of real-life conflict so they can exchange relational turmoil for personal and relational peace.We've all had moments where we look back on a conflict, shake our heads, and think, why did I handle it that way?With three decades of ministry experience, Donna Jones has had a front-row seat to--and been in the middle of--all kinds of conflict and she understands the regret, guilt, heartache, and hurt conflict can produce. But she also knows it's possible for God to use those chaotic, painful moments and turn them into opportunities for better connection with those around us. With encouragement, warmth, and wisdom, Donna shows readers how to navigate the stressful confusion conflict can bring and helps them todiscover the single most important quality necessary to handle conflict well;communicate thoughts, feelings, and opinions with grace, truth, and zero regret;be equipped to handle conflict in a God honoring way by exchanging conflict styles that hurt with conflict styles that heal; identify common conflict mistakes and prevent unnecessary disagreements and defeat; andstop being pulled into other people's drama and remain calm in the midst of chaos. Whether readers are dealing with daily disagreements or occasional blowups, Healthy Conflict, Peaceful Life offers them a new paradigm, one where they learn how to honor God when they've been hurt, communicate when they'd rather retaliate, and move toward others when it seems easier to run away.In a perfectionistic parenting culture that tells you that you are never enough no matter how much you do for…
your kids, this unique approach empowers you with a simple parenting technique to gain confidence, remain grounded, and connect positively with your children.Dr. Alison Escalante is a board-certified pediatrician with more than two decades of experience who has spent the last ten years exploring ways to equip parents to meet their children's needs. She has experienced first-hand the culture of criticism and anxiety that drains parental joy and leaves parents feeling bad about what they should or should not be doing with and for their children. She calls this the parenting “ShouldStorm,” and this book is her invitation to escape that cycle and be the parent your child needs.In this game-changing parenting book, Dr. Escalante outlines her 3-step science-based approach to escaping the ShouldStorm and embracing should-free mindful parenting. Going into detail about each step, she clearly explains how to implement this approach in everyday situations where parents may feel overwhelmed and shares real results from parents and children who use the technique:SIGH: In moments of parental overwhelm, take a breath all the way into your belly. Imagine it's a sigh of relief. Sighs help you stop and center yourself instead of reacting to the "should" in your head. SEE: Notice what’s going on. See your child. Are they happy? Are they close to tears? Are their fists balled in anger?START: Then, and only then, start listening, and start thinking about what an appropriate reaction would be. Do they need a hug? Some space? Something else? In the vein of Good Inside, this book offers a simple approach and practical, proven strategies any parent can use. It also explores parenting culture and why it has become more and more intense over recent decades. For anyone who wants a proven toolkit for resisting a parenting culture that shames them when they can’t meet unrealistic expectations, Sigh, See, Start is your new go-to tool for joyful parenting.Break Your Barriers: Life Experiences, Lessons Learned, and Tips for Overcoming Obstacles to Growth

leur chance d’être heureux. Ce n’est pas non plus, comme si nous souhaitons que le pire arrive à nos enfants, comme un sortilège noir craché dans un chaudron. Il ne s’agit pas du tout de cela. Le fait est que la plupart d’entre nous avons été créés par nos parents au nom de l’amour. L’espoir en une vie meilleure que celle que chaque parent a vécue est ce qu’ils nourrissent pour nous : leurs petits bouts de chou. Le fait cependant est que, le meilleur que chaque parent pourrait donner en tant que parent satisfait rarement les demandes de chaque enfant. La vie est trop grande. La complexité même d’une seule vie humaine constitue un grand défi. Comment savons-nous réellement ce dont nos enfants ont besoin ou ce qu’ils désirent de nous ? Puisse ce petit livre vous rappeler les nombreux trésors de sagesse dont vous avez certainement entendu parler des parents, grands-parents, enseignants, frères et sœurs, ou ceux que vous avez découverts vous-mêmes. Et, peut-être qu’il y aura certains que vous transmettrez à vos enfants avec plaisir, s’ils écoutent.Little Moments of Love

present moment. You want to love yourself. You want to let go of feeling invisible or unworthy or alone. You want to break free of others&’ expectations (and your own) and live life on your terms. Let&’s do it! In this highly anticipated debut, plus-size personal growth trailblazer Sarah Sapora redefines self-love, offering the knowing nod, the deep cleansing breath, and the older sister wisdom which women of all sizes have been waiting for. Soul Archaeology begins with a simple, illuminating question: &“What&’s hurting me right now?&” Acting as your guide, Sapora helps you through the sticky, liberating process of self-discovery to uncover your Ultimate You, allowing you to: see the patterns of self-abandonment that screw you out of a self-loving life; define how you truly want to feel and craft a plan to make it happen; build your Self-Love To-Do List to break free of the quest for unattainable perfection and learn to love the empowered, messy, and beautiful you. Weaving together practical, transformative guidance with her own deeply personal narrative, Soul Archaeology teaches readers to cast off the chains of traditional Before-and-After thinking so often found in self-improvement. Instead, it offers a strategy for self-accountability, honesty, and compassion that can help each of us to grow into our greatest selves–a person not defined by weight or age, but by our commitment to a more loving, honest, and powerful life.Family Policy Matters: How Policymaking Affects Families and What Professionals Can Do
Par Karen Bogenschneider. 2024
This new edition captures the evolving, post-pandemic landscape of family policy—the transformational changes that have occurred within contemporary families and…
the social, economic, and racial/ethnic disparities that have grown across families. The book draws on policies from around the globe to make an evidence-based case for family policy and its contributions to families and to society. Bogenschneider tackles a significant challenge of our times—the polarization of politics—including why it occurs and how professionals can bridge the divide. Beyond the basics, the book provides best practices for turning analysis into action by drawing on cutting-edge research and a point of view often overlooked in policy books—the voice of policymakers themselves. Imbued with hope yet fundamentally realistic, Bogenschneider applies a relationship-based and strikingly nonpartisan approach for those who want to make a positive difference for families, whether they engage local policymakers in towns, cities and counties; state/national lawmakers; or decision-makers in businesses, nonprofits and philanthropy. Accompanied by updated, web-based teaching materials and a family impact toolkit, this is core reading for undergraduate and/or graduate courses in family or social policy taught in human development and family studies, psychology, counseling, social work, sociology, public policy, political science, and education. It is also essential reading for professionals and policymakers interested in pursuing better public policy for families in all their diversity across the lifespan.El abuso verbal en las relaciones: Como reconocerlo y como responder
