Self-Reg: How to Help Your Child (and You) Break the Stress Cycle and Successfully Engage with Life , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 542min

The first parenting book to bring the science and psychology of children's behavior together to build brain/body awareness for self-regulation and success. Self-Reg is a groundbreaking book that presents an entirely new understanding of your child's emotions and behavior and serves as a practical guide for parents to help their kids engage calmly and successfully in learning and life. Rooted in decades of clinical practice and research by leading child psychologist Dr. Stuart Shanker, Self-Reg realigns the power of the parent-child relationship for positive change. Self-regulation is the nervous system's way of responding to stress. We are seeing a generation of children and teens with excessively high levels of stress and, as a result, an explosion of emotional, social, learning, behavior, and physical health problems. But few parents recognize the hidden stressors that their children are struggling with physiologically as well as socially and emotionally. An entrenched view of childrearing is seeing our children as lacking self-control or willpower, but the real basis for these problems lies in excessive stress. Self-regulation can dramatically improve a child's mood, attention, and concentration. It can help children to feel empathy and to develop the sorts of virtues that every parent knows are vital for their child's long-term well-being. Self-regulation brings about profound and lasting transformation that continues to mature throughout life. Shanker translates decades of his findings from working with children into practical, prescriptive advice for parents, giving them concrete ways to develop their self-regulation skills and teach their children how to do the same for optimal learning, social, and emotional growth as well as for overall well-being. ungekürzt.

Embody: Learning to Love Your Unique Body (and Quiet That Critical Voice!) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 447min

Embody: Learning to Love Your Unique Body (and Quiet That Critical Voice!) brings to life the work of The Body Positive, a nonprofit organization founded in 1996 by Connie Sobczak and Elizabeth Scott, LCSW. This audiobook's message is rooted in the philosophy that people inherently possess the wisdom necessary to make healthy choices and to live in balance. It emphasizes that self-love, acceptance of genetic diversity in body size, celebration of the unique beauty of every individual, and intuitive self-care are fundamental to achieving good physical and emotional health. It encourages listeners to shift their focus away from ineffective, harmful weight-loss efforts toward improving and sustaining positive self-care behaviors. Initial research indicates this work significantly improves people's ability to regulate eating, decreases depression and anxiety, and increases self-esteem - all critical resources that promote resiliency against eating and body-image problems. Embody guides listeners step-by-step through the five core competencies of The Body Positive's model: reclaim health, practice intuitive self-care, cultivate self-love, declare your own authentic beauty, and build community. These competencies are fundamental skills anyone can practice on a daily basis to honor their innate wisdom and take good care of their whole selves because they are motivated by self-love and appreciation. Rather than dictating a prescriptive set of rules to follow, listeners are guided through patient, mindful inquiry to find what works uniquely in their own lives to bring about - and sustain - positive self-care changes and a peaceful relationship with their bodies. Through workshops, lectures, and leadership training sessions, Sobczak and Scott have helped thousands of people of all sizes, ages, sexual orientations, genders, ethnicities, and socioeconomic levels to lead healthier and more meaningful lives by learning how to ungekürzt.

Becoming Cliterate: Why Orgasm Equality Matters - and How to Get It , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 467min

We've been thinking about sex all wrong. Mainstream media, movies, and porn have taught us that sex = penis + vagina, and everything else is just secondary. Standard penetration is how men most reliably achieve orgasm. The problem is, women don't orgasm this way. We've separated our most reliable route to orgasm - clitoral stimulation - from how we feel we should orgasm - penetration. As a result we've created a pleasure gap between women and men: 50 percent of 18- to 35-year-old women say they have trouble reaching orgasm with a partner 64 percent of women versus 91 percent of men said they had an orgasm at their last sexual encounter 55 percent of men versus 4 percent of women say they usually reach orgasm during first-time hookup sex In Becoming Cliterate, psychology professor and human sexuality expert Dr. Laurie Mintz exposes the broader cultural problem that's perpetuating this gap and what we can do about it. Pulling together evidence from biology, sociology, linguistics, and sex therapy into one comprehensive, accessible, and prescriptive book, Becoming Cliterate features: Cultural and historical analysis of female orgasm (spoiler: the problem's been going on for ages) An anatomy section (it's all custom under the hood) Proven techniques for cliterate sex (it starts with training the sex organ between your ears) A comprehensive final chapter for men (because you don't have to have a clitoris to be cliterate) By dispelling the lies, misunderstandings, and myths that have been holding us back, Becoming Cliterate tackles both personal and political problems and replaces them with updated outlooks and practical skills needed to change our collective perspective on sex. It's time to finally inform women and men on how to have satisfying experiences in bed that benefit both/ ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Teri Clark Linden.

Agile Project Management: Agile Revolution, Beyond Software Limits: A Practical Guide to Implementing Agile Outside Software Development (Agile Business Leadership, Book 4) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 150min

Agile Project Management - Achieve More - Practical Advice - Agile Revolution It is impossible to overstate the severe set of challenges caused by the overly administrative linear development approach and specifically the waterfall methodology. From Agile Project Management : Agile Revolution Waterfall methodology is part of the linear, scope-driven lifecycles family of approaches. As it is the manifestation of the command-and-control organization, it is highly prescriptive. Almost all organizations using the methodology have a similar set of processes, mostly based on the PMBOK (more on that later). Agile is an approach for managing software product development according to the guidelines set in the Agile manifesto. There are several methods and processes for implementing the Agile approach. It is 2014, I think to myself, and still businesses believe that having a 110-page project delivery methodology is a prudent approach to planning engineering customer-facing projects and products. Failure is written all over the pretty waterfall deployment approach and the numerous templates, work instructions, procedures, processes, decrees, and change approval committees. When I did introduce Agile concepts, I wasn't surprised that most didn't recognize the term. Indeed, while the software industry has been undergoing a paradigm shift other industries, project managers, and the respective project community have been ignorant of the benefits embedded in Agile approaches.... The heavy descriptive waterfall methodology they have concocted requires an upfront investment in feasibility assessment and the allocation of project resources to it. Agile approach, the Kanban method with some elements of Scrum, would be a much better solution to their feasibility phase ailments. For them and for everyone else who thinks that Agile is limited to software, I dedicate this guide.... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Barbara H. Scott.

Ditch the Diet and Think Yourself Slim , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 40min

Taken from a live event, the UK's leading Lifecoach, Pete Cohen will show you how to become slimmer, fitter and healthier using the power of your mind by revealing some of his secrets in successfully working with thousands of people helping them achieve their goals. The key to thinking yourself slim is in reprogramming your mind to lose weight, be free from the extremes of dieting and to give you a relaxed, healthy relationship with eating and food. Because most diets are prescriptive, we become over obsessed with foods so long-term diets don't work. They will tell you what to eat, when to eat and, most importantly, what not to eat. But do you really want to be told what and when you can eat for the rest of your life? We all know what foods we should eat and that we should exercise, but knowing alone doesn't make us do it. For most people, eating is an automatic process. We are unaware of the many patterns we have when it comes to food and of the emotions that lead them to eat. It's often your emotions that cause you to overeat. But as you've learned to behave a particular way, you can also unlearn it. Lose weight and keeping isn't done through dieting, by giving up foods or by missing out - it's done by changing the way you think. Make this year the last year you ever have to make a New Year's resolution to lose weight and hear Pete Cohen's presentation and get into shape the healthy, happy and sensible way. www.sortyourlifeout.com ungekürzt.
