Almási Kitti - Bagdy Emőke - Buda László - Kádár Annamária - Lukács Liza - Pál Ferenc - Piczkó Katalin: Életbátorság - Hogyan ne adjuk fel nehéz helyzetekben?
What do we do with life's difficult, trying situations? With challenges, dangers, crises, injustices, losses? What resources and tools do we have for coping with them and what does it depend on whether we are able to use them effectively or not? Do we have the courage and desire to live as we really deserve: not running away from difficulties, at the same time capable of serenity and joy. In this collection, we publish revised versions of seven lectures that were presented at the Open Academy on courage, perseverance, and coping, and which have not previously been published in print. These great authors approach the topic from different directions and in many different styles, however, the paths may eventually converge.
Al Ghaoui Hesna: Félj bátran
Why do people want the secret recipe for a fearless life? Why is everyone afraid of fear? And have I already faced all my demons?
In the past fifteen years, visiting countless war zones and peaceful terrains, I searched for answers to these questions and began to examine my fears, as a reporter, mother, half-Arabic woman, and Hungarian citizen. I realized that fear acts as a fuel that can bring out the best and the worst in us. But what does it depend on, which one it brings out in us? I searched for the answer to this question when I started on the path of mapping fear. I asked survivors of traumatic events as well as renowned researchers and world-renowned social psychologists about how fear transforms our body and soul, how it transforms our habits and behavior.
Al Ghaoui Hesna is a Prima Primissima award-winning journalist and filmmaker who, as an employee of the Hungarian Television, has reported from more than twenty countries, including many war zones. In her report series, Babel, she covered the driving forces of human behavior, and in her podcast, Bátorságlabor, she questioned psychologists about the secret recipe for coping.
