The Power Of Meditation. Meditation is a powerful tool that can be used to improve the quality of life for people with special needs. It can help to reduce stress and anxiety, improve sleep, and increase focus and concentration. Meditation is also an effective way to manage pain. How To Get Started With Meditation. Meditation can be a really helpful way to focus and calm your mind, but it can be tricky to know how to get started. Here are a few tips: Find a comfortable place to sit or lie down. You might want to use a meditation cushion or pillow, but you can also meditate sitting in a chair or lying on your back on the floor. Close your eyes and take a few deep breaths. Then begin to focus on your breath, counting each inhale and exhale. If your mind wanders, simply bring your attention back to your breath. Start with just a few minutes of meditation and work up to longer sessions as you get more comfortable with the practice. Remember that there’s no “right” way to meditate, so go at your own pace and do what feels best for you. Tips And Tricks For A Successful Meditation Practice. Meditation can be a great way to focus and calm the mind, but it can be difficult to get started. Here are a few tips and tricks for a successful meditation practice: 1. First, find a comfortable place to sit or recline in. You want to be...

Tips And Tricks For A Successful Meditation Practice

Did you know that last month history marked the 200th anniversary of the publishing of Jane Austen’s best known work? As most will know it’s about love and how irrationally held views and emotions can easily scupper relationships.  So is it much of a leap to find parallels in mental health, where irrationally held views stunt progress and keep matters locked into a sort of emotional stone age, where people go around dragging their knuckles on the ground whenever confronted by mental illness. As young Kevin McAllister was want to say in Home Alone — I don’t think so! Let’s look at where pride comes in. Well, perversely, given the above statements, pride rests more often with those with mental illness — that is the inability or unwillingness, often based on false pride, to address that one has a problem. I knew I had a problem, though didn’t know what that problem was, and went for around 30 years in various stages of denial. I can’t speak for you, but that denial was not consistently held, and on occasion I would relent and agree something ‘needed to be done’, but that rarely lasted, and I would seek solace in a new job, or new car, or clearing a debt and state with absolute belief that things would be ok now. Pride? Or just dumb ass stupidity? Either way it prevented me from dealing with it and beginning to move forward with my life. Misplaced stubborn male pride! – and...

Bipolar Pride and Prejudice

Did you know that farting can cause cancer of the bowel? Or that using lipstick might send you dog Bipolar? If for a second you believed these stories you need help!  We are bombarded daily by some new scientific research saying too much or too little of this or that will kill us or send us round the twist. To paraphrase Butch Cassidy ‘who are these guys?’ More to the point we live in a world where millions are spent by some research institute to tell us we may die sooner if we sit down more than 8 hours a day. I mean come on – who the hell cares. One fact that I can quote with total certainty is that no-one gets out of this life alive. We are going to die! Ok? – get over it! Suck it up! – only not being born prevents it. Sadly this is not a recent phenomenon – I recall a full page advertisement by the Sugar Corporation about 20 years ago. Underneath a picture of a skeleton the caption read ‘This man gave up eating everything that was bad for him’. I did love that I have to say! Red meat gives you colon cancer. Vegans, though, risk twisted colons: red meat causes constipation whereas vegans generate more methane than the Louisiana swamplands. In fact maybe there’s a correlation to be made between the rise of vegetarianism and global warming given the amount of increased flatus in the atmosphere. Sorry...

Health Scare Fatigue!

This is an excerpt from Caroline McGraw’s book for caregivers, Your Creed of Care: How to Dig for Treasure in People (Without Getting Buried Alive). To receive your complimentary copy of the book via email, visit Caroline’s blog for caregivers, A Wish Come Clear.   Pitfall   #7:   Holding   On  I’m not a parent, so I can only imagine how difficult it must be letting a babysitter watch your kids, letting them go off to school, to college, to the wider world. Add to that a child with a physical or intellectual disability, and the letting-go gets even more difficult. To let go, to trust another person with your child or sibling? It may seem impossible. Yet, it’s also extremely valuable, both for you and the person you love and care for. I remember riding with my parents the first time we dropped my brother Willie off for a respite weekend. He’d be spending two days with a group in a local hotel, going to game nights and swimming in the pool. I knew that Willie would have a great time. Even so, I felt a rush of protectiveness and near-panic as he exited the car. I kept feeling a need to check on him, to make sure he was all right. I could tell that my mom felt this need even more than I did. Though she’d met the staff and talked to my brother extensively and prepared long lists of Willie’s...

