Download or read book Confident Parents Confident Kids written by Jennifer S. Miller and published by Fair Winds Press. This book was released on 2019-11-05 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Confident Parents, Confident Kids lays out an approach for helping parents—and the kids they love—hone their emotional intelligence so that they can make wise choices, connect and communicate well with others (even when patience is thin), and become socially conscious and confident human beings. How do we raise a happy, confident kid? And how can we be confident that our parenting is preparing our child for success? Our confidence develops from understanding and having a mastery over our emotions (aka emotional intelligence)—and helping our children do the same. Like learning to play a musical instrument, we can fine-tune our ability to skillfully react to those crazy, wonderful, big feelings that naturally arise from our child’s constant growth and changes, moving from chaos to harmony. We want our children to trust that they can conquer any challenge with hard work and persistence; that they can love boundlessly; that they will find their unique sense of purpose; and they will act wisely in a complex world. This book shows you how. With author and educator Jennifer Miller as your supportive guide, you'll learn: the lies we’ve been told about emotions, how they shape our choices, and how we can reshape our parenting decisions in better alignment with our deepest values. how to identify the temperaments your child was born with so you can support those tendencies rather than fight them. how to align your biggest hopes and dreams for your kids with specific skills that can be practiced, along with new research to support those powerful connections. about each age and stage your child goes through and the range of learning opportunities available. how to identify and manage those big emotions (that only the parenting process can bring out in us!) and how to model emotional intelligence for your children. how to deal with the emotions and influences of your choir—the many outside individuals and communities who directly impact your child’s life, including school, the digital world, extended family, neighbors, and friends. Raising confident, centered, happy kids—while feeling the same way about yourself—is possible with Confident Parents, Confident Kids.

Download or read book Love s Touch written by Anit Arca and published by Anit Arca. This book was released on 2022-04-10 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is the world an illusion? Is our Universe a hologram? This is a magical world. “All there Is” is you; you are the magnificent reflection of “All That Is” in the world of Existence and three dimensions. Let us wake up from this illusion. We have to realize we will leave this body one day; we have to realize all of our possessions will be left behind as we depart for our next new adventure. This is not a book of divine informative revelation. These words do not come from heaven. These writings (knowledge) arose in the Heart through Universal Intuition and were written from Oneself to oneself without the interference of the author’s personal thoughts (ego). What you call ‘I’ is your identity. Bonding yourself with your identity creates the ‘I am’ ego personality. This identity of yours is not actually you, it is an illusory state of what you are not. In Reality, you are not your ego-identity. The external world and its social parameters play a big role in forming this ego-identity. You do not own anything, no name, no form or any image that you can call ’I’. You have not constructed or created these. You do not own anything you think you can control or possess. When you identify yourself with these things, the things that you are not (or do not own), you are creating a self-imposed prison for yourself and living inside of it. In other words, you create your ‘ego-personality. In this case, we have to ask the following question - who am I Really? Are you really all that you claim to own, names, forms and images? Are you only made up of body and mind? When you identify with these beliefs and those of the collective world consciousness you get lost and break away from your true Reality. When you claim ownership of these names, forms and images, you create your ‘ego-personality. Whenever you say ‘I am’ this or that, you are identifying with that thing which you now claim as your own and you unify yourself with that thing. If you do not identify with anything, if you do not claim ownership of anything, the ‘I’ ceases to exist. Removing the ‘I’, dissolving it, is the ultimate freedom we seek. The walls of the self-imposed prison of ego personality you possessively created will fall away. Here, in this liberated state of being, the necessity for choice or decision falls away too. You act just as is needed in each moment of life as it arises in the Now. Thoughts of “should I have done this or that?” will disappear. The mind is like software running on a computer. The “virus” that corrupts the software is the ego. It is this ego-personality that creates erroneous beliefs and then claims ownership of them. Only when this virus is removed by an antivirus program, Mind reveals itself in its full capacity. With this cleaning up process, human minds become increasingly liberated and expansively intelligent. In this Book, knowledge of advanced life is being released into the public publishing domain for the first time. This life can be described with concepts of “Absolute Human”, “Birth of Absolute Humanity”, “Experiencing Non-Existence” and “Beyond Non-Existence”. We believe through our life experience that the only way to change our individual and collective point of view is to know NON-EXISTENCE. The will behind the writing and publishing of this knowledge in the Book arose in servitude.

Download or read book Perfect Me written by Heather Widdows and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-02-25 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How looking beautiful has become a moral imperative in today's worldThe demand to be beautiful is increasingly important in today's visual and virtual culture. Rightly or wrongly, being perfect has become an ethical ideal to live by, and according to which we judge ourselves good or bad, a success or a failure. Perfect Me explores the changing nature of the beauty ideal, showing how it is more dominant, more demanding, and more global than ever before.Heather Widdows argues that our perception of the self is changing. More and more, we locate the self in the body--not just our actual, flawed bodies but our transforming and imagined ones. As this happens, we further embrace the beauty ideal. Nobody is firm enough, thin enough, smooth enough, or buff enough-not without significant effort and cosmetic intervention. And as more demanding practices become the norm, more will be required of us, and the beauty ideal will be harder and harder to resist.If you have ever felt the urge to "make the best of yourself" or worried that you were "letting yourself go," this book explains why. Perfect Me examines how the beauty ideal has come to define how we see ourselves and others and how we structure our daily practices-and how it enthralls us with promises of the good life that are dubious at best. Perfect Me demonstrates that we must first recognize the ethical nature of the beauty ideal if we are ever to address its harms.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Osho speaks in many of his talks on health as a more holistic understanding of the “BodyMindSpirit” complex. His depth of insights into what makes a healthy and whole human being plus the many meditation methods he has developed are a vital part of his overall vision and proposal to humanity. Although he never gave a series of talks specifically about health issues, he requested and titled this collection of selected material “From Medication to Meditation” which was subsequently compiled under the supervision of his personal physician. In the foreword, which is a talk by Osho given to the Medical Association in India, he paints his vision of a healthier and more whole future when he says “…every hospital will have a department of meditation. It should happen. Then we will be able to treat man as a whole. The body will be taken care of by the doctors, the mind by the psychologists, and the soul by meditation. “The day the hospitals accept man as a whole, as a totality, and then treat him as such, will be a day of rejoicing for mankind.” - Osho
