Mental Vaccines: Knowledge to protect your mind (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781950735990)

Mental Vaccines presents 9 important aspects that we need to consider if we want to have a good and healthy emotional life. Written by Dr. Enrique Zuniga, medical doctor, psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, the book does not pretend to be scientific, but rather a practical approach to psychoanalytical therapy. The beginning of the book is crucial, because it introduces a conceptual framework of how the brain functions, integrating the psychological stages with external factors that influence everyone's life. From this original framework, Dr. Zuniga introduces the main concepts that he would use throughout the text.Written as a candid personal reflection of more than 50 years of professional experience, Dr. Zuniga explains complex concepts in simple easy-to understand terms, as he does with his real patients. He makes sense of why we feel guilty, or why we encounter relationship, work or family problems, why we find ourselves with addictions, etc. The chapter of couples is very illustrative and very task oriented; it almost feels as if we are in couple's therapy with him. At the end, he even adds his thoughts about death and dying and includes a final chapter with concrete advice for every topic or "vaccine". Dr. Zuniga finds a way to talk to his patients (and to his readers) so that they can understand their own childhood, accept it and move into their lives with less uncertainty and more courage. He portrays a wise, kind and friendly psychoanalyst that is there for you and wishes you well.