Pitfall #7: Holding On

 … continued from here       The Children   The root cause of RAD is abandonment trauma or failure to attach. Physical abuse and sexual abuse are much easier to treat than a core, learned belief that one is worthless or bad. Most of the children have been misdiagnosed already and prescribed inappropriate medication that didn’t work, and the worst part about this is that they have lost precious time. The younger they are when I get them the more successful our work. Time is of the essence, and bonding is supposed to take place in the very young. Many people think violent children are bad seeds and their parents are victims of these children, not realizing that these violent children suffer excruciating injuries at a very young age. Each of these children is unique and different. Some are arrogant. Most of these children who kill are boys, however we are having an epidemic of “mean girls”, too. After the attachment trauma, boys are often disciplined more harshly for their defiance and disrespect of authority. They often engage with other RAD children and begin competing for top dog, and at some point, testosterone kicks in. Some RAD kids are profoundly self-conscious, like most of the mass murdering shooters we recently read about. Some cannot bear to be touched. Some are highly sensitive to certain sounds. All initially refuse eye contact, unless it’s on their terms. They have come to believe there is something wrong...

I Am Adam Lanza’s Therapist: The Children, The Moms

 I grew up as a child actor and model, from ages two to eighteen. I never did anything fame-worthy, but I did pose for Vogue Bambini and Rolling Stone Magazine, with Fleetwood Mac. I also got to repeatedly stuff my face with cookies in a Pillsbury Cookie Dough commercial. I loved being on set. There was a sense of pride I felt, getting constant attention from directors, makeup artists, and cameramen, and it was addictive, because it gave me a sense of self-esteem. I was the cute curly-haired Shirley Temple-like girl that made enough money to fund my entire college career, and I put a lot of pressure on myself to succeed.   When I turned five, I started gaining weight. I never told my mother when she offered me half of a Häagen-Dazs chocolate ice cream bar after every dinner, that after school, I’d have a whole chocolate ice cream Häagen-Dazs bar to myself, along with some cereal. My cholesterol skyrocketed, and per doctor’s orders, I was put on a strict diet. My mother scrutinized my body daily, because my health and “career” were on the line. During one photo shoot for Nordstroms, the cameraman, very publicly, told my mother that I had “VPL” (i.e. visible panty lines). My mother was mortified, and she started to monitor my eating habits even more closely. I never developed an eating disorder, but I had strange habits, like cutting the frizzy parts of my hair, and hiding them under our...

Finding Your Self-Esteem From Within

 If it wasn’t bad enough being a teenager, it’s a real bummer if you are developing symptoms of Bipolar. As parents, if we’re honest, we want a bit of rebellion in our children. It’s healthy for them to be reprobates — within reason of course — and getting their elbows out, and testing the life’s realities before they are set loose.    As a male, I went through the normal pattern of trying for the world “bashing the bishop” record, but whilst most boys work through the irrational feelings of guilt, the one with Bipolar suffers in ways his parents cannot begin to understand. If it’s the Dysthymic phase, the characteristics will be lack of self esteem, poor concentration, a degree of self loathing and depression and a general overwhelming lethargy. Sounds familiar doesn’t it!   And then when the euphoric phase kicks is, the mood will be high energy, nonsense — often endearing — mental sharpness and outright arrogance. Sounds familiar doesn’t it!!   There’s the rub, so much of Bipolar can be ascribed as teenage hormones, and without seeking to be alarmist, this illness lurks beneath the surface like a Shark! One can almost hear the fabled music.   Time for some levity, which is how I cope. I went to the Psychiatrist and said “can you help me out?” He said “sure, which way did you come in?”   Now lest someone shouts foul, I am not against therapy. Far...

When anger is not expressed, it may turn inward and morph into self-destruction or depression. Children’s frustration and anger need an external outlet, and they may internalize these emotions when teachers, parents, and other adults belittle or punish them for self-expression. All this “stifling,” if you will, of their frustrations makes them feel they have nowhere to turn, and then bullying and violence can erupt suddenly . . . from any child.  Anger and its consequences can make children fearful, which makes them unable to learn. The brain will protect itself from trauma and may scramble input or output, which can be a key component of learning disorders.  In extreme situations, we hear of suicides by those we least expect, people who hid parts of themselves and put on their happy faces. Emotional and behavioral issues that accompany dyslexia may also be a reaction to frustration or anger with home, school, or social situations. The child may feel anger toward either school or home and release it when he is away from that situation.  With treatment such as Books Neural Therapy™, children can release their normal, typical anger and prevent it from turning into something more serious.  Self-destructive tendencies and the medication that doesn’t always help  One of the physical tests I perform can show self-destructive tendencies. As I begin asking simple and gentle questions, children feel safe to express themselves and their emotions. The stories I hear from these kids would positively shock their...

Suppressed anger in children can lead to self-destruction, depression, learning issues, and may be exacerbated by medications like Ritalin.

