more psychologically damaging to children than injuries from direct child abuse. Seeing a parent abused is child abuse.
The Healthiest Thing for Your Children: Be Compassionate to Each Other
Parents model for children how to regulate their own emotions and how to participate in relationships. By watching us, they learn how to:
- Cheer themselves up and calm themselves down
- Deal with anger – use respectful negotiation instead of bickering, cold shoulders, stonewalling, etc.
- Behave like a loving and lovable partner.
When parents model these things, their children develop the Five Rs:
- Resourcefulness
- Responsibility
- Respect
- Relationship skills
- Regulation of impulses and emotions
Even if your partner does not cooperate with making your relationship more compassionate, you can change your kids' lives for the better with compassionate parenting:
- Learn from your children
- Understand their experience of the world
- Understand your emotional responses to them
- Enjoy them
- Value them
- Empower them to come up with solutions to their problems – don't do everything for them
- Allow them to be themselves
Unless your child's symptoms are severe, our experience has been that doing the work in the Boot Camps, as outlined in Love without Hurt, eliminates most of the symptoms. Children learn by modeling — by watching how their parents regulate their emotions. When you are less reactive, more authentic, and more compassionate, they will be, too.
Help is available in the Love without Hurt Boot Camps.
Chronic Resentment, Anger, or Emotional Abuse Cause Self-Loathing
Imagine the worst thing you have ever said or done to someone you love. You were upset or felt provoked, and you said or did something that caused that person emotional hurt.
How would you respond if you saw a stranger do or say the same thing as you to the person you love?
Anger, Aggression, Loathing
Emotional bonds carry with them an unconscious, automatic instinct to protect. If you were to see a loved one harmed verbally, emotionally, or physically by someone else, you would experience anger, an aggressive impulse, and loathing. For that moment, you would hate the person harming your loved one; you'd want to hurt him or her in return.
So what happens to the unconscious and automatic anger, aggression, and loathing when you are the one hurting a loved one? Where do the anger, aggression and loathing go?
When you hurt someone you love, the ultimate object of your anger, aggression, and hatred is you. The unavoidable legacy of spiteful, angry, or abusive behavior directed at loved ones is self-loathing. Every harsh word you say to a loved one and every cold shoulder you turn toward someone you love makes you hate yourself a little more.
The inevitable self-loathing of hurting loved ones is usually hidden. Self-loathing makes us feel powerless. You have probably conditioned states of powerlessness to stimulate some kind of adrenalin rush, usually in the form of resentment or anger. Thus self-loathing is easily covered up with a hollow bravado or self-righteousness, which practically guarantees repeated harm of loved ones.
The tragedy of using anger – or any other adrenalin rush – to mask self-loathing is that the self-loathing is not punishment from which we need protection. Rather, it is motivation to be compassionate to loved ones, which is the only thing that will relieve it. Compassion means always treating a loved one with value and respect, especially when you disagree.
Are You a Resentful, Angry, Verbally Abusive, or Emotionally Abusive Man?
It can happen to anyone!
Anyone can become emotionally abusive in an intimate relationship. The path to emotional abuse begins at the point where resentment starts to outweigh compassion.
Because resentment makes you feel like a victim – it feels like someone else is controlling your thoughts, feelings, and behavior – it comes with a built-in retaliation impulse. If you're resentful, you are probably in some way emotionally abusive to the people you love. You likely have devalued, demeaned, sought to control or manipulate and deliberately hurt the feelings of loved ones. But you've been so focused on what you don't like about their behavior that you haven't noticed what you don't like about your own. You probably have not grasped that resentment has made you into someone you are not.
- Does it feel like your wife or girlfriend pushes your buttons?
- Does she have a way of putting you in a bad mood?
- Are there times when you don't want to speak to her or be around her?
- Do you feel like you overlook a lot or swallow a lot, until you can't stand it anymore?
- Does she frequently "do things the wrong way?"
- Can you be having a nice time and then out of nowhere she says or does something to set you off?
- Are you sometimes on edge about having a bad or unpleasant evening?
- Does it feel like you have to criticize her for not being more efficient, reliable, or a better person?
- Does it feel like she makes you yell or shut down when you really don't want to raise your voice or be in a bad mood at all?
- Do you treat her in ways you couldn't have imagined when you first started loving her?
If you answered yes to any of the above, here are some things that your wife or girlfriend probably says about you:
- He's so moody.
- He doesn't see or hear me.
- I feel like I'm his possession.
- I can't be myself; I have to think, feel, and behave the way he wants.
- Nothing I do is good enough.
- I feel like I'm walking on eggshells.

