Abstract

Aujourd'hui, avec leurs emplois du temps surchargés, même les enfants sont stressés ! Pour se libérer des tensions de la journée et se recentrer, Jean-Pierre Clémenceau leur propose un espace récréatif, à la fois tonifiant et relaxant. Tout simples, spécialement pensés pour les enfants de 2 à 12 ans, ses exercices de gym associée à du yoga jouent sur l'aspect ludique des postures (le loir, l'équilibriste, le pirate à une jambe, la grenouille...) mais aussi sur l'imaginaire (visualisations positives, musique, expression corporelle, méditation). Sa méthode de relaxation donne à l'enfant les moyens de retrouver un équilibre à la fois physique, psychique et émotionnel. Plus souple, plus calme, plus concentré, il développe sa créativité et sa confiance en lui. Or, on le sait bien, un enfant serein dort, apprend, grandit et s'épanouit mieux...

Abstract

Grâce aux progrès de la science, nous savons maintenant que le mouvement fait partie intégrante de la santé de la future maman et de son bébé. Or, puisque de grands changements s'opèrent dans le corps de la femme enceinte, la majorité des principes d'entraînement traditionnels ne s'applique plus à sa situation. C'est pourquoi ce livre propose des exercices respectant spécifiquement les besoins musculaires et articulaires qui évoluent au cours des neuf mois de la grossesse et des six mois suivant la naissance de l'enfant. Cet ouvrage contient également de judicieux conseils et de nombreux programmes pour prévenir et soulager les douleurs associées à la grossesse et à la période postnatale, pour prévenir ou éliminer les inconvénients fréquents, pour corriger les problèmes de posture les plus courants et préparer le corps à l'accouchement afin de faciliter le travail. La nouvelle maman pourra ainsi reprendre le contrôle de son corps après l'accouchement et revenir en toute sécurité à l'entraînement ou au sport.

Chronic Illness

Abstract

"Drawing on her own deeply personal experiences, Ania Bula explores what it is like to live with unseen chronic disabilities. She paints a vibrant picture of what it is like to be diagnosed with two life-long debilitating conditions as a young adult and relates the challenges and frustrations of dealing with predatory alternative medicine practitioners, arrogant doctors, indifferent bureaucracies, and well-meaning friends and family who always seem to say either the wrong thing-or nothing at all. As she discovered, suddenly everyone's aunt is a health expert and everyone's fad diet a cure. Making matters worse, her physical torment quickly translated into mental stresses. Relationships became strained, while others, including all-important romantic ones, never had a chance to start at all. Wading through a constant stream of ignorance and lies, in a desperate attempt to find peace, to stop the pain, and to return to a more normal life, she submits to being stuffed with powders and magic potions, poked and prodded, and even "faith healed." With honesty and humor, she shares her journey of pain, suffering, and, ultimately, coping, both to help others gain some understanding about what it is like to live with chronic illness-and to help those who might similarly suffer feel less alone, so that they too might start living again.

"Drawing on the author's personal experiences with her own physical and mental health struggles, the book explores what it is like to live with chronic disabilities as a young adult"-- Provided by publisher

Chronic Illness

Abstract

For those who find themselves at the intersection of lifetime love and overwhelming obligation, the right path is often painful and difficult to find. When illness invades the couple relationship, partners ask themselves and each other some really hard questions: "What do I want to do for this person whom I have loved for many years?" "How much of my life do I give up to take care of my beloved?" "How do I sit by my beloved's side and watch her suffer?" While writing In Sickness as in Health, authors Barbara Kivowitz and Roanne Weisman learned through interviews with many couples, as well as with medical, spiritual, legal, rehabilitation and psychological experts, that couples find their own ways to deal with illnesses and catastrophic injuries.

Child Development

Abstract

Les statistiques le confirment : les enfants sont plus sédentaires qu?avant. Des changements familiaux, sociaux et technologiques font en sorte qu?ils semblent avoir perdu l?habitude ? ou qu?on ne leur laisse plus le temps - de jouer spontanément dehors à toute heure du jour, seuls, en groupe ou en famille, autour de la maison, au parc ou dans d?autres endroits verts, quand ils sont accessibles? Pourtant, les bienfaits du jeu libre et actif à l?extérieur, lorsque ceux-ci sont pratiqués en toute sécurité, sont multiples. Peu importe leur âge, les enfants accèdent ainsi à de nouvelles expériences, dépensent leur énergie, laissent libre court à leur imagination, éliminent les effets négatifs du stress, améliorent leur condition physique, leur concentration de même que leur sommeil. Bref, ils grandissent de la plus belle des façons. En servant de modèles aux jeunes, les parents contribuent activement à leur faire découvrir le plaisir de jouer dehors. En plus de fournir des clés pour y parvenir, Viens jouer dehors! leur suggère plusieurs jeux adaptés à différents âges, différents lieux et à chaque saison.

Raina eventually returns to school, where she's dealing with the usual highs and lows: friends, not-friends, and classmates who think the school year is just one long gross-out session. It soon becomes clear that Raina's tummy trouble isn't going away... and it coincides with her worries about food, school, and changing friendships.
