Virtual addiction is, like all addictions, first and foremost an attempt to find a SOLUTION by a patient, faced with a problem in their relationship to the world, to others or to themselves. This attempt at a solution, not being the best, becomes a PROBLEM in a second step.Very often, the solution can emerge from the problem if it is well identified, via systemic modelling (modelling of the relationship between the individual and the relational system that surrounds him). So, the questioning techniques specific to systemists and so-called “brief” therapists and hypnotic techniques (including HTSMA, EMDR) are an excellent means by which a therapist can help treat his patient.We see in the clinical illustration above that starting from the external screen to which the child is addicted and repatriating it inside oneself, and making it a "psychic working screen", will be able to quickly improve the symptoms.

Virginia Woolf and Being-in-the-world: A Heideggerian Study explores Woolf’s treatment of the relationship between self and world from a phenomenological-existential perspective. This study presents a timely and compelling interpretation of Virginia Woolf’s textual treatment of the relationship between self and world from the perspective of the philosophy of Martin Heidegger. Drawing on Woolf’s novels, essays, reviews, letters, diary entries, short stories, and memoirs, the book explores the political and the ontological, as the individual’s connection to the world comes to be defined by an involvement and engagement that is always already situated within a particular physical, societal, and historical context. Emma Simone argues that at the heart of what it means to be an individual making his or her way in the world, the perspectives of Woolf and Heidegger are founded upon certain shared concerns, including the sustained critique of Cartesian dualism, particularly the resultant binary oppositions of subject and object, and self and Other; the understanding that the individual is a temporal being; an emphasis upon intersubjective relations insofar as Being-in-the-world is defined by Being-with-Others; and a consistent emphasis upon average everydayness as both determinative and representative of the individual’s relationship to and with the world.

[In the writings of Orthodox theologian Paul Evdokimov (1901–1970), Western theology can find new resources regarding the relationship between gender and moral development. The author presents Evdokimov's unique theological anthropology in the context of both the complicated question of gender, as well as the effects that gender has on the way women and men act. While the goal of the Christian life for both is the transformation of the individual through asceticism, the role each plays in the salvation of the world differs markedly.]

The psychiatric reform that took place in Brazil carries characteristics of other movements that occurred in other parts of the world. The idea common to all movements is the struggle for the rights of the individual in mental suffering, seeking mainly the rupture of the mental model. These changes led to several transformations in the care scenario, for all professions directly linked to the patient. Nursing in turn has experienced and experiences significant changes in the provision of care. The aim of this study is to talk about nursing care for patients affected by mental disorder, making a temporal analysis of how this care occurred and how it presents itself in the current mental health conjuncture. The methodology is of the literature review type, which occurred through research in the databases BIREME, Lilacs, Scielo, BDENF and VHL. For this, the descriptors: nursing care for people with disorders were selected; nursing care for patients with mental disorders. In view of the results, it was evidenced that nurses are an important part of caring for patients with mental disorders, noting that these make up a multidisciplinary team and highlighting that care goes far beyond just caring for the patient, but that it consists mainly in the relationship with the patient's family, in bonding, in the work that aims at social reintegration and often also the family reinsertion of the individual. Profession that needs to undergo constant updates, but has experienced numerous transformations throughout this period of Reformation.

This introduction considers the ‘environmental turn’ taken in the humanities, and particularly in historical study, suggesting ways in which these developments might animate the future study of nineteenth-century Ireland. Question of agency and the relationship between human and non-human nature are addressed. Also considered is how current environmental concerns, and climate change in particular, should lead us to think anew about the past, rendering familiar subjects unfamiliar. Particular attention is paid to how Ireland’s past might be located within larger global processes, attracting the interest of scholars from throughout the world. It then introduces the individual contributions in the volume, tracing a narrative thread through them in order to demonstrate how a change in optic can significantly change how we think about Ireland’s recent past.

This article analyzes the formative power of the Korean dawn prayer service to better understand the public and private dimensions of Christian spirituality. It explores the origin of the dawn prayer in the history of Korean Protestantism, and examines an example from a particular church. On the basis of this exploration, it is argued that the dawn prayer service should not be understood as an instrument to strengthen individual spirituality, but rather as a place to participate in God’s redemptive work to and for the world. Both the individual and communal aspects of dawn prayer practice are important, but I will argue that current Korean practice leans too much toward the individual.

The article considers the conceptualization of the world from the point of view of its methodological paradigm assessment in the context of the globalizing world. A retrospective analysis of the relationship between language and human speech activity is given. The authors explain the role of language as a socio-cultural phenomenon in the formation of worldview systems that develop in the consciousness with the help of minimal units of human experience in their ideal meaningful representation in special concepts, which allows the individual to think within the boundaries of a certain linguistic picture of the world. Analyzes the problems of the functioning of communicative norms with regard to the hierarchy of the spiritual representations of the world. The article attempts to consider the impact of the “blurring” of the information boundaries of the globalizing world on the cognitive abilities of the individual in the nomination, qualification of the subject, phenomenon, process.

