Stop the Lecturing Start the Conversation: Increasing Your Children's Emotional Intelligence
by Susan SidsworthThis book provides specific strategies for parents, teachers and caregivers who want to enhance the emotional and intellectual intelligence of children. Parents of toddlers often feel frustrated when they cannot communicate with their children in a positive way. Parents of pre-teens and teenagers often feel that their children are "tuning" them out. Many parents resort to lecturing or shouting in order to try and break through these communication barriers. This book aims to provide parents and educators with strategies for establishing a dialogue with children so that they are truly engaged in conversation and the learning process. Establishing a dialogue with children is crucial for our children's emotional, intellectual and social growth. When we establish dialogue or two -way communications with our children we are also part of the learning equation. We have many lessons to teach our children, but our children also have many lessons to teach us. Unfortunately, many of us are trapped in a monologue style of communication. We are telling our children what they can and can not do, we are explaining the rules, we are setting boundaries and we are often not listening to our children. Perhaps you want to protest at this point and say that you do listen to your children and that you try to patiently answer all of their questions. And children are generally asking many questions of the journalistic interrogation kind - Why? Where? When How? What? The fact that children are asking these questions is an indication of their quest to understand the world and the demands that it is making on them. But simply answering a child's questions - patiently or impatiently - is not a true dialogue. A dialogue occurs when two or more people engage in conversation about a subject or a decision and takes turns asking questions and listening to responses. The ideal Socratic Method involves the asking and answering of questions in order to stimulate critical thinking. The opposite of dialogue is a monologue. One person is speaking and others are supposed to be listening. Since monologues eventually become boring and non-engaging children eventually tune out their parents monologues. Many parents will finally exclaim in frustration "Am I talking to myself?" and resort to shouting or talking in an angry tone of voice to get their children's attention. Dialogue, on the other hand, is an engagement and an exchange between two people. This book will provide specific strategies to parents, teachers and caregivers that are designed to enhance the social, emotional and spiritual growth of children and young people.

Stop vermoeidheid: Hoe je je leven terugkrijgt
by Lisa GibsonHet chronisch vermoeidheidssyndroom (CVS) is een van de vaakst gediagnosticeerde "mysterieuze" aandoeningen. Meer dan een miljoen Amerikanen lijden aan het chronisch vermoeidheidssyndroom, en dat worden er alleen maar meer. Deze ziekte treft meer mensen dan multiple sclerose, lupus, en vele soorten kanker. CVS komt vier keer vaker voor bij vrouwen dan bij mannen. Waarom neemt CVS toe? Is het een soort epidemie of is CVS een vangnetdiagnose geworden voor alle aandoeningen waarbij je last hebt van vermoeidheid en pijn, maar de dokter niks kan vinden? Een syndroom is per definitie een rijtje symptomen die systematisch gelijktijdig optreden. In werkelijkheid is chronische vermoeidheid dus geen ziekte, maar een stel symptomen. Deze symptomen kunnen ernstig, levensbedreigend en invaliderend zijn. Dus de hamvraag is: wat veroorzaakt al deze symptomen? Dieet, ziektes, omgevingsfactoren, of alle bovenstaande? Helaas heeft de gezondheidszorg meer vragen dan antwoorden. Door deze onbeantwoorde vragen blijven mensen met CVS uitzichtloos achter, en moeten zij zich neerleggen bij het feit dat ze misschien hun hele leven last zullen blijven hebben van deze invaliderende symptomen. Maar je hoeft je leven hierdoor niet te laten bepalen. Er zijn zowel traditionele als niet-traditionele behandelingen die je kunnen helpen om erachter te komen wat de onderliggende oorzaken van je symptomen zijn en hoe je deze symptomen kunt verminderen. Wat is de oplossing De beste manier om CVS te overwinnen is om erachter te komen waardoor je symptomen écht veroorzaakt worden. Dus in dit boek laat ik je het volgende zien: - Dat virussen en infecties symptomen van CVS kunnen veroorzaken - Waarop je je kunt laten onderzoeken bij de dokter - Welke veranderingen in levensstijl je kunt toepassen om je symptomen te verminderen en je leven te verbeteren - Technologische vorderingen op het gebied van de behandeling van de onderliggende oorzaken van CVS - Medicijnen, supplementen en voedings

Stopping the Noise in Your Head: The New Way to Overcome Anxiety and Worry
by Dr. Reid WilsonIf you or someone you love suffers from excessive worry, anxiety, panic, OCD, or phobias, you know how crippling it can be. Of course, worry can be an important asset when it forces our attention on problem-solving. But anxious worrying can cause us to unnecessarily focus on a threat, to retreat and avoid, and to seek reassurance and safety—which is no way to foster a life of growth and excitement. In his fifth published book, Dr. Reid Wilson proposes a groundbreaking, paradoxical approach to overcoming anxiety, worry, OCD, panic, and phobias by moving away from comfort, confidence, and security and willingly moving toward uncertainty, distress and discomfort. Through the use of unconventional strategies, readers will learn how to confront anxiety head-on and step forward into the face of threat. Drawing on a range of sources—from firefighters and fitness instructors to Sir Isaac Newton and Muhammad Ali—Stopping the Noise in Your Head: The New Way to Overcome Anxiety and Worry demonstrates the importance of shifting our perspective and stepping toward our challenges in order to regain control of our lives.

Storied Companions
by Karen DerrisA professor, mother, and Buddhist practitioner helps readers discover new ways of facing and experiencing life, death, and impermanence.&“With my diagnosis of grade IV brain cancer, I no longer observe the truth of impermanence from a critical, analytical distance. I am crashing into it, or it into me.&” Facing a terminal cancer diagnosis, Karen Derris—professor, mother, and Buddhist practitioner—turned to books. By reading ancient Buddhist stories with new questions and a new purpose—finding a way to live with her dying body—she discovers new ways to make them immediate and real. For instance, reading with her terminal prognosis, she becomes one of the four omens (the four signs of impermanence and suffering) the young Siddhartha sees in his excursions from the palace. What would it mean for her to be in the crowd, straining to see the prince with her own sick and impermanent body—to be pushed aside and out of sight by the palace minders, just as our society so often tries to brush aside anything uncomfortable, but to nonetheless be seen by the young bodhisattva? Or reading as a mother, maybe she shares something akin to what Queen Maya may have felt, knowing she was dying, giving her newborn son over to her sister&’s care? What will it mean for her own children to be motherless? She follows the knotted threads connecting Milarepa&’s angry, vengeful mother to Karen&’s own mother, who physically abused her throughout a traumatic childhood. By placing herself into these stories, she turns them from distant and static narratives into companions, and from companions into guides. Storied Companions interweaves Karen&’s memoir of her life of trauma and illness with stories from Buddhist literary traditions, sharing with the reader how she found ways to live with the reality that she won&’t live as long as she wants and needs to. Honest, powerful, and insightful, Storied Companions itself becomes an invaluable companion, guiding the reader to discover new ways of facing and experiencing life, death, and impermanence.
