Word associations consist of reading words and the person must respond with the first word that comes to mind. I played a version of word association during elementary school following the basic rule but never viewed it as a psychodynamic therapy. This experience, however, was the first time I viewed word association in a therapeutic format. I did not know what to expect and did not know what type of meaning word association gives. I was hesitant at the beginning of the process because word…

This chapter from Paranormal America is dedicated to discussing what the paranormal is and how to define it. The authors begin the chapter by explaining the difficulty in naming the phenomenon of the paranormal. The list is seemingly endless and diverse, which includes the words such as: “supernatural,” “metaphysics,” “pseudoscience,” and “New Age” (Bader, Mencken, and Baker, pg. 20). The definitions of these words are not concrete and are often used interchangeably. People would make the…

Descartes uses his reflection on the piece of wax as a way to argue what our senses and imagination lack. Descartes’ argument is that our senses and imagination lack the ability to grasp the extendibility, flexibility, and changeability of wax, specifically in his explanation, but more generally any body “we touch and see” (30). Ones intellect is the only thing that can perceive the nature of a body, such as the wax. The observation of the wax from the original state to the state after being…

You still have not quite grasped the essence of what is being said. YOU WOULD BE FOUND. There is nothing to wrap your physical mind around, so do not listen with your thinking mind only.

It is not that you cannot understand this that is the problem, but the desire to understand it all, this is the point. To let things be, in their present and perfect NOW. Listen with you feeling, for…

Several minutes later, we begin to relax hand muscles. We transfer our full atten- tion to the right arm and imagine it is heavy, very heavy. We focus on our fingers and "summon” them one by one. We summon the index finger and then we move it. Then we do the same with the middle finger, the ring finger, the little finger, and, finally, the thumb. We summon each finger individually and then we move it. After this, we slowly direct our attention upwards, to the hand, the wrist, the forearm,…

A Few Pointers Before you embark on this book, become very aware of the voice in your head ☹ and the whisper in your heart ☺ We all hear it, every day rambling on, especially when we want to relax and shut down for a while. Have you noticed how you can be watching TV or reading a book and if questioned about the content, you have no real idea what the story is about. You have drifted off hand in hand with that voice in your head, while it rambles on about all sorts. It’s very efficient at…

Descartes decides to take a piece of wax and examines it. He examines the essential qualities of the wax for to see what to smell is the texture, the shape, and its color. This is something as simple as learning how to use one sense to examine objects. So, when he melts the wax it changes the physical state of the wax. Descartes discussion with the piece of wax becomes to the realization of that the wax can change. After melting the wax, the substance does not keep the same qualities in which he…

While contemplating my fourth journal, thoughts of how this multiculturalism class has addressed my effectiveness as a future counselor with culturally diverse clients remain in the forefront of my mind. By tackling issues such as microagressions in a clinical setting and their impact on a client and the effects of class bound values in today’s conventional models of counseling, I am able to reflect on my self-awareness and personal growth. My development is evident as I analyze my existing…
