Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Superar la adversidad es la asignatura pendiente del siglo XXI. Todos a lo largo de nuestra vida nos enfrentaremos a situaciones traumáticas ¿Cómo afrontarlas en positivo? ¿Cómo desarrollar una respuesta resiliente? Las personas entrevistadas en este libro constituyen la mejor demostración de cómo se puede gestionar el naufragio. Todos ellos han pasado por difíciles tempestades que la vida les ha presentado pero ninguno ha naufragado. En unos casos han superado duros procesos de enfermedad y en otros afrontado la muerte de un ser querido o se han enfrentado a momentos críticos en los que o bien salían adelante o bien perdían todo lo que hasta ese momento habían conseguido. Se trata de Larry Bensadon, Anna Ferrer, Ángel García, Rosa García, Jesús Hernández, Helena Herrero, Jesús Higueras, Sandra Ibarra, Miguel Ángel Jiménez, Pilar Muro, Sara Navarro, Carlos Pauner, Teresa Silva y Enrique Varela. Resiliencia. Gestión del naufragio ofrece una guía para sobreponernos a las dificultades, aprender de nuestros errores, superar los obstáculos y salir fortalecidos de nuestras propias experiencias. El desarrollo de la resiliencia aporta una nueva mirada esperanzadora y positiva. Y es que, como dicen los cinco autores, «los tiempos que vivimos son para las personas resilientes. No son las políticas las que nos van a sacar de la situación actual, sino aquellos que sean capaces de estar por encima de la crisis. La causa es humana y no económica, y la solución también».

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Usted y su esposa acaban de salir del consultorio del psiquiatra infantil. Todos dicen que el doctor es muy bueno. Junto con ustedes también vino Luis, su segundo hijo. El pediatra recomienda esta visita porque Luis es un niño “extraño”. A los 3 años todavía no habla y pasa todo el tiempo solo. Incluso en el jardín de niños no juega con sus compañeros y tiende a mantenerse aislado por lo que los maestros están preocupados. Ahora, el psiquiatra acaba de hacer el diagnóstico y los temores se confirman: “es un niño con Trastorno del Espectro Autista”. Muchos padres ya han tratado de todo. Otros están desesperados y no pueden ver perspectivas para el futuro; se repiten continuamente: “¿por qué yo?” Otros están luchando para entender y buscan información en internet o con algún amigo médico. No todo el mundo está dispuesto a aceptar la realidad pues es demasiado difícil. Es una peregrinación que llevará a visitar miles de especialistas, con la esperanza de encontrar a alguien que cambie el temido diagnóstico. Si usted está atravesando por esto, no se preocupe, estas reacciones son normales, pero este es sólo el comienzo de un largo viaje. Nuestro hijo con autismo intenta responder las múltiples preguntas que un padre se hace cuando su hijo ha recibido un diagnóstico de TEA. En la búsqueda de respuestas, el libro se basa en la experiencia adquirida del trabajo de casi 30 años y en el conocimiento acumulado de la comunidad científica internacional, más allá de prejuicios y estereotipos.

Download or read book M rame Los Ojos written by Melanie Fowler and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2012-05-30 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Melanie and Seth Fowler are parents of a six-year-old boy who has autism. Melanie is not only a concerned parent, but is schooled in speech therapy, deaf education, and special education. When the Fowlers found out their son was on the autism spectrum, they were like so many other young parents out therescared, angry, confused, helpless. They felt like they were on an island. While many books were given to them regarding autism, none was able to console the Fowlers in their time of grief and desperation. Immediately they realized they needed to write a book that deals with immediate steps when dealing with a child on the autism spectrum. Look at My Eyes is an insight not only into their lives but tells how to battle for insurance coverage, explains helpful, scientifically based therapies, and deals with quackery and harmful treatments. The Fowlers discuss talking with relatives about a child who is autistic, they provide helpful websites and in-home training exercises, and encourage readers to be strong in their faith and rest upon the Lord for strength, grace and mercy. Look at My Eyes has now been translated into Spanish. Both English and Spanish versions can be found at www.lookatmyeyes.com. The Fowlers live in Fort Worth, Texas, with their two children, William and Margaret and their new golden doodle, Charley Bear. For more information: [email protected]

Download or read book Overcoming Autism written by Lynn Kern Koegel, Ph.D. and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2014-03-25 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There have been huge advances in our ability to diagnose autism and in the development of effective interventions that can change children’s lives. In this extraordinary book, Lynn Kern Koegel, a leading clinician, researcher, and cofounder of the renowned Autism Research Center at the University of California at Santa Barbara, combines her cutting-edge expertise with the everyday perspectives of Claire LaZebnik, a writer whose experience with a son with autism provides a rare window into the disorder. Together, they draw on the highly effective “pivotal response” approach developed at the center to provide concrete ways of improving the symptoms of autism and the emotional struggles that surround it, while reminding readers never to lose sight of the humor that lurks in the disability’s quirkiness or the importance of enjoying your child. From the shock of diagnosis to the step-by-step work with verbal communication, social interaction, self-stimulation, meltdowns, fears, and more, the answers are here-in a book that is as warm and nurturing as it is authoritative.

