You can buy full access to get access to all materials or you can buy access to individual categories below. All payments are considered as one-off lifetime access payments.

What You Get With Full Access

If you purchase full access to the Personal Synthesis you will get additional bonus materials. 

The exercise toolbox

There are over a hundred exercises here. To make it easier to use them, they are grouped into four categories: understanding (as the basis); dealing with (to get from minus to zero); regulating (to maintain a zero point) and improving (moving from zero to plus). Each group of exercises has subgroups relating to yourself, your experience, your actions and your relationships.

Additional reading materials

This section consists of books, articles, online resources, short stories and novels that may be of interest to readers who would like to study some (or all) areas in greater depth. Sieving through an immense number of titles to make this selection was an enjoyable but daunting task.

Recommended films

Movies can be very inspiring. In this section you will find movie suggestions for each area. 

Wisdom and infinity

This area is not in the model and is not its summary, but it overarches the model. You can benefit from it best after you complete going through the other areas. Infinity and wisdom are together as they are two sides of the same coin.

Are the materials here different from the 1st edition of the book Personal Synthesis?

The basic structure and some fundamentals remain the same, but the content of individual areas has been substantially changed. These changes are based on the experience of running Personal Syntheses classes and programmes with the wide range of participants (secondary school pupils, university students, refugees, young offenders, as well as the general public). The materials are also made more accessible and user friendly.

If I have a specific issue where do I look?

The best starting point (particularly if you are not familiar with the materials) is the index. Go through the list and click on what grabs your attention. This will take you to one of the areas. While there, you may get an idea where else to go if you need too. Just follow your intuition.

Is there any free material?

Yes. We have provided you with couple of chapters that are free so you can peak in the material and see what it looks like.

Why call it DIY psychology manual?

We really need DIY psychology as we have to rely on ourselves more then ever, while the professional assistance is fairly limited and the formal education is still dragging its feet in this respect. 'Manual' is also a fitting term: the materials are written in a ‘no frills’ way. Each area is presented in a simple and concise way. This should enable you to easily remember and apply its content, as well as quickly find material on any specific issue when you need it.

Is it necessary to have a prior knowledge in psychology to engage with the materials?

No. The whole point of Personal Synthesis is to make what have generations of psychologists and other scholars discovered, accessible to everybody.

What do you get for one-off fee payment?

For a price of a cup of coffee (£3) you can get unlimited access to one of the four categories of your choice. If you purchase the access to the whole Personal Synthesis (all four categories) further bonus materials are available: recommended reading and films for each area in that category, the exercise toolbox and the final overarching area that is outside the map. All payments are considered as one-off lifetime access payments.
