SUMMARY:Winter 2020 - First\, Put On Your Own Oxygen Mask
DESCRIPTION:The workshop is for parents who want to improve their quality of life and their relationship with their children. The material I cover truly changed my life\, and I would love to share it with you. To quote Brianna Wiest\, “True self-care is not salt baths and chocolate cake\, it is making the choice to build a life you don’t need to regularly escape from.” Take my class and start the process of building a life that sustains you\, even when things are hard. \nIn this eight-session workshop you will learn new ways to think about your problems and how to implement self-care techniques proven to reduce stress\, even when life is incredibly busy. In addition to learning more about yourself\, you will join with other parents who want to learn skills taught in cognitive and dialectical behavior therapy\, as well as mindfulness–based stress reduction techniques. \nREGISTRATION CLOSED\nThis workshop will be led by Dr. Sarah Wayland\, Ph.D. and starts Monday\, January 13th\, 2020. \nTopics \n\nUnderstand Yourself\nThoughts\, Behavior & Feelings\nPleasant Activities\, Relaxation & Mindfulness\nChange Your Thinking\nEffective Communication\nOvercome Your Fears\nStages of Your Journey\nRewrite Your Story\n\nDates \n\nJanuary 13\, 20\, 27\nFebruary 3\, 10\, 17\, 24\nMarch 2\n\nCost: $125 – $300.  If you pay what you can it helps us keep our program accessible to all. \nREGISTRATION CLOSED\nYou can help spread the word by downloading a copy of the flyer and posting it.

SUMMARY:Book Club - The Out-of-Sync Child by Carol Stock Kranowitz
DESCRIPTION:Join us to discuss the book The Out-of-Sync Child by Carol Stock Kranowitz (who will join us in person!)\nWednesday January 15th\, 2020 from 7:30pm to 9:00 pm \nat the offices of Guiding Exceptional Parents (4711 Sheridan Street\, Riverdale Park\, MD 20737) \nRegister here! \nBook summary: \nThe groundbreaking book that explains Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD) – and presents a drug-free approach that offers hope for parents–now revised and updated. \nDoes your child exhibit over-responsivity–or under-responsivity–to touch or movement? A child with SPD may be a “sensory avoider\,” withdrawing from touch\, refusing to wear certain clothing\, avoiding active games–or he may be a “sensory disregarder\,” needing a jump start to get moving. Are they over-responsive–or under-responsive–to sounds\, sights taste\, or smell? She may cover her ears or eyes\, be a picky eater\, or seem oblivious to sensory cues. Do they crave sensation? The “sensory craver” never gets enough of certain sensations\, e.g.\, messy play\, spicy food\, noisy action\, and perpetual movement. Or perhaps they have poor sensory discrimination. She may not sense the difference between objects or experiences–unaware of what she’s holding unless she looks\, and unable to sense when she’s falling or how to catch herself. Some children with SPD have unusually high or low activity level? The child may be constantly on the go–wearing out everyone around him–or move slowly and tire easily\, showing little interest in the world. Or they may have problems with posture or motor coordination – He may slouch\, move awkwardly\, seem careless or accident-prone. \nThese are often the first clues to Sensory Processing Disorder–a common but frequently misdiagnosed problem in which the central nervous system misinterprets messages from the senses. The Out-of-Sync Child offers comprehensive\, clear information for parents and professionals–and a drug-free treatment approach for children.