Anger, Self-Destructive Tendencies, Depression, and Learning Disorders

 According to a study published June 18, 2012 in the Archives of Internal Medicine, older adults who are lonely are 45 percent more likely to die than their peers who are social. Additionally, a separate study shows that adults with heart disease who live alone are 25 percent more likely to die from the illness.   According to researchers, one in seven Americans live alone. The importance of this research suggests that psychosocial needs are important alongside the medical needs of older adults.    Loneliness contributes to anxiety and depression, which in turn increases health risks.   Between the ages of 45 and 65, those adults who lived alone had a 24 percent higher risk of death; only 12 percent had a higher risk of death between the ages of 66 and 80.   In the loneliness study, 43 percent of the subjects reported they felt lonely. 23 percent of those individuals died over the course of the six-year study. Only 14 percent of those subjects who did not report loneliness died.   Subjects who reported being lonely also said they felt decreased ability to perform daily activities.   Researchers say adults who live alone might be less likely to call an ambulance or a doctor for help. They suggest that doctors ask patients if they live alone, so they might be able to offer additional care or support services for these individuals. 


Study finds loneliness increases risk of death in older adults and those with heart disease, highlighting the need for psychosocial care.

Loneliness Increases Risk of Death

 Aggressive or violent behavior can be a very difficult and discouraging issue to manage, especially for special needs parents and caregivers. Violent behaviors hinder progress in IEPs, in learning plans, and in becoming mature in personal independence and social skills.   It generally is assumed that aggression is a part of symptom of a primary diagnosis such as Autism or Bipolar Disease, and that effective treatment of that primary diagnosis will therefore make the aggression go away.   More and more, it is becoming clear to the medical community aggression is not part of most mental illnesses. However, mental illness can set the stage for aggression to occur more often and more unpredictably as a secondary symptom as follows:    1. Autism and other developmental disabilities hinder normal maturing of the adrenaline arousal system (an instinctual, physical response to crisis or danger.)    2. An immature or dysfunctional adrenaline arousal system more easily triggers aggressive rage and violence, sometimes in unexpected situations.   I call these aggressive scenarios Immature Adrenaline Systems Over-reactivity (IASO). Instead of burying the behaviors with psychiatric medications, the behavior can be prevented from being triggered in the first place. IASO treatment uses adrenaline blockers ( alpha-blocker such as doxazosin and beta-blocker such as Bystolic or propranolol) to protect nerve cells from excess adrenaline that triggers rage. Adrenaline blockers are less intrusive than psychiatric medications, and can be individually adjusted to allow each patient to function quite normally. With...

IASO, linked to aggression, isn't inherent to mental illnesses but can be treated with adrenaline blockers to reduce rage.

IASO (Immature Adrenaline Systems Over-reactivity), AKA Aggressive Behavior

 The other day there was a knock at my door. When I answered it was an elderly lady inquiring about my husband’s business. She described what she needed and when she’d be home, stating that her husband had cancer and they were often not home during the day due to him needing frequent treatments. As she was leaving she mentioned something about how she puts something up against her door, so people can’t look inside her house during the night and see she was there alone. I immediately felt a tinge of sadness for her. I could only imagine how she must feel during such a difficult time.   I recalled the few and far between nights I have spent alone in the house while my husband was away and how I slept with phone under my pillow and checked the doors and windows three or four times. I knew how I didn’t care to be alone at night. I also know that her home address was outside of our little tiny town in the middle of the country. Burglars looking to rob people were an unlikely scenario at her residence. I knew that her fears weren’t about being robbed. Her fears were about much more than that. They were about being alone. They were about being vulnerable and feeling powerless. They were manifesting in a fear that was easier to face than the possibility of losing her husband. Protecting yourself from a home invasion provides one with...

Story reflects on how we cope with fear and grief, suggesting mindfulness over avoidance to handle emotions in a healthier way.

Mindfulness Awareness-Avoidance

 Hyperactivity is the state of excess activity and might be manifested by fidgeting, jumping, nervousness, or inability to sit still. Hyperactivity is a common symptom of ADHD, or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.   To define what is hyperactivity can be difficult because it is a very subjective behavior. What might seem excessive to one person might look completely normal to another person. Behaviors commonly associated with hyperactivity include:    constant activity   easily distractibility   impulsivity   inability to concentrate   aggressiveness   anxiety or depression (usually from bullying or trouble with school)   trouble following directions   fidgeting, squirming, not sitting even when instructed    Individuals with ADHD will also display difficulty concentrating or participating in quiet activities. Hyperactivity from ADHD differs from normal child activity in that it interferes with school, work, and relationships. Hyperactivity is also a symptom that must be present for six months or more in order for a diagnosis of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and it must be present across all areas of a person’s life, including home, school, work, and within the community.   Hyperactivity often makes a child susceptible to bullying, and making friendships can be hard for children with ADHD. Additionally, since children with what is hyperactivity often have difficulty concentrating on schoolwork or finishing tasks, they are frequently punished for their hyperactivity by teachers and parents.   While hyperactivity is most commonly associated with ADHD,...
