The Human Climate starts with this idea: We are divided on the inside and on the outside-where we live, love, hate, or are frozen in fear.

The Human Climate starts with this idea: We are divided on the inside and on the outside-where we live, love, hate, or are frozen in fear. Unless we come to know our emotions better than we do, they will continue to control us. In this small yet provocative book, psychotherapist Carol Smaldino connects the personal with the political, the past with the present, and the individual with the global. She explores the human climate, a term she refers to as encompassing culture, assumptions, rules, mood, and the atmosphere of a given time and place. She sees addressing these elements as indispensable if we are to effectively resolve divisions related to social and global issues, and, our most intimate relationships. Smaldino shares clinical experiences, her own stories, and provides insightful reflections. The Human Climate offers us a way to face our shadows - places where we hide and try to bury (unconsciously) the parts of ourselves that we dislike. If we don't face and integrate our difficult emotions, we continue to demonize other nations, other people - even those we love and marry. In working through our resistance to change, we have the chance to access compassion and empathy.

Autorenporträt
Carol Smaldino is a practicing psychotherapist. She was a Huffington Post contributor from 2009 through 2017. A native New Yorker, she lives between Fort Collins, Colorado and Lucca, Italy. Carol values the translation of abstract concepts into usable and practical possibilities. Whether working with families or individuals or groups, she focuses on helping her clients locate what is hurting, and more deeply understand what keeps them frightened of change. Her book, The Human Climate, is the result of an ongoing quest to understand why we as people, as groups, as a nation, and more, have been stuck in polarization and blame. She helps the reader recognize his/her own contribution to any given conflict with a greater degree of honesty and acceptance. Along the way, Carol shares her discoveries--often unwanted--of her own pertinent struggles. Carol Smaldino brings to the table an approach, whether in her therapy or in her speaking with groups, that is distinctly non-dry and non-formulaic. Carol's website is www.thehumanclimate.com