- Do you automatically blame him when things go wrong?
- Do you resort to name-calling, swearing at him, or putting him down?
- Do you demean or belittle him in front of other people or your children?
- Do you threaten to take his children away so he will never see them?
- Are you often jealous and want to know where he is at all times?
- Would your family and friends be surprised to know how you treat him behind closed doors?

- Nothing I do is good enough.
- I feel like I'm walking on eggshells.
Why Your Marriage Counseling Failed
If you live with a resentful, angry, or emotionally abusive person, you most likely have tried marriage counseling that made things worse at home.
By the time couples come to our boot camps for chronic resentment, anger, or emotional abuse, they have been to an average of three marriage counselors. A major reason for their disappointment is that marriage counseling presupposes that both parties have self-regulation skill – the ability to hold onto self-value while they regulate guilt, shame, and a state of inadequacy, without feeling entitled to blame them on one another. In our Age of Entitlement, fewer couples seem able or willing to do this.
Another strike against marriage counseling is manifest in an old joke among marriage therapists: We all have skid marks at the door from husbands being drug in. Therapists tend to go out of their way to engage the man because he is 10 times more likely to drop out than his wife. In cases of normal relationship distress, this extra effort to keep the man engaged isn't usually a problem. But in verbally or emotionally abusive relationships it can be disastrous. Here's an example:
Therapist: Estelle, it seems that Gary gets angry when he feels judged.
Gary: That's right. I get judged about everything.
Therapist: (to Estelle) I'm not saying that you are judging him. I'm saying that he feels judged. Perhaps if your request could be put in such a way that he wouldn't feel judged, you would get a better reaction.
Estelle: How do I do that?
Therapist: I noticed that when you ask him for something, you focus on what he's doing wrong. You also use the word "you" a lot. Suppose you framed it like this: "Gary, I would like it if we could spend five minutes when we get home just talking to each other about our day, because when we do that, we're both in better moods and there's no yelling." (to Gary) Would you feel judged if she put it like that?
Gary: Not at all. But I doubt that she could get the judgment out of her tone of voice. She doesn't know how to talk any other way.
Therapist: Sure she does. (to Estelle) You can say it without judgment in your voice, can't you?
Estelle: I don't mean to be judgmental; I just want him to get the point.
Therapist: Why don't we rehearse it a few times?
So now the problem isn't Gary's sense of inadequacy or his addiction to blame or his yelling or his abusiveness; it's Estelle's judgmental tone of voice. With this crucial shift in perspective introduced by the therapist, Estelle rehearsed her new approach. Gary responded positively to her efforts, while the therapist was there to contain his emotional reactivity. At home, of course, it was another matter.
In a less reactive relationship, the therapist's advice wouldn't be so bad. If Gary could regulate his emotions and sense of entitlement, he might have appreciated Estelle's efforts to consider him in the way she phrased her requests; perhaps he would have become more empathic in response. But in the day-to-day reality of their walking-on-eggshells relationship, Gary felt guilty when Estelle made greater efforts to appease him. Without self-regulation skill, he blamed his guilt on her — she wasn't doing it right, her "I-statements" had an underlying accusatory tone, she was trying to make him look bad, etc.
Many abusers assail their partners on the way home from the therapist's office for bringing up threatening or embarrassing things in the session. One couple came to our boot camp after being seriously injured in a car crash that resulted from arguments on the way home from their therapist. I'm willing to bet that if you've tried marriage counseling in a relationship rife with resentment, anger, or abuse, you've had a few chilly, argumentative, or abusive rides home from the sessions.
One popular marriage therapist and author has written that women in abusive marriages have to learn to set boundaries. "She needs to learn skills to make her message – 'I will not tolerate this behavior any longer' – heard. [The] hurt person [must] learn how to set boundaries that actually mean something." This is the therapeutic equivalent of a judge dismissing your law suit against vandals because you failed to put up a "Do not vandalize" sign. You have to wonder if this therapist puts post-its on valued objects in her office that clearly state, "Do not steal!"
Putting aside the harmful and inaccurate implication that people are abused because they don't have the "skill to set boundaries," this kind of intervention completely misses the point. Your partner's resentment, anger, or abuse has nothing to do with the way you set boundaries or with what you argue about. It has to do with his violation of his deepest values.
You will protect yourself, not by setting boundaries that he won't respect, but by reintegrating your deepest values into your everyday sense of self. When you no longer internalize the distorted image of yourself derived from your partner's behavior, a powerful conviction will emerge; you will overcome emotional reactivity and return to the person you were before the relationship went bad. Then your partner will get it: He must change the way he treats you to save the relationship.

