Beschreibung

'The Power of Movement in Plants' by Charles Darwin is a groundbreaking study of how plants respond to external stimuli, particularly in regards to phototropism and other types of movement. Assisted by his son Francis, Darwin uses individual plant observations to examine the general principles governing their growth and life. This book stands as the culmination of a long line of Darwin's work in studying plants. Through his research, Darwin presents evolutionary perspectives that account for changes in plant behavioral responses and how gradual modification can enable plants to adapt extensively to their environments.

    A mother, advocate, and educator shares research and personal experience in this guide to help anyone care for children dealing with PTSD. 
     
    Is it possible that the struggles you have with your child may be because he or she suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)? Once ignored, even by the medical professionals treating war veterans, PTSD is gaining global recognition as a very real and serious issue for those who have experienced traumatic events, even children.  
     
    When children experience medical illness, witness violence, or are abused, it can leave a lasting effect. According to recent studies, 50 to 60 percent of children who experience these traumas early in life may suffer from a form of PTSD, leading to issues in childhood, through adolescence, and even into adulthood. Does My Child Have PTSD? is designed for readers looking for answers about the puzzling, disturbing behaviors of children in their care.  
     
    With years of research and personal experience, Philo provides critical information to help people understand causes, symptoms, prevention, and effective diagnosis, treatment, and care for any child struggling with PTSD.  
     
    “Philo’s dramatic story will capture the reader's attention, and there’s tremendous value in her patient explanations, from a simple definition of trauma to an exploration of PTSD causes, myths, and common terminology. . . . Though occasionally heart-wrenching, the book is organized so simply and logically as to be easy to follow and digest. Each chapter ends with “reflection questions” and additional valuable resources. Philo concludes on a hopeful note, providing encouragement and reassurance for other families in similar situations.” —Publishers Weekly, Starred Review

    SAVE TIME AND MONEY BY TAKING CHARGE OF YOUR HEALTH! 
    Having treated thousands of clients over more than a decade and supervised hundreds of trained physiotherapists in one of Australia's leading health care groups, few people are better positioned to give advice on physical health and wellness than International Author and Speaker Jason Smith. Written in plain English, this unique book will change your life by combining timeproven and medically sound principles with an innovative philosophy of selfempowerment. 
    You will Discover: 
    * The secret to wellness is a lot more than being "uninjured" or pain-free 
    * Crucial health advice that doctors and therapists rarely have time to share with you 
    * The importance of physical movement to living longer and enjoying life 
    * Innovative strategies to reduce pain immediately and make a fast recovery 
    * How to assess which treatment options are best for you 
    * Proven approaches to achieving lasting results from each physiotherapy session, and not 'lose the benefits' over time 
    * How to save time and money by not becoming dependent on your practitioner 
    The Back In Motion Story - A Simple Philosophy 
    Back in Motion Health Group first emerged as a concept or desire to operate a first class physiotherapy practice which offered clients' holistic solutions, sustainable outcomes, genuine and ongoing after-care , and was altogether encapsulated in relating to people with prestige and dignity. The more traditional physiotherapy practice models observed at the time certainly did not reflect these found values or philosophies of care. Back in Motion Health Group commenced as a small practice in the home of founders, Jason and Paulina Smith, in September 1999. Their early success resulted in quick growth and by April 2000 had moved the practice from their home into more suitable commercial medical facilities.

It's possible that telling ourselves tales before bed will prevent our thoughts from going in that direction. Bedtime tales may help break that specific cycle of negative thinking by diverting our attention away from our worries and onto whatever endearing narrative - or lack thereof - we happen to be enjoying.So what are you waiting for?
