This book was released on 2019-03-20 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mindfulness for kids Did you know that, in the US alone, over 1.1 million children have been misdiagnosed with ADHD, with 800,000 of them receiving stimulant medication as a result? Brashness, tantrums and short-attention spans are every parent's nightmare. In my practice, I get a lot of parents who can't even remember the last time they've had some peace around the house, uninterrupted conversations with guests, or even a seamless family night out together, without the fits of rage coming from their otherwise little angels. Because of this, many are tempted to go to the doctor to find some kind of medication or pill that could make their troubles go away. But, is this the correct thing to do? With the growing misdiagnoses of ADD and ADHD, and the surging of pharmaceutical companies whose bottom lines depend on these diagnoses, bringing your child for testing is something parents are beginning to think twice about. My recommendation? What I and the other experts recommend is starting with behavior therapy first. Mindfulness, for an instance, has gone from being a niche spiritual practice to a scientifically-proven, cognitive-based approach to teaching your child the art of present awareness, inner peace, and happiness. This is why I have written Mindfulness for Kids. It is to provide parents with a practical guide on how to approach erratic, emotional, and ungrounded behavior from our beloved children. In Mindfulness for Kids, you will: Discover how to effortlessly and seamlessly smooth out your child's explosive emotions and aggressive behavior. Apply secret parenting techniques only experts know about. Develop strategies to help your child grow their self-esteem and social skills. Discover how food and eating habits affect your child's mood (and the types of food your child should always avoid) Learn how to become part of your child's learning process. Have at your disposal a list of effective activities and practices for your child to practice inside and outside of school. Save yourself from years of trial and error with proven activities that any parent can apply! Discover how to create your very own mindful exercises and activities tailored for your child!

In domains such as letting go of harmful habits and addictions, dealing with depression and anxiety, regulating emotions, and training cognitive function, contributors show how mindfulness-based interventions encourage and inspire change. In addition to scientific coverage, experts translate their methods and findings on mindfulness mechanisms in terms that are accessible to students and clinicians. Included in the Handbook: Mindfulness and its role in overcoming automatic mental processes Burning issues in dispositional mindfulness research Self-compassion: what it is, what it does, and how it relates to mindfulness Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy and mood disorders Mindfulness as a general ingredient of successful psychotherapy The emperor's clothes: a look behind the Western mindfulness mystique Heralding a new era of mind/brain research--and deftly explaining our enduring fascination with mindfulness in the process--the Handbook of Mindfulness and Self-Regulation will enhance the work of scholars and practitioners.

Download or read book The Zones of Regulation written by Leah M. Kuypers and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "... a curriculum geared toward helping students gain skills in consciously regulating their actions, which in turn leads to increased control and problem solving abilities. Using a cognitive behavior approach, the curriculum's learning activities are designed to help students recognize when they are in different states called "zones," with each of four zones represented by a different color. In the activities, students also learn how to use strategies or tools to stay in a zone or move from one to another. Students explore calming techniques, cognitive strategies, and sensory supports so they will have a toolbox of methods to use to move between zones. To deepen students' understanding of how to self-regulate, the lessons set out to teach students these skills: how to read others' facial expressions and recognize a broader range of emotions, perspective about how others see and react to their behavior, insight into events that trigger their less regulated states, and when and how to use tools and problem solving skills. The curriculum's learning activities are presented in 18 lessons. To reinforce the concepts being taught, each lesson includes probing questions to discuss and instructions for one or more learning activities. Many lessons offer extension activities and ways to adapt the activity for individual student needs. The curriculum also includes worksheets, other handouts, and visuals to display and share. These can be photocopied from this book or printed from the accompanying CD."--Publisher's website.