Hah, you are wondering about this title, aren't you? It is actually very clever because on February 23rd and 24th, I took a class in "Sprang" from a world famous Sprang teacher, Carol James. Sprang you see, is an ancient braiding technique used to make clothing before knitting was invented.
So far I've made 3 pouches and I intend to make a hat soon. I'm also working on a crocheting project that I will present to this blog when finished. And I'm starting on a very big rug weaving project which got bogged down in trying to clean up my floor loom first.
The next big event was Corbin's 7th birthday. Roger and I went down to celebrate with him by taking him to the Woodland Park Zoo. We had a very fun day, although it seemed to me that he was more interested in the bronze animals than the breathing ones.
After Corbin's birthday we celebrated Eric's birthday, St Patrick's Day with the Soroptimist Fundraiser, the First Day of Spring with a "Super Moon", and the best weather we had seen in weeks. And Weeks. So we began doing things outdoors:
Roger began making copious amounts of biochar to sell at the Farmers Market, we made a raised bed for the kitchen garden, harvested lots of willow for a variety of projects, went on more walks, cut down several trees, planted olive trees (!) and pretty much celebrated Spring.
I've also been benefitting from physical therapy to reestablish range of motion on my left side. More decisions about what to do post-cancer are ahead for me. More on that next month. And this last week I've suffered from a terrible cold which has put a damper on a whole host of projects I've wanted to work on. I've been unable to spring into action.

