Baseball is our national pastime. It evokes passion and teaches us about life—about taking charge, about winning and losing, and about playing the best game we can. Judaism is a way of life, a way of viewing the world, and maximizing our time here. It teaches us about self-actualization, relationships, hardships, and achieving true success. It is a system for personal growth. This newly revised and supplemented edition of the  definitive classic on the lessons of baseball, Judaism, and life, by Rabbi Yisroel Roll (also a psychotherapist, inspirational speaker, and lawyer) is now supplemented with 38 additional pages of text, all but 4 written by Rabbi Aaron Reichel (also a lawyer and former editor).

<p>We are awake but not "Woke." We go through the motions but are not truly "conscious." This book will ignite your soul and helps you "StayWoke." Instead of allowing the force of gravity to pull you down into depression, master therapist, Yisroel Roll, guides you through the seven step process to living consciously. He has included a research study on the effectiveness of this method, called Conscious Therapy, and how it reduces anxiety. The author suggests that Conscious Therapy is the "Theory of Everything" in psychotherapy because it is an all-encompassing experiential therapeutic approach which teaches us about the formation of selfhood and the components of "self," namely our mind, feelings and actions. The feelings are the central, driving force of personality, and Conscious Therapy guides us to make a "conscious choice" between reacting with an instinctive, impulsive body response, or, reacting with a mind-based, thoughtful, cognitive response. Conscious Therapy helps us access the "self" or "I," in order to direct the "me," and to react to the crisis or challenge in a conscious, healthy manner, thus reducing anxiety that is usually associated with dealing with stressful situations.The book includes a research study which examines the impact of Conscious Therapy on clients suffering from Generalized Anxiety Disorder. A sample of 30 clients who are suffering from Generalized Anxiety Disorder were selected to receive bi-weekly sessions of Conscious Therapy, which is explained in this book, over a period of five months, for a total of ten sessions. For data collection the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A) and the Rosenberg Self-esteem Scale were used. The results indicated that those individuals who performed the weekly homework of Conscious Therapy during and between therapy sessions, reduced their self-reported anxiety symptoms by 3-81%. Those individuals who did not perform the weekly Conscious Therapy homework did not reduce their anxiety symptoms.The major findings of the study were that adherence to Conscious Therapy program, which is fully developed in this book, which is designed to increase "consciousness" and "StayingWoke," was a predictor of reduced anxiety and better interpersonal functioning. Consciousness of an individual's cognitive, emotional and behavioral dimensions, leads to "StayingWoke" and "selfhood." When a client discovers a sense of "self," she can more readily cope with and handle a presenting challenge, by marshalling her cognitive, emotional and behavioral strengths to solve or to cope with the challenge; this reduces the anxiety attendant upon the stressful process of dealing with a psychosocial stressor.</p>