Download or read book We re Not Broken written by Eric Garcia and published by Houghton Mifflin. This book was released on 2021 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book is a message from autistic people to their parents, friends, teachers, coworkers and doctors showing what life is like on the spectrum. It's also my love letter to autistic people. For too long, we have been forced to navigate a world where all the road signs are written in another language." With a reporter's eye and an insider's perspective, Eric Garcia shows what it's like to be autistic across America. Garcia began writing about autism because he was frustrated by the media's coverage of it; the myths that the disorder is caused by vaccines, the narrow portrayals of autistic people as white men working in Silicon Valley. His own life as an autistic person didn't look anything like that. He is Latino, a graduate of the University of North Carolina, and works as a journalist covering politics in Washington D.C. Garcia realized he needed to put into writing what so many autistic people have been saying for years; autism is a part of their identity, they don't need to be fixed. In We're Not Broken, Garcia uses his own life as a springboard to discuss the social and policy gaps that exist in supporting those on the spectrum. From education to healthcare, he explores how autistic people wrestle with systems that were not built with them in mind. At the same time, he shares the experiences of all types of autistic people, from those with higher support needs, to autistic people of color, to those in the LGBTQ community. In doing so, Garcia gives his community a platform to articulate their own needs, rather than having others speak for them, which has been the standard for far too long.
Download or read book Gut and Psychology Syndrome written by Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride, M.D. and published by Chelsea Green Publishing. This book was released on 2018-11-29 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride set up The Cambridge Nutrition Clinic in 1998. As a parent of a child diagnosed with learning disabilities, she is acutely aware of the difficulties facing other parents like her, and she has devoted much of her time to helping these families. She realized that nutrition played a critical role in helping children and adults to overcome their disabilities, and has pioneered the use of probiotics in this field. Her willingness to share her knowledge has resulted in her contributing to many publications, as well as presenting at numerous seminars and conferences on the subjects of learning disabilities and digestive disorders. Her book Gut and Psychology Syndrome captures her experience and knowledge, incorporating her most recent work. She believes that the link between learning disabilities, the food and drink that we take, and the condition of our digestive system is absolute, and the results of her work have supported her position on this subject. In her clinic, parents discuss all aspects of their child's condition, confident in the knowledge that they are not only talking to a professional but to a parent who has lived their experience. Her deep understanding of the challenges they face puts her advice in a class of its own.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An important component of Division TEACCH's mandate from the Department of Psychiatry of the University of North Carolina School of Medicine and the North Carolina State Legislature is to conduct research aimed toward improving the understanding of developmental disabilities such as autism and to train the professionals who will be needed to work with this challenging population.

As with the preceding books in this series entitled Current Issues in Autism, this most recent volume is based on one of these conferences. The books are not, however, simply published proceedings of conference papers.

These volumes are intended to provide the most current knowledge and professional practice available to us at this time.
Download or read book Flamin Hot written by Richard Montanez and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2021-06-15 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soon to be a Hulu feature film directed by Eva Longoria – scheduled release for Summer 2023 Read the story everyone is talking about: how a janitor struggling to put food on the table invented Flamin’ Hot Cheetos in a secret test kitchen, breaking barriers and becoming the first Latino frontline worker promoted to executive at Frito-Lay. Richard Montañez is a man who made a science out of walking through closed doors, and his success story is an empowerment manual for anyone stuck in a dead-end job or facing a system stacked against them. Having taken a job mopping floors at Frito-Lay's California factory to support his family, Montañez took his future into his own hands and created the world’s hottest snack food: Flamin’ Hot Cheetos. This bold move not only disrupted the food industry with some much-needed spice, but also shook up a corporate culture in which everyone stayed in their lane. When a top food scientist at Frito-Lay sent out a memo telling sales and marketing to kill the new product before it made it to the store shelves—jealous that someone with no formal education beyond the sixth grade could do his job—Montañez was forced to go rogue once again to save his idea. Through creative thinking, community building, and a few powerful mindset shifts, he outsmarted the naysayers who tried to get in his way. Flamin' Hot proves that you can break out of your career rut and that your present circumstances don't have to dictate your future.
