如果說格雷有五十道陰影,你有沒有想過,你的心裡有幾道陰影?
你所有的不快樂,怪別人都沒有用。
抓出陰影背後的形象,讓我們一起學習駕馭他。
面對厭世代,我們都可以自我拯救。
陰影,也是一種力量!

當遇上無法真心擁抱的負面時刻──
看到朋友在臉書曬幸福照,你突然覺得心情低落,就把他封鎖了;
最討厭突然插隊超車的駕駛,總想按喇叭來表達不滿;
上台報告後,覺得台風不夠穩健的自己好糟糕,變得好沮喪;
進入一個陌生團體,身旁的人看起來又厲害又迷人,你開始害怕……
這些,都是「情緒陰影」!

「情緒陰影」,就是讓人在情感暴雨來襲時,常常找不到傘的窘境;是阻礙我們身心能量的「情結」所在,也是我們心靈深處的「雜質」。這些無法被自我所意識到的情感經驗,原來背後,暗藏著許多我們還不夠了解自己的地方。

所以,這本書要帶領你——
覺察「情緒陰影」的存在,把它提取到意識層面反覆思考,轉化成正向的力量。

Most of us at some point in our lives will be struck by major traumas such as the sudden death of a loved one, a debilitating disease, assault, or a natural disaster. Resilience refers to the ability to 'bounce back' after encountering difficulty. This book provides a guide to building emotional, mental and physical resilience by presenting ten factors to help anyone become more resilient to life's challenges. Specific resilience factors such as facing fear, optimism, and social support are described through the experiences and personal reflections of highly resilient survivors. These survivors also describe real-life methods for practicing and benefiting from the resilience factors. As resilience is the complex product of genetic, psychological, biological, social, and spiritual factors, the authors investigate resilience from multiple scientific perspectives. They synthesize the latest literature on the topic, describe their own research on resilience, and quote from their interviews with highly resilient people.

品味人生靠自己,追求活得更有智慧的幸福人生

同樣的一生,有人活得多采多姿,有人活得黯然神傷;同樣的一天,有人過得充實美好,有人過得了無生趣。人生際遇各有不同,但是追求幸福之心並無差異。幸福的定義可能言人人殊,但是它與人的自我實現必有密切關係。

活著,就須不斷自我超越。經營充實的生活,當務之急是激發潛能、培養創意、堅定信心,才有能力在充滿變化的世局中,讓身體像行雲一般自在,心靈像流水一樣自由,活得灑脫而愉快。

電影是一扇窗,打開它,就看見更多故事,更多歷史。

《神鬼獵人》讓人想到北美印第安人與白人的毛皮貿易。《香料共和國》記錄了希臘與土耳其的食物與鄉愁。《吸特樂回來了》把戰後德國的二戰記憶拉回來。《跳舞時代》呈現日治台灣文青的感官世界。《霸王別姬》用咚咚鏘鏘的戲曲看穿近代中國。《日落真相》點出日本天皇從神到人的退位危機。

歷史不單只是讓讀者看到「過去」,歷史不是只有歷史敘事與歷史事實而已,我們還希望以電影為窗口,引導讀者進行一些有關爭議歷史問題的思辨,培養分析與理解事物的技巧。此外,還希望能讓讀者學習到,看事情不用現代的觀點,而是回到當時的脈絡,站在當時經驗與看法的「神入」(同理心)方式來看歷史。

為此,《This Way看電影》這本書, 提出二十五部電影、六大主題、四大能力, 讓我們來提煉電影裡的歷史味。
