Your Happy Child: A Parent's Guide to Mindfulness
EASY and FUN activities to do with your child (aged 3–11) to encourage MINDFULNESS. Mindfulness helps children FOCUS, become more RESILIENT, CALM their emotions, and experience greater JOY. Helping children to be more mindful is a powerful gift: they will learn valuable lifelong skills, such as how to recognize and manage their emotions, how to calm down when they are upset, how to concentrate on important tasks, and how to interact with others with empathy and generosity. These fundamental skills often aren’t taught explicitly—frequently we demand that children “pay attention” or “calm down,” without showing them how to do so. Now parents can, with help from mindfulness expert Sarah Rudell Beach. Easy-to-follow activities and games cover several mindful actions—Soothe, Focus, Feel, Pause, Appreciate, and Connect—with helpful variations for different age groups and “emergency how-tos” for particularly stressful moments. Advice for parents on how to become more mindful themselves is also included, so that they can more efficiently teach and demonstrate these techniques.

Mi jár a kiskamasz fejében?
Vajon mit gondol kiskamasz korú gyerekünk, aki hol bezárkózik, hol kritikus megjegyzéseket tesz ránk, és egyre kevésbé ad a véleményünkre?
A Mi jár a kiskamasz fejében? a legfrissebb kutatásokat alapul véve tárja fel a megváltozott viselkedés mögött álló okokat, és olyan módszereket kínál, amelyek segítenek kapcsolódni gyermekünkhöz, és támogatni őt ebben az átmeneti időszakban.
75 hétköznapi helyzeten keresztül mutatja meg, hogyan kezelhetjük például az iskolai szorongást, a testképpel kapcsolatos problémákat, a kortársaknak való megfelelés vágyát vagy az online biztonság kérdését. Praktikus tanácsait megfogadva hatékonyabban kommunikálhatunk és harmonikusabban élhetünk együtt 8 és 12 év közötti gyermekünkkel.
Ha megértjük a kiskamasz érzéseit és gondolatait, és elfogadó környezetet teremtünk számára, nemcsak kiegyensúlyozottabb és boldogabb lesz, de szülőként mi is felkészültebben nézhetünk majd szembe a kamaszkor későbbi kihívásaival.

Twelve Golden Gifts: a memoir for those who love the writing of Joan Didion, Ann Patchett or Anne Tyler
How a mother's wisdom and grace helped one family come to terms with her dementia. Chrisoula had long been known for frying up honeyed Greek donuts anytime a guest arrived on her doorstep, offering a listening ear and sage advice, and sending her loved ones home with a plate of the golden orbs. She had cheeky blue eyes, a ready laugh and a generous heart - all of which had helped her deal with the many adversities she faced in her life. When she was diagnosed with dementia, Chrisoula drew on her trademark humour and earthy wit to ask the only questions that mattered: What would be the best photo to have on her gravestone? Did the glittering gold dress she wanted to be buried in need to be ironed? And would it hurt to enter the wormhole of deat? s Chrisoula's dementia progressed, her adult children, Spiri and Dennis, grappled with guilt, sadness and fatigue as they fumbled their way from one bewildering symptom and care system to the next. But their mother had given them some very special gifts draw on at this time and which they could use long after she was gone. In this compelling tribute to her mother, Spiri shares these gifts, along with some practical no-nonsense 'golden nuggets' on dealing with the challenges of diagnosis, living with dementia and coping with grief. Twelve Golden Gifts is a must-read for those looking after a declining loved one and for anyone who is moved by a beautiful - and funny - love story.

The Care Dilemma
A FINANCIAL TIMES AND THE SPECTATOR BOOK OF THE YEAR''Important'' Financial Times''Serious and thought-provoking'' The Critic''Brave'' Richard ReevesFamily life has changed dramatically over the past 60 years.Greater choice and autonomy, especially for women, and a more equal domestic sphere have brought great gains for human freedom. However, argues David Goodhart, there have been losses and unintended consequences too – in family instability, children’s declining mental health, and the ever-rising demands on the welfare state and social care system. Sharply falling birthrates also present major challenges.For many people, especially in the bottom half of the income spectrum, the costs are now too high. The Care Dilemma argues that we need a new policy settlement that supports gender equality while also recognising the importance of stable families and community life, and that sees having children as a public as well as private good.

The Wild Edge of Sorrow
"It blew me away. I underlined things on nearly every page." ?Anderson Cooper, All There IsThe Wild Edge of Sorrow offers hope and healing for a profoundly fractured world?and a pathway home to the brightness, pains, and gifts of being alive.Introducing the 5 gates of grief, psychotherapist Francis Weller explores how we move through the waters of grief and loss in a culture so fundamentally detached from the needs of the soul.? The first gate recognizes?and invites us to accept?the painful truth that everything we love, we will lose. With this acceptance comes beauty and responsibility?and an openness into which we can pour the full love of our hearts. At the first gate, we meet the sorrow of losing a loved one; the grief of illness; and the unique and profound pains that accompany loss by suicide.? The second gate helps us uncover and tend to the places that have not known love: the neglected pieces of our soul that need restoration and care. These ?places? can be our secret shames, or the parts of us that we feel are undeserving of love. At the second gate, we face our shadows and heal our most tender wounds.? The third gate meets us at the sorrows of the world, inviting us to open to the grave pain of our planet: the destruction of ecosystems, the harms of extractive capitalism, the unfathomable pain of war and occupation. We learn to honor and hold this grief even as we move through it, recommitting ourselves to the actions our souls call upon us to perform in service of healing and renewal.? The fourth gate, what we expected but did not receive, is present in each and every one of our lives. We may need love from a parent or partner unable to give it; we may lack the language to ask for the care we deserve. Each is a loss that must be acknowledged and grieved to move toward wholeness.? The fifth gate opens to our ancestral grief: the traumas, pains, losses, and unrealized dreams of those who came before us. Weller invites us to reconnect to our bodies, our communities, and the ancestral knowledge we hold in our bones...but may have forgotten.Profoundly moving, beautifully written, this book is a balm for the soul and a necessary salve for moving together through difficult times. Grounded in ritual and connection, The Wild Edge of Sorrow welcomes each grief with care and attention, opening us to the feelings, experiences, and sacred knowledge that connect us to each other and ultimately make us whole.