Abstract Introduction. The snatch technique is a discipline in Olympic weightlifting. The lifter has to raise the barbell from the platform directly above their head in one movement. While reviewing the literature on biomechanical analysis of the techniques of weightlifting, one can find positions on the analysis of parameters, such as barbell track, horizontal displacement, and angular positions of the joints in the individual phases of the lifter's movement. Many texts concern female and male lifters taking part in World or European Championships. The parameters of the best competitors are outlined - mostly those who finish in the top five places in competition. Mostly these are parameters regarding male lifters, and less frequently those of female lifters. In the literature review, an overlooked aspect is that of the definition of the diversity of indicators as regards the snatch technique practiced by female lifters depending on score. Material and methods. In the research, registered snatch attempts during the World Championship were used. Videos were used by judges to establish a maximum weight limit for female lifters. The attempts were registered by two cameras and were later digitally processed by the APAS 2000 system. Barbell parameters, maximum speed, average of the bar, and the parameters of the lifter-bar collocation (horizontal displacement of barbell weights and height elevation) were assessed. Results. The analysed attempts show the margin of error for measurement of the average speed of the barbell as 0.03 m/s. The difference in maximum speed of analysed attempts is 15%. The height of clearance of the first-placed female lifter's barbell was 12.7 cm, 30 cm for the last-placed. Conclusions. The sporting level of weightlifting by female lifters influences the analysed biomechanical indicators of the snatch. Those indicators, which are similar in the case of both the World Championship winner and the female lifter who came last, may be described as the average speeds of the barbell. The high sporting level of female lifters performing heavy lifting is characterized by the clearance of the barbell.

Humanism as a principle for sustainable development of society, a model for the management of education and public education, is recognized as a fundamental principle by proponents of various schools of thought, social science, management and philosophy, and pedagogy. In their view, the philosophy of education and upbringing should clearly delineate the range of humanistic and moral values, define the social institutions designed to form an orientation towards these values, justify the relationship between the individual and the social qualities of the individual that could contribute to the “spirit of democracy” in society. However, addressing these important issues requires an exploration of morality identifying its nature, its functions in cognizing the world, and how it differs from other forms of cognition. According to the proponents of this socially-oriented direction of the management and educational philosophy, an important aim of education and upbringing is to develop the individual’s ability to reflect on moral topics; and this, they argue, is achieved mainly through the “language of morality” logic.

The purpose of this paper is to report, from a qualitative study, the individual and organizational factors andprocesses that lead an employee to build a unique relationship to is health. We discuss these processes in relationto the construction of health among a sample of 34 „workers” selected in diverse contexts, considering health asa dynamic and co-constructed object. From biographical interviews and records of interactions between workersand professionals who support them, we analyze we analyze the transactions made between work and health.These transactions, which are defined in dynamic and combined processes (psychological, cognitive, interactiveand organizational), contribute to define the orientation of the relationship to work, the professional route, anddetermine the evolution of more objective health status and how it can be seen, lived and managed individually.This article examines three different contexts: small business employees, employees of a large firm, and job seekers.These three contexts are related with different types of strategies implemented by individuals on their healthin relation to their position in the world of work.

When we look back on the history of the world, the term “New Normal” has been employed concerning World War I, the global financial crisis of 2007 -2008, the September 11 attacks in the United States, and the global recession of 2008 -2012. Still, this term has never powerfully shocked our hearts. The COVID-19 pandemic has been changing human life since 2020. People gradually move away from everyday life and progressively walk into the “New Normal” life. However, the life of “New Normal” is full of uncertainty. The uncertainty may come from the different variants of the COVID-19 virus, and it may come from the resetting of the global economy. In the “New Normal” life, more and more companies go bankrupt and are about to face bankruptcy. Even though some companies do not want to default, but it has been hard to survive nowadays. Until now, it is hard to know if the “New Normal” life is a brief time in this long history of the world or the “New Normal” life will be a permanent state. Anyway, the “New Normal” factors of “New Normal” life have provided opportunities to force the world to eliminate outdated technologies, eliminate the backward enterprises, reorganize the business framework of companies, optimize the industrial structure, strengthen human resources, re-set the world economy, reorganize the business relationship of the world. History always moves forward according to its natural developmental trend, and no force can resist the law of the development of things. Still, also no power can resist people to pursue a better life. Individuals, groups, regions, and countries are connected based on the relationship between the individual and country is the relationship between the individual and the larger society. In addition, the relationship between the individual and the world is the relationship between the individual and the human organization. Therefore, individuals, groups, regions, and countries must look forward and keep a positive mindset to adopting the “New Normal” factorsin the “New Normal” life. As we can see, many companies are adopting “New Normal” factors, and some are expanding their business network and further towards corporate sustainability despite this COVID-19 pandemic making the challenging situation in this business world. The main research question of this study is “What are the “New Normal” factors that have a significant effect on corporate sustainability?” In this study, eight independent variables including Working from home (W.H), Workforce transformation (R.W), Digital transformation (D.T), Technological transformation (T.N), Psychological effect (P.C), Uncertainty (U.C), Consumer behavioral change (C.N), Government policy (G.V), and one dependent variable Corporate adjustment (C.S) is the studied. This study aims to understand the structural relationship among these potential variables that could influence corporate sustainability in the “New Normal” life. The dataset utilized to test the hypothesis postulated in this study is the Structural Equation Model (SEM). The results from this study suggests that Technological transformation, Uncertainty, Consumer behavioral change, Digital transformation, and Government policy significantly affect corporate sustainability in the “New Normal” life. Considering different politics, economy, and cultural backgrounds in countries and industries, we also found that some irreconcilable factors affect technological transformation, uncertainty, consumer behavioral change, digital transformation, and government policy. Finally, this study identified technological transformation, uncertainty, consumer behavioral change, digital transformation, and government policy as significant factors that affect corporate sustainability. Therefore, this study provides some valuable suggestions for all companies to better adapt to the business market in the “New Normal” time. In addition, this study also provides some evidence and ideas for researchers to explore corporate sustainability in the “New Normal” time and post-COVID-19.
