Download or read book Nature Is Nurture written by Megan E. Delaney and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2020 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Humans have long interacted with the nature world, from foraging and hunting for food to more recently, finding solace and peace in a beautiful vista. Our connection to nature runs deep in our DNA, yet our modern world has humans indoors almost 93% of the day. There is growing evidence that being in nature provides a healing elixir for physical and mental ailments. In fact, some physicians are "prescribing nature" for relief of patient's ailments. Ecotherapy, a growing but lesser known construct in mental health, describes the reciprocal relationship humans have with nature and the capacity of that relationship to build strength and provide healing. This book provides an overview of the theoretical constructs of Ecotherapy highlighting historical considerations and recent research within the discipline. Perspectives, examples and reflections are provided through the author's own experience as a former wilderness therapist and current Ecotherapist and counselor educator. Chapters include practical ways to incorporate Ecotherapy with children and adults, within schools settings, in group work and with veteran populations. Descriptions of other Ecotherapy modalities are also included, such as animal-assisted, equine-assisted, horticultural, forest bathing, green exercise and adventure based therapy. There is chapter devoted to designing an Ecotherapy course within a counseling program and finally, a chapter describing ways that a therapist can "become" an Ecotherapist. Case examples, techniques and practical and ethical considerations are provided throughout. To bring the content to life, several contributors offer stories, reflections and experiences with nature are a partner in the therapeutic relationship"--

Download or read book The 10 Minute Meditation written by Anisa Poteet and published by . This book was released on 2019-11-06 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Daily meditation will help ground and connect you physically, emotionally, and spiritually. In this short-read book, The 10 Minute Meditation, I share with you the meditation practice that I developed and personally practice each day. Meditating can be very challenging without some guidance, direction, and focus. With this particular meditation, you will use the 10 minutes to focus on grounding yourself physically in the moment, learn to recognize and acknowledge your emotions, and discover your blessings. This is a great way to begin your day and although it is just one small step toward connecting with yourself, it will begin to change your perspective over time. I recommend not using it as a band aid to try to quick fix something, but as an accessory to further adorn the beauty already within you. I believe that we all desire to find more peace, more tranquility, more relaxation and more joy in our daily lives. I also believe that it is easier to find these things when we are intentional about looking for them. Daily meditation is just one way to be intentional. The beauty of this practice is that is can be done quickly, therefore, it is easy to fit into your schedule and can even be done multiple times in the day and anywhere you find yourself needing a little grounding and reconnection. I invite you to give The 10 Minute Meditation a try and begin your journey to connecting to yourself and being present in the moment.

Download or read book Living in the Moment written by Anna Black and published by Ryland Peters & Small. This book was released on 2014-02-21 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most of us operate on auto-pilot much of the time, passing through the present moment with our mind either caught up in the past or straining toward the future. Through mindfulness meditation, an ancient Buddhist practice, Anna Black shows you how to intentionally pay attention to your daily experience. When we are not being mindful, we miss out on small moments that often are the most valuable be it a beautiful building that we pass on our journey to work, the taste and texture of lovingly prepared food, or the fact that we are needed by those we love the most. By being mindless we miss opportunities for personal growth by not being aware of our shortcomings or our inner strength, or by letting negative thoughts and emotions control us.In mindfulness meditation we pay attention to our ongoing experience whether it is pleasant such as appreciating a starry night sky; unpleasant a disagreement with a loved one; or neutral doing chores. We become aware of our habitual thoughts and behaviours and discover which are helpful and which are not. We learn to listen to the body and pick up warning signs of stress as well as tune in to our inner wisdom. Packed with short and simple meditations, this book can be used by all people, in all walks of life and at any time.Anna Black is a highly qualified mindfulness practitioner, who teaches mindfulness workshops. She has a Masters in Mindfulness-based Approaches to Health and has completed the Advanced Teacher Development Intensive run by teachers from the North Wales Centre for Mindfulness and from the Center for Mindfulness at the University of Massachusetts Hospital, USA. She has an established personal practice in mindfulness and meditation (www.mindfulness-meditation-now.com) and supervises other mindfulness teachers.
