Your Mother

Your Mother

Emma Johannessen / Cecilie Ramona Kåss Furuseth

A useful and unique book about how childhood affects adulthood (and the parenting role). Are you the one who always says yes – or the one who dares to say no? Have you wondered why you react so strongly to small things? Or what truly lies behind the role you play in your family, at work, among your friends? Simply put, why have you become the way you are? The way we were met as children shapes us throughout our lives. Our upbringing influences how we are in relationships, how we handle daily work life, and how we ourselves become as parents. In Your Mother, journalist Cecilie Ramona Kåss Furuseth and clinical psychologist Emma Johannessen delve into both their own and others' stories. With warmth, humor, and honesty, they show how childhood lives on within us – and what we can do to better understand ourselves and those around us. Here you'll find insights, reflections, and practical tools that can help you break old patterns, improve relationships, and avoid passing on what you'd rather leave behind.

The Nature Effect
Narrative Non-fiction / Self Help2025 · 268 pp

The Nature Effect

Marianne Sleire Lundblad

New research shows that we are more disconnected from nature than ever before. This is despite the fact that spending time outdoors is one of the healthiest and smartest things we can do for ourselves. But what exactly are the effects nature has on us and our health? This is what Marianne Sleire Lundblad explores in this book, using her background as a psychologist, and basing the answers she finds around the four elements, earth, fire, water and air. How can a handful of soil or five minutes outside in the rain work as a happy pill? What happens to our immune system when we walk in the forest, and why does an ice plunge help with depression? How can time in front of a fire give us a deeper sense of calm, and what happens to us when we touch the soft fur of an animal? Perhaps many of the answers we are looking for to feel better - mentally, physically and socially – lie right outside our door.

Suddenly

Maud Angelica Behn / Helena Stålnacke

Det var et før. Nå er det et etter. Helena Stålnacke og Maud Angelica Behn mistet en mamma og en pappa, helt plutselig, mens de var tenåringer. De fant hverandre i sitt livs vondeste dager og ble hverandres sorgvenner og hjelpere. I boken Plutselig deler de sine personlige erfaringer og tanker om å miste noe av det aller viktigste i livet. Hvordan går du videre? Hvordan takle det altoppslukende sjokket og savnet? Hvordan kan andre være der for et ungt menneske i dyp sorg? Sammen viser de den konkrete veien de har måttet lære seg å gå selv – gjennom merkedager, sorggrupper, minner og lengsel etter alt det som aldri ble. Plutselig er deres hjertevarme kjærlighetsbrev til deg som sliter med sorg, eller som står nær noen som sørger. Det er også en åpen invitasjon til å snakke om det å oppleve tap. Boken gir et innblikk i ung sorg – og hva som betyr noe mens vi lever – og når noen dør. «Maud og Helena har skrevet en sterk, rørende og lindrende bok om å brått miste et menneske du elsker.»Psykolog Aksel Inge Sinding

The author informs, quenches the thirst for knowledge and reassures, while at the same time helping soon-to-be parents to make choices that will increase the likelihood of having a successful pregnancy. The author provides scientifically based research in the myriad of tips and advice among influencers and in the daily press. The reader gets answers to questions such as: Is there anything one should avoid doing when pregnant? Are there habits or things one can do that are particularly beneficial? Or is the result just a mix of the genes that were handed out to the growing foetus? Carlsen provides thorough explanations, and backs it all up with scientific explanations of how that could affect the body positively or negatively. Thus, the reader will be able to make the best decisions for their body and their foetus.

The Fabulous Narcissist

The Fabulous Narcissist

Espen Skorstad

The Fabulous Narcissist offers a new look at one of the personality traits we seem most focused on and fascinated by in modern times, and it explains why the self-absorbed not only cause damage to their surroundings, but also move the world along. At the beginning of the 2000s, Espen Skorstad fell upon a project that was highly unusual for a psychologist at the time. He was fresh out of university and had just started his own business, but he had neither money nor clients. A celebrity psychologist he knew took pity on him, and asked if he wanted to help choose candidates for a couple of reality TV shows. Reality TV? Was that really how he should put his six-year-long education to use? What he didn't know then was that reality and celebrity TV was about to blow up. That in a few years, the Norwegian princess Märta Louise would be attempting to flee prison for our entertainment. That science journalists would be dancing shirtless on TV. Or that a politician would find the opportunity to run his election campaign from one of our most popular reality TV shows. Without knowing it, in 2001 Skorstad wandered into narcissism’s ground zero. Twenty years later, narcissism is in focus in popular culture and media. We are fascinated by antagonists, egoists and people who treat other people poorly. We must discuss: when is narcissism damaging, and when is it not? We might even ask: when is narcissism constructive? If we cannot see the positive aspects of a personality trait, or cannot recognise them in ourselves, will we ever be able to deal with our darker sides? «Interesting, well-written and diverse about narcissism.»DAGBLADET
