Produktbeschreibung
"Smokescreen may initially present itself as a program to quit smoking and does so in in way that addresses the reader personally and effectively. Included is a vast array of motivational ideas and operational techniques that integrate Jewish philosophy and current psychological approaches. Almost immediately, the book expands into an approach to living and values that elevate a cessation manual on smoking into a journey of awareness and potential for living a meaningful life. All the golden insights of Judaism and psychology synthesize into a guidebook for personal effectiveness and significance. To one with no background or a limited understanding of Judaism, Smokescreen presents a brilliant, understandable, sweet awareness of the Jewish perspective of values, ideas and richly woven stories that have been the guiding principles of morality and purposeful to mankind for the past 3,500 years. To one well-versed in Jewish thought, everything comes together as to both a practical guide and a thrilling experience and reawakening into the sheer grandeur of G-d's creation. To one with little focus on the psychological aspects of life events, Smokescreen is the book that explains, with a taste of honey, the human mind in a way that encourages and permits management of life's challenges. To one who has a background in psychological thought, Smokescreen brings together the various facets of the human mind, especially in the workings of the conscious and unconscious processes that direct human action and aspiration. All together, the writers, with a lovingness and kindness in their words, create a wonderful book that defines Jewish psychology. Anyone, at any age or level of learning, will be enriched and well the wiser by being engaged in this gift of insight. The smoker will have effective tools to desist the grip of the addiction. The non-smoker will have a guide to dealing with other negative patterns of habit. All who take in the contents of Smokescreen will derive the benefit of experiencing the finest examples of awareness of the human condition and Jewish wisdom coming together into one beautifully crafted book." --Rabbi Donald T. Stein, JD, PhD, Psychologist, Morristown, NJ
