Download or read book Dare Your Fear written by Melk Joe and published by . This book was released on 2020-12-24 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fear is a sense induced by perceived risk or threat occurring in different individuals, which in turn causes a significant change in metabolic and body functions and thence, eventually brings about a substantial difference in behaviour, such as fleeing, hiding, or getting very cold from perceived traumatic occasions. Fear in humans might occur in response to a specific stimulus. It could also be as a result of the expectation of another threat regarded as a risk to body or life. "Worries response" comes from the belief of danger; resulting in a confrontation with or get away from/staying away from the threat (also called the fight-or-flight response), which in acute cases of Dread (horror and terror) can be considered a freeze response or paralysis. In humans and animals, fear is modulated by the procedure of cognition and learning. Thus, Dread is judged as rational or appropriate and irrational or improper. An irrational Dread is named a phobia. Psychologists such as Steve B. Watson, Robert Plutchik, and Paul Ekman have recommended that there surely is only a little group of fundamental or innate feelings, and that panic is one of these. This hypothesized situation includes emotions such as severe stress response, anger, angst, stress, fright, horror, pleasure, anxiety, and sadness. Dread is carefully related to but should be recognized from the feelings of panic, which occurs as the consequence of threats that are understood to be uncontrollable or inevitable. "Worries response" serves success by engendering appropriate behavioural reactions, so that it has been preserved throughout development. Sociological and organizational research also shows that individuals' worries aren't solely reliant on their character but are also shaped by their interpersonal relationships and culture, which guide their knowledge of when and exactly how much dread to feel.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The most helpful book on childhood anxiety I have ever read.”—Michael Thompson, Ph.D. Whether it’s the monster in the closet or the fear that arises from new social situations, school, or sports, anxiety can be especially challenging and maddening for children. And since anxiety has a mind of its own, logic and reassurance often fail, leaving parents increasingly frustrated about how to help. Now Lawrence J. Cohen, Ph.D., the author of Playful Parenting, provides a special set of tools to handle childhood anxiety. Offering simple, effective strategies that build connection through fun, play, and empathy, Dr. Cohen helps parents • start from a place of warmth, compassion, and understanding • teach children the basics of the body’s “security system”: alert, alarm, assessment, and all clear. • promote tolerance of uncertainty and discomfort by finding the balance between outright avoidance and “white-knuckling” through a fear • find lighthearted ways to release tension in the moment, labeling stressful emotions on a child-friendly scale • tackle their own anxieties so they can stay calm when a child is distressed • bring children out of their anxious thoughts and into their bodies by using relaxation, breathing, writing, drawing, and playful roughhousing With this insightful resource of easy-to-implement solutions and strategies, you and your child can experience the opposite of worry, anxiety, and fear and embrace connection, trust, and joy. Praise for The Opposite of Worry “The Opposite of Worry is an informative resource for parents and other family members. The book is easy to read, comprehensive and notable for its many practical suggestions.”—New England Psychologist “Good advice for parents making daily calls to the pediatrician . . . Anxiety is a full-body sport, and Cohen’s main advice is not to treat it with words but with actions. . . .

Intended for parents of children ages 3 to 15, this book offers anecdotes and fun anti-anxiety games.”—Publishers Weekly “Here’s the help parents of anxious children have been looking for! Dr. Cohen’s genius is in the warm and generous spirit of the strategies he outlines for parents. He grounds his playful approach in a sound explanation of how anxiety affects children, and how they heal. Parents will come away with plenty of ideas to help them develop their children’s confidence. While reading, I found myself thinking, ‘I’d like to try that for myself!’”—Patty Wipfler, founder and program director, Hand in Hand Parenting “If you want to understand your child’s anxiety—and your own parental worries—you must read Larry Cohen’s brilliant book, The Opposite of Worry. Dr. Cohen is one of the most imaginative and thoughtful psychologists you will ever encounter. He explains how and why children become anxious and then shows how we can use empathy and play to help them escape from the terrifying dark corners of childhood.”—Michael Thompson, Ph.D. “The Opposite of Worry offers a treasure trove of ideas to help children feel confident and secure.
