holding pattern relationships: Holding Pattern Karen Buzzard, 2001 Buzzard offers a new and strong theoretical paradigm for intimacy, which does not assume, as does the older view, that intimacy is a process that unfolds naturally and automatically. She develops the critical paradigms of affectional, ethical and authentic communication and explains these patterns through interpretative readings of the life history of individuals, providing a framework for understanding midlife intimacy problems. Using psychological theories of life history analysis, she arrives at a novel picture of how our intimacy styles are shaped. |

holding pattern relationships: The Love Lies Debrena Jackson Gandy, 2014-09-15 Foreword by Actress Kim Coles. The U.S. boasts the highest divorce rate of any country in the world and some of the highest relationship dissatisfaction rates. Yet, despite the endless amounts of advice and experts available to us, we continue to experience increasing levels of frustration, conflict, emotional breakdown, and failure in our relationships. What are we missing? What continues to elude us? What is inherently wrong with our understanding of what makes love relationships work? Debrena Jackson Gandy, two-time national best-selling author and founder of The Love Academy addresses these questions and the root causes of this massive breakdown in relationships in our country. Most of the advice and models given to American women only address the symptoms of this epidemic, usually applying simplified how-to techniques that tend to lead to more confusion than resolution. These are band-aids, and ineffective ones at that. The Love Lies delves deeper to unearth ten toxic beliefs that have been instilled in women since pre-school, influencing us through a wide range of ages and trapping us all in a web of illusions. These powerful Love Lies manipulate perceptions, create delusions and perpetuate behaviors that unknowingly sabotage our relationships. The Love Lies sets women free from chronic cycles of dissatisfaction and disappointment and offers a proven process to dismantle the lies, heal the mind and heart, and transform the American relationship paradigm forever. |

holding pattern relationships: To Have and To Hurt Angela Brownemiller Ph.D., 2007-08-30 Every year, nearly 2 million injuries and some 1,300 deaths result from so-called intimate partner violence. In this work, psychotherapist Browne-Miller uses vignettes, as well as standing and emerging research, to detail both healthy and hurtful relationships and to show partners how to recognize and change relationships on, or headed toward, the path to abuse. She also explains when to leave a relationship, as well as how to do that so as to disentangle without further harm. This is a book that will interest not only those involved in, or who know of someone who is or might be involved in, an abusive relationship, but also students and scholars of psychology, counseling, social work, women's studies, and men's studies. When Cathy and John married 20 years ago, the relationship seemed almost charmed. But over the years as John's career became more established and Cathy raised the family of three children, things changed. First angry fights developed, followed by verbal and gestured threats of violence, and later, actual physical attacks and injuries. Several times Cathy called police, but when they arrived, fearing the social stigma as well as John's retribution, she would explain her injuries as dealt out by a prowler. When friends or family asked, she would claim the cuts or bruises were due to a fall or some other accident. But eventually, when her arm had been broken, a tooth knocked out, and her face bruised so badly she could not cover it up with makeup, she finally left the house and her husband—only to be stalked. Cathy and John are one couple that Angela Browne-Miller introduces us to in this book that looks at the increasingly publicized incidence of intimate partner violence, abuse that takes place behind closed doors, inside marriages and other loving relationships. Only a fraction of this abuse is ever reported, so just a fragment of the problem is reflected in national statistics that show nearly 2 million injuries and some 1,300 deaths annually caused by this so-called intimate partner violence. In this work, Browne-Miller uses vignettes, as well as standing and emerging research, to help us recognize the difference between a relationship being effected by normal stressors, and one that is abusive, or perhaps even deadly. Psychotherapist Browne-Miller details both healthy and hurtful relationships and shows partners how to recognize and change relationships on, or headed down, the path to abuse. And she also explains when we should leave a relationship, as well as how to do that to disentangle without further harm. This is a book that will interest not only lay readers who are involved in, or know of someone who is or might be involved in, an abusive relationship, but also students and scholars of psychology, counseling, social work, women's studies, and men's studies. |

This book offers a variety of ways to understand our basic human blueprint and neuro-biological wiring, and how your original environment deeply affects the beliefs you come to have about so many aspects of yourself, others, and life.

