Traumatology of love


Author: Vladimir Levi.

This Russian psychologist has proven himself well in such literature. Many people know his books on psychology. This book helps you find out what roles are assigned to each partner in a love relationship. What men think about love and what women think.

Also, after reading the book, it will become clear what mistakes are made in relationships, what traumas love causes to hearts, and how they can be healed. The information presented in the book will be useful for all ages and genders.

“Psychology of emotions. I know how you feel”, P. Ekman

We constantly experience some kind of emotion: we are afraid, happy, sad or angry. We clumsily try to hide them, and sometimes we think that at one glance we understand the feelings of another, but we are often mistaken.

The author explains how to catch the hidden signals that the interlocutor gives through facial expressions and gestures, and how to control and correct your own when necessary.

The ability to recognize emotions in yourself and others is the basis of mutual understanding between people and the opportunity to make your life more comfortable.

Larisa Milova

Even the most insignificant, barely noticeable changes in facial expressions - be it the position of the eyebrows and eyelids or folds in the corners of the eyes - matter. They are the ones who indicate whether a person is afraid or simply surprised, upset about something or tired and wants to sleep.

For clarity, the book is illustrated with photographs and examples. On the last pages there is an emotion recognition test to consolidate what you have learned.

Harmful psychological literature

Slag . And I believe without evidence that it is harmful. The author imposes a vision of the world, but not a constructive one. Anti-propaganda.

I practiced a couple of “protocols” for clearing mental debris. But I felt like a strange type who, instead of solving problems, programs himself “not to see them.” Instead of cleaning the room, the technician sweeps all the garbage under the sofa. It’s even more difficult to remove from, and it stinks no less. Like everything “fast and effective”, it only puts blinders on.

Later I learned that there are also paid “protocols” for cleaning garbage. Imagine if Jesus were a coach, half a sentence for free: “Love your neighbor like <buy for $50>.”

Here again we look at interests, but without the desire to manipulate - it is unknown who will pay for all this. Interests at this age: sex (due to lack of experience), BPAN (or an analogue way of self-expression through an inexpensive car), money (due to exorbitant ambitions with a constant lack of funds for their implementation). So:

  • Igor Kon, “Sexual culture in Russia: strawberry on a birch tree.” Excerpts in free interpretation: “Once one of the most popular sex positions, allowing a man to dominate a woman to the maximum and strongly approved in the territory of Ancient Rus' and other patriarchal states, today is repeatedly criticized by representatives of both sexes. Well, feminism has reached unprecedented heights and, to some extent, has penetrated into the male consciousness.
  • In contrast to the previous sexual position, this position, on the contrary, can oppress men who have not been imbued with all the charms of feminism and matriarchal reality. In the position of the woman on top, the latter finds herself in a dominant position, and for such pleasures in Ancient Rus' they could be sentenced to up to ten years of repentance.
  • Yes, I almost forgot - in the old days, you could be excommunicated from the church for practicing such a pose.”
  • Igor Skripnik, “Do-it-yourself car tuning.”
  • Uspenskaya E., “Anthropology of the Indian caste.”
