Download or read book It s Never Too Late to Sleep Train written by Craig Canapari, MD and published by Rodale Books. This book was released on 2019-05-07 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a leading pediatric sleep physician comes a revolutionary program that will have everyone in the house sleeping through the night. When Dr. Craig Canapari became a father, he realized that all his years of 36-hour hospital shifts didn't even come close to preparing him for the sleep deprivation that comes with parenthood. The difference is that parents don’t get a break—it’s hard to know if there’s a night of uninterrupted sleep anywhere in the foreseeable future. Sleepless nights for kids mean sleepless nights for the rest of the family—and a grumpy group around the breakfast table in the morning. In It's Never Too Late to Sleep Train, Canapari helps parents harness the power of habit to chart a clear path to high-quality sleep for their children. The result is a streamlined two-step sleep training plan that focuses on cues and consequences, the two elements that shape all habits and that take on special importance when it comes to kids’ bedtime routines. Dr. Canapari distills years of clinical research and experience to make sleep training simple and stress-free. Even if you’ve been told that you’ve missed the optimal "window" for sleep training, Dr. Canapari is here to prove that it's never too late, whether your child is 6 months or 6 years old. He's on your side in the battle against bedtime, and with his advice, parents and children alike can expect a lifetime of healthy sleep.

This book was released on 2014-10-07 with total page 523 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Marcia and I were married September 30, 1994, and were together nineteen years and four days when she passed away October 2013. She was diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer's in 2000, when she was only forty-nine years of age. I was Marcia's 24-7 caregiver from 2007 until her passing. This was the second marriage for us both, and we were a textbook example of how a happy life together should be. We lived in a small community on Lake Oliver, directly across the lake from Columbus, Georgia. I am retired and am writing this book based on the personal experience of having watched the thirteen years of progression of Alzheimer's disease and how it changed a beautiful, vibrant lady to the shell of what she once was when she passed from this earth. Having to watch someone you love dearly die a day at a time, with the only thing that can be done is keeping them comfortable, is a very excruciating experience, and hopefully, reading our journey through this progression will help others who have a loved one with this disease understand what the future holds for them and their loved one"--Page 4 of cover.

Download or read book Cheap Meat written by Deborah B. Gewertz and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Gewertz and Errington unpack the aspirations and anxieties, calculations and controversies that inhabit an inexpensive cut of fatty meat. Following the trail of sheep bellies from slaughterhouses in Australia and New Zealand to the plates of Pacific Islanders, they evenhandedly map the divergent perspectives of commercial traders, government officials, and ordinary consumers acting within a contested material and moral economy. Cheap Meat provides a startling view of how global food markets fashion the bodies and identities of people everywhere."--Robert J. Foster, author of Coca-Globalization: Following Soft Drinks from New York to New Guinea "Cheap Meat is a compelling example of how ethnography concerned with Oceania can elucidate broader questions in anthropology and the social sciences in general. Gewertz and Errington show the complexity of globalization by focusing on the most unlikely commodity. This work at once demonstrates how unfettered capitalism is able to use global circulation to literally convert one person's trash to another's treasure and how resilient Pacific Islanders refashion Western commodities to their own ends."--Paige West, Curator for the Pacific American Museum of Natural History

People are looking for answers, guidance, and wants to know if anyone else has experienced a tragedy similar to their own. A Peace After Grief reaches out to those who grieve, dealing with existent issues readers can relate to such as death of a parent, child, spouse, student, sibling, and an array of others. The uniqueness of Tristan Watson's A Peace After Grief is not only that it is written in a sensitive manner, but it also reveals the rawest form of emotion and grief felt by those who suffer a loss. An exemption from death is not possible, and for those who have experienced the devastation and tragedy of losing someone, A Peace After Grief is a must read. This collection of stories is a first step for those who still need to center their grief and try to come to a place of acceptance. Though the pain and grief may be hard to bear, it is possible to receive a peace after grief.

Download or read book Only A Game After All written by Susan Katrinka Butler and published by Strategic Book Publishing & Rights Agency. This book was released on 2016-06-07 with total page 854 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sarah Franklin needs to get her brain cells aligned. Not because of some broken love affair, though that would have been fun if she could remember such a thing. Sarah has just woken up from a coma, and the young woman is convinced she’s still in high school. Bill Petrov is a professor of physics at her new school. No way was he looking for a lover, but he is smitten with Sarah the first day of school. He knows better than to be attracted to a high school student, yet there’s something different about her. She reacts differently than other students, is totally serious, and absorbs everything in class. When they talk, she teases Bill, offering innuendo or suggestions that totally take him off guard. Analyzing their conversations later, he realizes her words are out of sync with today’s teenage lingo and are more like those of a colleague than a student. The paradox only increases his fascination with her. He looks forward to seeing Sarah every day, exchanging a smile, or wondering what she’ll say next to unnerve him. Sarah is totally unprepared for the onset of her feelings toward her teacher, yet she still looks forward to her physics class without any understanding of why it makes her so happy. Will Sarah remember her past, and what will happen when … if she does?
