In Silence: The Psychology and the Craft for Emotional Wellbeing, the author-a psychotherapist, university professor, educator, and researcher-takes the reader into a thought-provoking and heartfelt journey. She offers original perspectives and vulnerable stories from her clients, students, and personal life. Drawing on, among others, ethnographic and autoethnographic accounts, Lehmann serves the reader with psychological insights, offering a timely, critical, and thorough viewpoint to contrast with an overload of misinformation about what silence is and how people should feel when quiet. The reader will be challenged to aspire to balance when communicating or connecting with themselves, with others, with nature, or with art, or, for some, as part of a spiritual path. Whether in nature, at work meetings, on the road, in a classroom, in the therapy room, or at the dinner table, silences appear as coordinates, and this book is the missing map for surviving and thriving when navigating toward well-being.
Olga V. Lehmann is Associate Professor in the Department of Social Studies at the University of Stavanger, Norway. She is a mental health advocate, researcher, psychotherapist, writer, coach, educator and community leader. She has published extensively about the topic of silence and edited several books, including A Poetic Language of Ageing and Writing Through Bereavement. Her popular media appearances include "Forsker Grand Prix," a Norwegian television broadcast contest for researchers, features in National Geographic, Nature Careers, and a TEDx talk with over thousands of views.
