Book excerpt: All of us enter the month of Ramadan with pain. All of us enter it with something that is missing-there is either financial constraint or a health worry, for example. There may be something that keeps us up late at night with regard to our children or our loved ones. But Ramadan is the month of therapy and closure. It is a month of re-establishment of an individual's life after a year of ups and downs in faith. For every situation, Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.) has prescribed various du'a that can be read throughout Ramadan and even after it, as a form of therapy. Ramadan Therapy is a collection of 30 du'as of the Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.) from the Qur'an and Sunnah that we can ponder, reflect upon, and more importantly, learn to apply. It is with hope and faith that positive changes can come out of this beloved month of Ramadan to those who seek it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume seeks to highlight the development of play therapy in various countries and cities in Asia. The editors discuss how mostly Western play therapy approaches are adapted for use in Asian countries. Contributors to the volume, who are experts in using play therapy to work with clients from their own cultures, offer unique discussions using a casestudy approach to integrate the theory and practice of play therapy across different Asian countries. Having existed for years in the West, play therapy is still in its early stage of development in most Asian countries including Mainland China, Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia. This is the first play therapy book written by experts from specific Asian cultures for practitioners and students who are working in the mental health field for Asian groups. Each chapter first describes play therapy development in that particular culture and then uses a case study to illustrate how play therapy can be adapted to suit specific cultural beliefs and environments in order to connect parents with their children or to address clients' needs.
