Download or read book Adhd or Dyslexia Resilient Parents Resilient Children written by Katharine Aranda Vollmer and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2018-11-01 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is written with all my love to share what I, from my own experience, have had to live as a mother, teacher and Davis® facilitator. As I listen to other parents tell me about their journeys through therapies, doctors and diagnoses, I realize how much the stories and concerns coincide when one of our children begins to have learning difficulties, be it attention deficit, dyslexia, dyscalculia, dysgraphia, hyperactivity, or ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder). As parents, we want to help them, however, the fact of having educational knowledge or even being an expert in the subject does not exempt us from being completely in hands of doctors, therapists, teachers and school directors, and be subject to their guidance.

Download or read book La Grandeza De Pensar Distinto written by Alfredo Cendejas and published by Alfredo Cendejas. This book was released on 2024-02-26 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En este viaje personal y revelador, el autor nos invita a adentrarnos en el corazón de una vida vivida al margen de las convenciones, a través de un prisma único: el Trastorno por Déficit de Atención e Hiperactividad (TDAH). Lejos de ser un impedimento, el TDAH se revela como una ventana a un mundo de posibilidades infinitas, donde los límites convencionales se difuminan y dan paso a un espectro más amplio de experiencias y aprendizajes. El libro se despliega a través de seis capítulos, cada uno dedicado a derribar mitos, enfrentar prejuicios y abrir nuevos caminos de autoaceptación y realización personal. Desde aprender a fluir con la diversidad de atención y no contra ella, hasta explorar la inexistencia de límites más allá de los que nos imponemos, el autor comparte con franqueza y humor sus estrategias para navegar la vida de manera auténtica y exitosa. "Deja de forzarte a poner atención a una sola cosa" desafía la noción tradicional de concentración, proponiendo en su lugar una armonía con el caos creativo. "Conoce tus límites - no los tienes" y "Busca una base algo que te regrese al mundo real" nos guían a través del poder de conocerse a sí mismo y encontrar anclas emocionales y prácticas en un mundo que a menudo parece ajeno. "El fin justifica los medios" reflexiona sobre la moralidad de nuestras acciones y la importancia de mantenerse fiel a uno mismo, mientras que "Noción del tiempo" y "Egocentrismos mejor que decadencia" exploran la percepción social del TDAH, el miedo a lo desconocido y la importancia de la autoestima frente a la incomprensión. Este libro no es solo una autobiografía o un manual de cómo vivir con TDAH; es una invitación a todos, independientemente de sus batallas personales, a abrazar sus diferencias, a reconocer su valor único y a vivir una vida sin disculpas. A través de sus páginas, el autor nos ofrece no solo su historia, sino también su corazón, mostrándonos que lo que algunos consideran una desventaja, puede ser, de hecho, la fuente de nuestra mayor fortaleza.

Download or read book Vivir con TDAH written by Jessica McCabe and published by ALBA Editorial. This book was released on 2024-04-03 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jessica McCabe, diagnosticada a los doce años con déficit de atención, luchaba contra un cerebro que no entendía. Perdía cosas constantemente, no podía terminar proyectos y sentía que se esforzaba más que los demás niños mientras se quedaba cada vez más atrás. A los treinta y dos años, divorciada, sin dinero y viviendo con su madre, decidió analizar profundamente las dificultades y los desafíos de su trastorno. Para ello se acercó a expertos en la materia, leyó multitud de artículos y compartió todos sus descubri-mientos en su canal de YouTube (How to ADHD), que actualmente cuenta con más de un millón y medio de suscriptores y es un referente para la comunidad TDAH de todo el mundo. Vivir con TDAH es el resultado de la investigación de McCabe y de su experiencia personal. En este manual desmonta mitos y ofrece una mirada desenfadada, clara y sincera de cómo este trastorno, a veces infravalorado, afecta seriamente a la vida cotidiana de las personas que lo padecen. Aborda aspectos como las alteraciones de las funciones ejecutivas, la sensibilidad al rechazo, las dificultades para regular la atención y mucho más. Además, aporta estrategias específicas que las personas con TDAH pueden adaptar a su entorno: • Aumenta la señal y disminuye el ruido. Para facilitar la concentración coloca tus objetivos donde puedas verlos y combate las distracciones con distracciones. • Tener menos cosas que gestionar. Descubre por qué tienes problemas para planificar y priorizar, y por qué hacer más comienza con hacer menos. • Desarrolla tu «sabiduría del tiempo». Trabaja hacia atrás cuando planifiques y haz un seguimiento de cuánto tiempo te lleva realmente hacer algo. • Aprende sobre tus emociones. Nombrar tus emociones y permitirte experimentarlas puede hacer que sea más fácil regularlas.

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 Divergent Mind written by Jenara Nerenberg and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2020-03-24 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AUDIBLE EDITOR'S PICK A paradigm-shifting study of neurodivergent women—those with ADHD, autism, synesthesia, high sensitivity, and sensory processing disorder—exploring why these traits are overlooked in women and how society benefits from allowing their unique strengths to flourish. As a successful Harvard and Berkeley-educated writer, entrepreneur, and devoted mother, Jenara Nerenberg was shocked to discover that her “symptoms”--only ever labeled as anxiety-- were considered autistic and ADHD. Being a journalist, she dove into the research and uncovered neurodiversity—a framework that moves away from pathologizing “abnormal” versus “normal” brains and instead recognizes the vast diversity of our mental makeups. When it comes to women, sensory processing differences are often overlooked, masked, or mistaken for something else entirely. Between a flawed system that focuses on diagnosing younger, male populations, and the fact that girls are conditioned from a young age to blend in and conform to gender expectations, women often don’t learn about their neurological differences until they are adults, if at all. As a result, potentially millions live with undiagnosed or misdiagnosed neurodivergences, and the misidentification leads to depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and shame. Meanwhile, we all miss out on the gifts their neurodivergent minds have to offer. Divergent Mind is a long-overdue, much-needed answer for women who have a deep sense that they are “different.” Sharing real stories from women with high sensitivity, ADHD, autism, misophonia, dyslexia, SPD and more, Nerenberg explores how these brain variances present differently in women and dispels widely-held misconceptions (for example, it’s not that autistic people lack sensitivity and empathy, they have an overwhelming excess of it). Nerenberg also offers us a path forward, describing practical changes in how we communicate, how we design our surroundings, and how we can better support divergent minds. When we allow our wide variety of brain makeups to flourish, we create a better tomorrow for us all.

What if everything is the opposite of what it appears to be? What if you could employ and enjoy your insanity (and that of the people around you?) and create more ease for you and others - if you had the tools to change this reality's point of view about mental illness, would you use them?