Descriptive Account of the Panoramic View &c. of King George's Sound and the Adjacent Country
Descriptive account of the panoramic view, &c. of King George's Sound, and the adjacent country is a pamphlet written by Robert Dale in 1834, containing description and commentary on the Panoramic View of King George's Sound, Part of the Colony of Swan River, a panorama of King George's Sound painted by Robert Havell. Together with prints of the Panorama, it was sold to attendees of an exhibition given in the home of Thomas Pettigrew. Dale was an ensign in the 63rd Regiment of Foot, which was posted to Western Australia in 1829. He was assigned to the Surveyor-General's department, and thus spent his four years in the colony exploring and surveying
The booklet is twenty pages describing the region surrounding Mount Clarence, including the flora, fauna, geography, geology, and the original inhabitants, at the new founded colony in Western Australia. Other remarks regarding the southwest of the continent are also included in the text.
Robert Dale records the climate of the sound as "very fine", the temperature range and extremes are noted and compared with that of the Swan River Colony to the north. The topography of the region, from the coast to the Porrongurup Range, is described. At the right of panorama is a distant mountain range he identified as "Toolbrunnup". Areas of water within the harbour are distinguished from those of the ocean and the offshore "Islands of Breaksea and Michaelmas" are also named. The appearance of lakes and woods are also noted and mention is given to the Kalgan River and its immediate region. One area of cleared land in the image is noted as "Strawberry Hill",[1] the Government's attempt to establish a productive garden. An account of the new settlement, the viability of the country for agriculture and suitability for the production of wool, are presented as the text progresses.
Observations on the Nyungar people who inhabited the region, several of which are included within the painting, and their cultural practices were also described. Their use of the 'native dog' for kangaroo-hunting is briefly detailed. The author identifies a man in the painting as Nakinna and discusses his brother, and his method of burial, the man known as Mokaree.
Dale makes a general remark on the scarcity, and lack of beauty, of bird-life on the continent, but noted several ornamental birds found in the region. Of the other fauna he had this to say:
The animals that have been found consist of several kinds of the kangaroo and opossum—the native dog, which resembles the wolf or fox in shape—the dasyurus, a dark yellow animal with white spots, bearing some resemblance to the cat—and a small animal lately found in the interior about the size of a squirrel, or a yellowish colour, with light and dark shaded strips across the hinder parts of the back, and a tongue very long in proportion to the body.
Several of the plant genera of the region, Nuytsia, Banksia, Kingia and what is locally termed as the "Tea tree", are identified and appended with short remarks. The wood of 'the Mahogany' (Eucalyptus marginata) is given especial mention, noting the great extent of its forest and recognised value, and predicts that it would become an important export.
The author concludes the text with a discussion of the killing of Yagan, which occurred some 400 km north at the Swan River Colony, and includes an image of that man's head. This hand-coloured aquatint portrait of Yagan by George Cruikshank was inserted as the frontispiece of the pamphlet. A letter from Pettigrew, detailing the results of a phrenological post mortem, was addressed to the author and appended as the last three pages.[2]
The view is from one of two large hills that straddle the township later named Albany, that nearest the entrance[3] to Princess Royal Harbour. Dale had brought Yagan's head to London, and had entered into an arrangement whereby Pettigrew was given the exclusive right to exhibit the head at his parties. Pettigrew in turn displayed the head in front of a copy of Dale's panorama, and encouraged his guests to buy a panorama as a souvenir of their evening.
Thus, if Dale's panorama is intended to depict racial harmony, its purpose was contradicted by the accompanying pamphlet. It has been suggested that Dale included the information on Yagan in order to support his friend, Lieutenant-Governor Frederick Chidley Irwin, who had returned to London along with Dale in order to justify the killing of Yagan to his superiors.[4]

Passion is an amateur writer and artist with a strong love of the Bronalysis Community. If you talk to her you may notice that she is normally excessively polite. This is because she is afraid that she might do something that could offend others. She finds it much easier to make friends online than in the real world. Of her group of online friends, there are only a few who she's really close to. These include Sky Buster (A.K.A. BusterBuizel), KatrinaHood, and British Brony.
- Passion shares the same birthday as Ink Rose, Friday, June 19, 1998.
- Before she became acquainted with BusterBuizel she thought of him as her "Senpai", because his stories inspired her to write her own fanfictions. Now that she's actually in a relationship with him, she still likes to call him "Senpai Buster". (She's even set his Skype name as that.)
- She's the founder of this very wiki.
- She has ADHD and Asperger's Syndrome.
- She struggled to overcome Trichotillomania (compulsive hair pulling), which she had for several years. As of 2019, she finally has full eyebrows and eyelashes and has nearly completely stopped pulling.
- She is openly Pansexual.
- Passion's ponysona "Water Wings" is a character in BusterBuizel's story "Starbound Ascension: The Next Generation", as of chapter 4.
- She is "PassionateAboutPonys" on DeviantArt because she ran out of characters when creating her account.

My understanding is as follows:
A voltage induces an electric field at a capacitor, which is measured in coulombs. If I wanted the capacitor to leak the charge exponentially, I could model that as a parallel resistor around it.
How would I express the dual of this paragraph for inductors? Something like:
A current induces a magnetic field at an inductor, which is measured in (Webers?). If I wanted the inductor to leak the magnetic flux exponentially, I could model that as a (series resistor?)

Do not tailgate. Be patient. Maintain proper space with the vehicle in front of you. According to studies, the most common vehicle trucks hit is the one in front of them, due to tailgating. The bigger the rig the longer it takes to brake and stop. read more
