The Simplest Psychotherapy in the World – Maggie Schauer (Rowohlt)
Renowned psychotraumatologist Maggie Schauer knows how many people are traumatized even in seemingly peaceful environments: through domestic violence, sexual and emotional abuse, rejection and exclusion, serious illnesses, or other difficult events that pile up over the course of a lifetime. Thus, in many lives, stressful events intertwine with trauma and experiences of loss long before people become ill, before they need help, or before they become perpetrators of violence—because they themselves had to endure violence as children—because trauma is passed down through generations.

Feeling Better – Leon Windscheid – Rowohlt Polaris

Windscheid explores questions such as whether fear also has a positive side, whether eternal love exists, and why we actually need boredom. He shows what makes strong emotions like grief and anger particularly valuable and how they help us as human beings. In the end, we gain a new understanding of ourselves and come to realize why feeling can be our greatest strength. ClickHERE for the book!
