Understanding The Relationship Between Psychoneuroimmunology and Childhood Trauma : Why It Matters
Childhood psychosocial stressors can impact the development of the immune system, which can then affect the development of the brain and its long-term functioning due to the two-way relationship between the immune system and the brain. Psychoneuroimmunology of early-life stress can provide a novel framework for comprehending and treating psychopathology associated with childhood trauma, based on observational human studies and experimental animal models. Remarkably, several incidents involved once-healthy people who became mentally ill despite not having any physical injuries—the so-called "railway spine."

Dignity... Between Pain and Struggle
Our question is simple : We often use the concept of dignity without thinking about its content and, strangely enough, we don't even have to think about its content and concept when we say “my dignity comes first” or “he is beneath my dignity” or “he insulted my dignity.” The intuitive clarity of the word is not enough, but its intellectual, linguistic and traditional concept, although not clearly represented, is due to the fact that ethics is generally poorly studied, We can talk about “moral dignity” as a commitment to the set of sustainable norms adopted in society, and we can also talk about “communicative dignity” as a logic of recognition of the interlocutor, and when communication is built through the idea of dignity and recognition we can talk about moral dignity and when it is said that someone is held with dignity, that is, in their representational form, they speak and think holding on to a set of symbols of cultural expression.

Taming the Inner Bully: A Guided Visualization. Content Warning.
Introduction The mind. Bully. Find somewhere comfortable where your body can feel supported. Whether it be sitting in a chair and lying on the bed or lying on the floor somewhere, you won't be disturbed. And it's important that you don't drive, cook, or use any machinery while you practice this mind bully visualization. And once you're in your quiet place, make yourself comfortable making sure your arms and legs are uncrossed and your head is comfortably supported. You might choose to close your eyes or simply look slightly downwards and let your eyes become unfocused. And now just notice your breathing. Take several normal slow breaths and notice what that feels like. And as thoughts and sounds enter your awareness, you can just notice them and let them pass without responding to them. Just let them come and let them go. That's okay. You will notice that your mind wanders. Thoughts come and go and that's okay, because it's just what our minds do. We can notice those thoughts, images, sensations and just let them pass on by as your mind lets them come so your mind can let them pass. Maybe like clouds drifting past as they go by. And each time thoughts, images or sensations come into your mind, just notice. And then quickly and gently bring your attention back to my voice and allow your mind to create its own helpful possibilities.

The Role of Empathy in Successful Talk Therapy Sessions by Psychologists such as Heidi Kling (PhD)
In talk therapy, empathy is not only a valuable skill but also a critical component that significantly influences the success of therapeutic sessions. Empathy in therapy involves the therapist's ability to understand and share the feelings of the client, creating a safe and supportive environment. This empathic connection allows clients to open up more readily, explore sensitive topics, and work through challenges with greater trust in their therapist. As therapy sessions progress, the presence of empathy can deepen the therapeutic relationship, fostering a positive and collaborative space where clients feel heard, respected, and validated.
