Download or read book Healing Trauma in Children written by Sonia Kennedy and published by Australian Academic Press. This book was released on 2021-04-26 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Foster and kinship carers play a vital role in our community. Their task is not an easy one. Most children in care do not settle quickly and can become disruptive, affecting the entire family. Many carers are unprepared for the level of support and intensive focus and effort that these children need. Research tells us that children with traumatic and chaotic backgrounds have difficulty regulating their emotions. They lack the cortical capacity to efficiently process their thoughts and feelings, making it hard for them to change their behaviour to fit into their new life. Typical parenting strategies may not work. But help is at hand. This book aims to help carers understand trauma and its impact on the vulnerable child they are caring for. A carer’s role is not just parenting; it is about having the ability to teach children the skills to manage their reactions. As opposed to a text heavy on theory, this book is designed so that you can access information quickly when you need it for specific situations that arise. Most importantly, it offers detailed solutions and strategies for day-to-day emergencies as well as more long-term solutions. It is not about medication; it’s not about behaviour management plans, punishment, judgement, or diagnosis. It is about developing a carer’s awareness, kindness, compassion, patience, strength, and education. It is difficult to understand how much trauma some children have suffered. No-one can take away the traumatic experiences a child has lived through. What carers need to do is teach the child how to live with their memories and their symptoms — it is their story. Help them manage their future, so the past trauma doesn’t take over and control their life.

Book excerpt: A comprehensive and approachable guide to raising infants and toddlers with help from the stars, from journalist and astrologer Maressa Brown. Beginning with your baby’s sun sign, then diving into their whole birth chart, here’s how to use astrology to decode your little one’s personality, character traits, communication style, likes and dislikes, inspiration for happiness, and triggers for fussiness, even the best-suited books, toys, and activities. Divided into three parts—The Twelve Signs; A Guide to Your Little One’s Mind, Spirit, and Well-Being; and Parent and Child Relationships: Bonding with Your Growing Star—this book covers specifics on parenting based on your own astrological identity (an Aries parent and an Aries child will connect through competitive activities but may clash as a result of their being equally hotheaded). Best ways to foster your little one’s self-expression (art supplies are a must-have for Libras). How to boost your baby’s physical and mental well-being (a back rub before bed will be especially soothing for a tense Leo). In other words, it’s a parenting book tailored to your unique child, all based on the timeless wisdom of the zodiac.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you’re like most healers or caregivers, you’re probably highly empathic and energetically attuned—but don’t always give yourself the same level of care you provide to others.

Download or read book Place and Practice in Canadian Nursing History written by Jayne Elliott and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2009-05-01 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The close association between nurses and hospitals obscures the diversity and complexity of nursing work in other contexts. This collection looks at nurses and nursing in a wide range of settings from the mid-1800s to the 1970s, including indigenous women on the Canadian prairies; First World War nurses posted overseas; outpost nurses in rural and remote areas of Saskatchewan, Ontario, and Quebec; public health nurses in Winnipeg; and religious congregations in nursing education in New Brunswick. The contributors use feminist and historical perspectives to illustrate how place, understood as both social context and geographic setting, shaped nursing identities and practices. Many nurses found place both liberating and constraining � often simultaneously. Paying attention to place also situates these nurses and their work within larger historical themes of nation-building, war, and political change.
