  A groundbreaking new resource for treating eating disorders. 
   
   
   
  Effective eating disorder treatment modalities for adults continue to elude practitioners, and the rates of eating disorder relapse remain staggeringly high. Meanwhile, a vital resource for people with eating disorders remains unexplored: their romantic relationships. 
   
   
   
  Tapping into this largely ignored vein of support, Gottman-RED (Relationships with Eating Disorders) is a new therapy for couples in which one or both partners have an eating disorder. Built upon a foundation of traditional Gottman Method Couples Therapy interventions, Gottman-RED adds fourteen new interventions designed specifically to help couples address difficult issues related to food, weight, body image, and exercise. These interventions encourage conversations characterized by empathetic engagement in which both partners are heard. 
   
   
   
  This highly versatile therapy is the culmination of Dr. Kim Lampson's thirty years of working as a counseling psychologist with both couples and individuals with eating disorders. It offers a crucial, missing piece in the puzzling world of eating disorder treatment modalities.

  This book contains two titles, which are: 
  · Deforestation: Forests are among the Earth’s most precious resources, spanning vast landscapes and serving as critical lifelines for countless species, including humanity. Their towering trees and dense undergrowth form a complex ecosystem that sustains biodiversity, provides essential resources, and regulates the natural processes that make life possible. Yet, beneath this quiet resilience, forests face an ongoing crisis. The relentless clearing of these vital ecosystems, known as deforestation, has become one of the greatest threats to our planet’s delicate balance.  
  · Pollution: Pollution is a pervasive and urgent global issue that affects every corner of the planet, from the air we breathe to the water we drink and the land we depend on for survival. Over the past century, the rapid pace of industrialization, urbanization, and population growth has contributed significantly to environmental degradation. What was once seen as the price of progress has now become a formidable challenge that threatens the health of humans, animals, and ecosystems alike.

  Finding Genius: Homeschooling:...

  Homeschooling your children can be a compelling experience that will shape them in powerful and lasting ways. It’s a choice that allows you to create a learning environment where your children feel safe, respected, encouraged, and valued. It also allows them to explore their interests more deeply while enabling you to introduce them to subjects of your choosing and safeguard them from the biases of the public school system. 
  They will reliably receive the one-on-one attention they deserve, which means they’ll never feel left behind or too far ahead (and aimless or bored as a result).  
  With scheduling flexibility comes the freedom to take your kids on vacations where and when you want to, as well as ensure they get the quantity and quality of sleep essential to healthy development, energy levels, and overall well-being.  
  For these reasons (and even more not covered in this book), I can confidently say that homeschooling is a vastly superior option for most people.  
  If you’re undecided about the best decision for your family, know that you want to homeschool but are feeling intimidated, or want to learn more about the benefits of the homeschooling lifestyle, I wholeheartedly encourage you to keep learning and researching.  
  Remember that when it comes to homeschooling, what’s right for your family might not be for another… the lessons, topics, schedule, and style are yours to choose; they can be tailored to meet the needs, goals, and beliefs of your beautifully unique family.
