UNA VISIÓN DIFERENTE DE LOS NIÑOS CON TDA, TDAH, TOC Y AUTISMO.

La gente tiende a funcionar desde el punto de vista de que hay algo malo en estos niños porque no aprenden como el resto de nosotros. La realidad es que aprenden las cosas de una manera totalmente diferente. Tenemos que dar un paso adelante y averiguar cómo aprenden, no tratar de enseñarles usando métodos que podrían haber funcionado para nosotros pero que definitivamente no funcionan para ellos. Qué pasaría si pudieran ser vistos como quienes son, y no como quienes no son? Qué podría cambiar eso?

Anne Maxwell, LCSW, RPT-S, es una terapeuta infantil y familiar, y una facilitadora de Access Consciousness con más de 25 años de experiencia trabajando con niños de todas las edades y orígenes, a los que se les ha dado todo tipo de diagnósticos. Anne enseña a los niños y a los padres a aprovechar y reconocer sus propias capacidades y conocimientos, y a reconocer que lo diferente es simplemente diferente; no está bien, no está mal. Como resultado, la curación y el cambio son mucho más fáciles, más efectivos, más divertidos y más rápidos!

Your genes respond to your thoughts, emotions, and beliefs. The way you use your mind shapes your brain, turning genes on and off in ways that can dramatically affect your health and wellbeing. In this best-selling, award-winning book, researcher Dawson Church reveals the exciting applications of the new science of epigenetics (epi=above, i.e., control above the level of the gene) to healing. Citing hundreds of scientific studies and telling the stories of dozens of people who have used his ideas for their own healing, he shows how you can apply these discoveries in your own life. He explains how electromagnetic energy flows in your body and affects your cells and how the new fields of energy medicine and energy psychology can help cases that are beyond the reach of conventional medicine. He shows how your hormonal, neurological, connective tissue, and neutrotransmitter systems all work in harmony to conduct a coordinated flow of information throughout your body. As you take conscious control of the process, you produce a positive effect on your health, becoming an "epigenetic engineer" of your own wellbeing. Practical and scientific, this book has transformed the lives of tens of thousands of people. This new edition is updated with the latest research and clinical breakthroughs.

Edição com nova capa

Nunca tivemos tantas maneiras de nos comunicar, e no entanto nunca faltou tanto diálogo no ambiente familiar como nos dias de hoje. Aparentemente, a comunicação via SMS, WhatsApp, Telegram, Messenger, e-mail, celulares, e o bom e "velho" telefone já não se mostram suficientes para ajudar na manutenção ou no estreitamento dos laços entre membros de uma mesma família.

Some a isso a correria frenética do dia a dia e uma agenda cheia de atividades, e está montado o cenário típico de ruído de comunicação, prejudicando um dos momentos mais importantes que se pode ter em família: a hora das refeições. A questão não é a alimentação em si, mas o compartilhamento interpessoal e o investimento nos relacionamentos que esse tempo à mesa proporciona.

Por isso, devemos saudar o trabalho competente de Devi Titus, que não apenas nos alerta sobre os perigos da comunicação deficiente em família, mas também apresenta dicas valiosas sobre como atribuir à experiência da mesa um valor de dimensões eternas.

From the psychologist and author of Gaslighting comes a practical recovery plan outlining ten foundational steps to true healing.

Surviving and escaping a toxic or abusive relationship can often only be part of the struggle. Long after, survivors often struggle to heal; your self-esteem may be damaged, you may feel rage and betrayal, and you may punish and/or blame yourself. The author of Gaslighting and specialist in toxic behavior, narcissistic abuse, and personality disorders, Dr. Stephanie Sarkis has seen it all--and she is here to help you understand how to move forward. In Healing from Toxic Relationships, Dr. Sarkis extends compassion and knowledge to survivors, helping you understand the underpinnings of toxic behavior and how to find peace.

Highlighting ten essential steps, Dr. Sarkis provides survivors with an accessible framework that can be applied to anyone preparing to heal:

1. Block or Limit Contact
2. Create Your Own Closure
3. Forgive Yourself
4. Establish Boundaries
5. Talk to a Professional
6. Practice Self-Care
7. Reconnect
8. Grieve
9. Look Outward
10. Prevent: Keeping Toxic People Away
Anyone who is in a toxic relationship--whether it's with a romantic partner, colleague, family member, or friend--deserves a way out and a path forward. Dr. Sarkis offers help and hope.
