"This is a free book. Free from ancestral prejudices. Free from the chains of heteropatriarchy. Free from the racket of the male god—yes, in lowercase—that has caused so much harm to all of us. And I say to all of us because those who do not notice it either cannot—or will not—open their eyes and face reality: From religions—and within them—the intrinsic value of women has been scorned. By action and/or omission, they have been relegated to the role of servants rather than servants of God. They have been blamed for provoking their male brothers into the sin of lust by the way ...

Desde tiempos inmemoriales, los seres humanos han buscado formas de comunicarse con aquellos que se encuentran lejos. Muchos medios han surgido, pero ninguno ha tenido el impacto y la durabilidad de las cartas. Alguien dijo con razón que se puede conocer a una persona mejor a través de las cartas que escribe que a través de los discursos que pronuncia, doy fe de que eso es cierto. La historia bíblica y secular nos proporciona evidencia de esto. Las páginas más trascendentes de la Biblia son precisamente epístolas escritas con sencillez pero sin dejar de ser profundas. De manera ...

Loving is one of the most wonderful experiences in life. Everyone desires to love and be loved. At any given moment, somewhere in the world, someone is singing a love song or expressing their feelings to the person they cherish. If this is the case, why do so many people endure disappointment and, instead of embracing the beauty of love, find themselves suffering bitterly from not experiencing it to the fullest? One of the central questions this book explores is why so many individuals become ensnared in situations that, rather than guiding them toward a lifelong partner, lead to conflicts ...

El silencio es la base fundamental sobre la cual se establece el sentido de todo aquello que no es silencio. La música, por ejemplo, no existiría sin el silencio; el lenguaje en sí mismo no sería posible sin él y por ende el pensamiento. No es este el silencio al que se refiere el Dr. Núñez en la colección de reflexiones, que constituyen la presente obra y que nos ofrece para nuestra reflexión. El silencio es peligroso, no es una obra más del Dr. Núñez, sino aquella que nos ayuda a entender el para qué y el porqué del conjunto de su obra, es muy intimista en este sentido. El ...

"Have you ever seen an artisanal fisherman plunge his hands into a river’s waters and catch a fish bare-handed? My friend, Dr. Miguel Ángel Núñez, does just that with this difficult topic he has chosen to 'fish.' He immerses himself in the complex implications of the matter of honoring relentlessly toxic parents. Like a fish in open waters, the subject is slippery—it is easier to see it pass by than to even touch it. The author did not just dare—he ventured into the depths of the subject and captured it. The reader will not have to dive into a library; Dr. Núñez, backed by a ...

Tonny Robbins, a specialist in money—yes, just as it sounds, because there are specialists for everything—is someone who became interested in the impact of saving and the implications of managing resources. He states that what people fail to realize is that, at its core, money is power. Power for what? Power to free ourselves from the bondage of financial dependence, from living paycheck to paycheck, without understanding that money is not a matter of magic. As the author of the same book says: “Success has its keys. People don’t succeed because they’re lucky; they do things ...

Todas esas ideas están en este libro, y son una invitación a que tú también, querido lector o lectora, dequiera que estés, pases por esa ...

Forgiveness allows open wounds to heal properly, and the scar left behind serves as a reminder, the memory of the event. Without forgiveness, the wound remains open for many individuals, often lasting a lifetime. This open wound continues to hurt, and over time, it fills with filth and foulness. It becomes infected, affecting the way we make decisions going forward. The absence of forgiveness is like the chains that keep a person shackled to the wall of pain. Forgiveness releases us from that wall. While we may still carry the marks on our wrists and ankles from those chains, they are ...

"Love is the deepest and truest aspect of life; only through it can any enigma in the world be solved." (Albert Möser) If you have ever asked yourself, “What does it mean to love?” you are holding the book that will help you find some answers. The author—a distinguished university professor and prolific writer—has pondered the same question and confesses: “I have written these pages with the hope that love may exist among us. I have written them because I believe in love. I am one of those who still firmly believe that utopias can become reality.” "Today, as we witness a true ...

Every story usually has dark aspects. All human beings hide some trauma or wound. This book focuses on the author who narrates his pains, his conflicts, and his difficult moments alongside a man who never knew how to be a father but was also a victim of his own circumstances.

His children, his wife, the few friends he had, and his relatives all had to learn to deal with someone who lived as if no one else existed in the universe but him and his needs. Dealing with a narcissist is a difficult and arduous task. This book is not only about ...

