Energy Psychology presents a comprehensive approach to healing that combines leading-edge Western bodymind psychological methods with a broad system of ancient, sacred traditions. Incorporating Dr. Mayer's integral approach called Bodymind Healing Psychotherapy, Energy Psychology draws on Chinese medicine approaches, including Qigong and acupressure self-touch; kabalistic processes; methods drawn from ancient traditions of meditation and postural initiation; and psycho-mythological storytelling techniques.Drawing on thirty years of training in Tai Chi and Qigong, Dr. Michael Mayer shows how integrating the essences of these traditions and methods can restore vitality and give the average person self-healing tools for physical and mental health. Unlike the quick-fix books on energy restoration, this book uses timetested, age-old practices from sacred traditions in combination with well-established clinical approaches. Dr. Mayer teaches readers bodymind healing methods to treat anxiety, chronic pain, addictions, hypertension, insomnia, trauma, and other prevalent conditions. Written in a clear, intelligible style, Energy Psychology includes real-life case studies that highlight the effectiveness of his techniques.

Specifically, it examines the processes that shape the adoption and adaptation of organizational practices and policies across diverse national settings; it considers the role of expatriates in the context of the headquarter-subsidiary relationship; and explores how managers negotiate their interests and activities in relation to organizational mechanisms of co-ordination and control.
Die Nutzung Globaler Satellitennavigationssysteme (GNSS) im Rahmen von Navigations- und Vermessungsaufgaben ist für die Geodäsie in den letzten Jahrzehnten zum Standard geworden. Seit vielen Jahren wird die Positionsbestimmung und die Georeferenzierung mittels GNSS auch von Anwendern aus Nachbardisziplinen regelmäßig genutzt. Zukunftssicherheit wird im GNSS-Kontext durch die etablierten GPS und GLONASS sowie die im Aufbau befindlichen GNSS Europas und Chinas gewährleistet. Neben der kontinuierlichen Modernisierung der GNSS-Infrastruktur entwickeln sich Auswertekonzepte, Dienste und Einsatzgebiete ebenfalls stetig und innovativ weiter, um den Anforderungen der Nutzer entsprechen zu können. Der vorliegende Band der DVW-Schriftenreihe trägt diesen Entwicklungen Rechnung und fasst – basierend auf den Beiträgen der Fachautoren – den aktuellen GNSS-Status und innovative Trends zusammen.
