Synopsis

"They're fine once they're here, no need to worry."
Advice from many educational professionals.
"She doesn't look autistic."
A friend's observation.
"I don't think I could even score that low."
A comment made by a professional in relation to a child's autism diagnosis.
Just some of the many things that have been said to the parents of three amazing children - Mia, George and Finley.
Follow James on his journey as a father, along with his wonderful wife Emily, as they fight for the future of their neurodiverse children. From the early years of parenthood to the present day, we see their perspectives change as they take on new roles as parent/carers.
It's a journey that impacts their children, themselves, and the people immediately around them, as they advocate in ways they didn't know were possible. From a challenging diagnosis, battles with the education system and school avoidance, through to struggling with a father's own mental health, we learn how as parents, and as a family, they start to process the past events, accept their different paths in life and begin to find their tribe.

    “An invaluable guide for all those journeying on the path to greater freedom.”—Joseph Goldstein 
    The mind can be a potent tool, used to guide extraordinary achievements, inspire good works, and incline your spiritual path toward peace and awakening. But the mind can also produce thoughts that lead to suffering. 
    Most of us have experienced thoughts running rampant and seeming to oppress or control our lives. Even the Buddha tells us that before his enlightenment, he sometimes found his mind preoccupied by thoughts connected with sensual desire, ill will, and harm. But he figured out how to respond to thoughts skillfully and developed a step-by-step approach to calm the restless mind. 
    Following the Buddha’s pragmatic approach, a beloved Insight Meditation teacher guides you through five steps for overcoming distraction and focusing the mind:Replace unwholesome thoughts with wholesome thoughts.Examine the dangers of distracting thoughts.Avoid it, ignore it, forget it.Investigate the causes of distraction.Apply determination and resolve. 
    Each chapter includes exercises and reflections to help you cultivate these five steps to deeper concentration. You’ll learn about your mind and develop your ability to direct your attention more skillfully in meditation and daily activities. And ultimately, you’ll discover for yourself how these five steps boil down to one key realization: In the moment you recognize that a thought is just a thought, you will find yourself on the path to a life of remarkable freedom.

    Balancing Life and Caregiving with Love, Loss, and Resilience in a Moving Memoir 
    In the blink of an eye, Jonathan Knaul’s world shifted from high-stakes military test flights to the intricate dance of caring for his aging mother with dementia. 
    Faced with navigating his mother’s health decline while honoring her fierce independence, Jonathan found himself unprepared for the emotional and practical challenges ahead. As a decorated military test pilot, he was accustomed to split-second decisions, but caregiving demanded a different kind of courage and skill set.

    When you’re thrust into the role of a caregiver, balancing your own life with the needs of an ailing loved one can feel overwhelmingly impossible. Final Approach is an essential read for anyone facing the responsibility of caring for aging loved ones. This heartfelt and candid read will guide you through the turbulent skies of caregiving with compassion, rich stories, and practical advice. Read Final Approach and find the support and solutions you need to care for your loved ones.