Cinema has the unique ability to transport us to different worlds, cultures, and time periods. It allows us to experience a wide range of emotions, from joy and laughter to sorrow and empathy. Through the lens of cinema, we can explore complex themes such as love, loss, redemption, and the human condition. Films often serve as mirrors, reflecting our own lives and experiences back at us, offering insights and perspectives that can enrich our understanding of the world and ourselves. This book aims to celebrate the art of cinema while also providing a space for reflection. Each entry is ...

Rahab, a historical figure, takes center stage in this novel, which seeks to reimagine what her life might have been like, focusing particularly on her journey of transformation. Moving from darkness to light is never easy, and it must have been even more challenging in an era when women had little to no rights. Too often, we are quick to judge the mistakes or circumstances of others, rarely pausing to consider what we ourselves might have done in similar situations. This book dares us to step into a vastly different world through the power of imagination, offering us the chance to glimpse...

This is a book of hopes. I believe in dreams. I am convinced that utopias are achievable: To love and be loved. To build a marriage. To achieve stability over time. To project oneself towards eternity in children who expand our ideals. To live the tranquility and solace that fullness grants. To feel that there is no better place in the world than our home. To experience the delights of heaven in advance, in the intimacy of our family. All these ideas are in this book, and they are an invitation for you too, dear reader, wherever you are, to go through that wonderful experience of ...

La mayoría de las personas retiene sólo entre: • Un 5 y un 10% de la comunicación hablada y escrita. • Un 25% si se utiliza un medio audiovisual. • Un 40 a 60% si participa medianamente en una actividad. • Un 80 a 90% si lo que aprende es por medio de una experiencia directa, participativa y empática. Las llamadas “dinámicas de grupo” son en la práctica actividades no pasivas de aprendizaje. No están pensadas para “entretener”, como si ese fuera el fin último de las experiencias de enseñanza-aprendizaje a las que se ven sometidas las personas. En una buena dinámica...

There is violence that is not talked about. They remain hidden under stereotypes and fear, in the shadow of irrationality and senselessness. We know about them but hardly whisper about them. It is as if stopping to talk about their existence would bring them to life or their explicit recognition would imply understanding that they are present. Their denial is one of the ways we have to live with daily violence. One of these “violences” that is hardly mentioned, but which affects millions of people is psychological violence, also called “moral violence”, which leaves wounds that do ...

La maledicencia, como la palabra lo dice es una “maldición”, es “mal” y “decir”, en otras palabras, hablar mal de otros. La invitación de este libro es hacia el “benedecir”, es decir, practicar la “benedicencia”, aprender a hablar bien de otros, y no convertirnos en expandidores de rumores, calumnias, mentiras, difamaciones y bulos varios. Un libro para entender que el problema de la maledicencia, no es menor ni es pasajero. El Dr. Miguel Ángel Núñez, es terapeuta especializado en parejas y familias, mediador familiar, y escritor. Atiende su consulta privada y ...

La palabra “básico” tiene varias connotaciones. Una de ellas es considerar algo como mínimo, pero no en términos positivos, sino desde una perspectiva negativa, como cuando le decimos a una persona “este es demasiado básico”, de una manera peyorativa. Si, ese es un sentido posible, pero no es el que le damos en este texto. Cuando en este libro pensamos en “básico”, hablamos de “base”, de los mínimos denominadores desde los cuáles deberíamos partir para poder entender un mensaje o un concepto. Puede sonar como arrogante querer reducir la sexualidad a 10 conceptos “...

The word pass is very close to the word weigh, to the act of putting something on the scales. One does not spend time well without knowing its weight, the meaning that each one is capable of adding to it. Not making good use of it is a cause of regret. Time is the element common to both the builders of life and to those who watch it pass by undisturbed. It is the most precious intangible value that enriches rich and poor alike. As the hours go by, it is the product of those who make time have weight, not weight. It has weight to know how to differ, because like life itself, the truth, ...

La palabra pasar está muy cerca a la palabra pesar, del acto de poner algo sobre la balanza. No se pasa bien el tiempo sin saber su peso, el significado que cada quien es capaz de agregarle. No aprovecharlo bien es causa de pesar. El tiempo es el elemento común tanto a los constructores de la vida como a quienes la ven pasar sin inmutarse. Es el valor intangible más preciado que enriquece a ricos como a pobres por igual. Al pasar las horas es producto de quien hace que el tiempo tenga peso, no pesar. Tiene peso saber diferir, porque como la vida misma, la verdad, cualquiera que ésta sea...
