A pesar de los padecimientos y de la monstruosa brutalidad sufridos, Frankl pudo reconocer que, pese a todo, la vida es digna de ser vivida y que la libertad interior y la dignidad humana son indestructibles. La logoterapia, método psicoterapéutico creado por el propio Frankl, se basa precisamente en la búsqueda del sentido de la existencia, en la que el ser humano asume la responsabilidad ante sí mismo, ante los demás y ante la vida.

In seiner Biografie schildert Homayoon Pardis, dass es möglich ist, eine neue Heimat in Deutschland zu finden, ohne die eigene Herkunft zu vergessen. Denn Ankommen bedeutet viel mehr als das Finden einer Wohnung, eines Jobs und einer Kita für die Kinder. Es geht um Hoffnung, das Gefühl der Zugehörigkeit und den Glauben daran, einen Neustart erfolgreich meistern zu können. Homayoon Pardis macht deutlich, dass es nicht dem Zufall oder dem Glück überlassen ist, ob Integration in Deutschland gelingt.

C'è chi si indispettisce, c'è chi si esalta e c'è invece chi si rende conto, come il giovane Heisenberg durante la sua tormentata convalescenza a Helgoland, che probabilmente il traguardo è proprio questo: smettere di ascoltare il mondo come lo si è ascoltato fino a quel momento e avventurarsi verso una forma di comprensione assolutamente nuova. Per quanto terrore possa, a tratti, ispirare. È la via che ha preferito Benjamín Labatut, ricostruendo alcune scene che hanno deciso la nascita della scienza moderna.

James Deary, a NYC healthcare organization cofounder and behavioral scientist, never wanted to be a psychic medium. This ability more or less “happened” to him. His first near-death experience occurred when he was two years old. At age eight, he saw his first apparition. Soon thereafter, psychic experiences became commonplace. Looking back, he was always a clairvoyant who could see Spirit, but the sensing, knowing, and hearing Spirit developed over many years.

Worden we gelukkig van het krijgen van een label? Een aantal jaar geleden kreeg journalist Milou Deelen last van paniekaanvallen. Ze belandde op de bank bij een psycholoog en psychiater en werd gediagnosticeerd met zowel ADHD als PTSS. Sindsdien valt het haar op hoe ontzettend veel mensen tegenwoordig 'gelabeld' worden. Maar wat betekenen al die labels eigenlijk? Nemen ze echt toe of lijkt dat alleen maar zo? Hoe en waarom diagnosticeren psychologen en psychiaters, en wat zijn de risico's? En bovenal: worden we er uiteindelijk gelukkiger van?

"Du bist so emotional", klingt nicht nach einem Kompliment, schon gar nicht in der Arbeitswelt. Im Job zeigt man keine Gefühle, stören sie doch das Arbeitsklima. Auf einen cholerischen Chef oder die weinende Kollegin verzichtet man gerne. Doch diese Sichtweise wird den Emotionen und ihrem positiven Einfluss nicht gerecht. Und überhaupt: Emotionen werden viel zu stark unterschätzt. Sie sind wichtig, will man Entscheidungen treffen oder kreativ zu sein. Auch um empathisch zu sein und wenn man sich mit seiner ganzen Persönlichkeit im Job einbringen will, geht das nicht ohne Gefühle.