holding pattern relationships: Meaningful Relationships Steve Duck, 1994-05-11 Meaningful Relationships challenges the reader to step off traditional academic pathways in the pursuit of understanding the nature of human relationships and plunge into this most important theoretical advance in the field to date. The author, Steve Duck, argues that relationships are never done deals but, rather, are continually unfolding and in need of perpetual responsive action and construction. Central to this discussion is the author's contention that relationships are solidly based in the recognition of shared meaning discovered in the way we metaphorically represent the world to ourselves and to others through everyday talk and symbols. Theories presented in Meaningful Relationships do not unfold in a sequential manner but rather are approached from different angles showing simultaneous relationships in different contexts. An outstanding addition to the Sage Series on Close Relationships, this book is stimulating in its novel approach and will be of interest to scholars and students in close relationships, psychology, interpersonal communication, sociology, family studies, and social work. |

How can you access your potential and create The Good Life? GET TO GOOD shows you how to access personal alignment using profound lifestyle conditioning for accelerated abundance. With this book as your guide, you will be able to get out of your own way, get off it and Get to Good. Once you know how to access your personal alignment, you will begin to experience more of the good life, as defined by you. Jacqueline invites you to Get to Good, allowing your potential to come out and play today. Why not take the shortcut to abundance and feel good now? What are you waiting for? Permission granted! Do you ever wonder why some days are better than others? Think having the good life is really coincidence, luck and favoritism? As the fortuneteller of your life, you get whatever you think about whether you want it or not. A belief or mantra is a conditioned thought; what have you been thinking lately? Does it serve you? If you continue to tell the story of what is then you cannot give your attention to what you want. Your current state of affairs does not have to be your consistent reality. Reality is nothing more than what is currently occupying your mind and captivating your attention. When you give attention to your desires and feel good now before the evidence of your desires show up, you end up taking the shortcut to the good life. The only reason you do not choose to Get to Good now is because you give more attention to your sophisticated excuses than your potential. With a little bit of practice and insight, you will find yourself choosing alignment for the pure sake of alignment. The intention behind Get to Good is personal alignment for accelerated abundance in every area of your life. Take a moment to imagine the possibilities of you being aligned in your spirit, health, finances, relationships, career and purpose in life. You are going to read it, hear it, say, think and see it abundantly so it becomes a mantra for life: Get to Good! |
holding pattern relationships: It's My Life Now Meg Kennedy Dugan, Roger R. Hock, 2013-08-21 Those who have never experienced an abusive or violent relationship often believe that upon finding a way out, victims’ difficulties are solved: their life is good, they are safe, and recovery will be swift.

It’s My Life Now offers readers the practical guidance, emotional reassurance, and psychological awareness that survivors of relationship abuse and domestic violence need to heal and reclaim their lives after leaving their abusers.

Now, in the second edition, Dugan and Hock include updated information and resources while encompassing a wider range of individuals and the relationships in which abuse and violence occur. The new edition also provides a new emphasis on safety assessment, which has increasingly been shown to be a critical factor in recovery. In addition, this new edition includes current resources and information about organizations for victims along with revised and enhanced strategies to help survivors move forward on the path of recovery. |

holding pattern relationships: What's Love Got to Do With It Dr. John Chirban, 2012-06-04 Having trouble talking to your kids about sex? Their friends at school don't... Unfortunately, for many parents, the most important conversations are the hardest. Ninety-three percent of adults are dissatisfied with the sex education they received as children, which is precisely why they are so bad at teaching their kids-they have no frame of reference. Renowned Harvard Medical School psychologist and frequent Dr. Phil guest John Chirban helps parents talk to their kids . . . about sex. Kids are going to learn about sex, and it is up to parents to decide if their kids are going to learn from them or from MTV. How parents address sex—their openness, the context, and their attitudes—will impact how their children view their own sexuality and self worth. Dr. Chirban helps parents know when, how, and how much. He uses humor, compassion, and real-life examples to prepare parents for a healthy and ongoing conversation that will equip their kids to own their own sexuality and an understanding of the larger issues of relationships, love, commitment, and intimacy. In addition, parents understand how helping their children understand these veiled yet critical keys of a fulfilling life deepens their own connection with their children. |
