- The highly sensitive parent : be brilliant in your role, even when the world overwhelms you / by Aron, Elaine,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Parenting is the most valuable and rewarding job in the world, and also one of the most challenging. This is especially true for highly sensitive people.

For highly sensitive people, parenting offers unique stresses--but the good news is that sensitivity can also be a parent's most valuable asset, leading to increased personal joy and a closer, happier relationship with their child. Dr. Elaine Aron, world-renowned author of the classic The Highly Sensitive Person and other bestselling books on the trait of high sensitivity, has written an indispensable guide for these parents.

Highly sensitive people have the potential to be not just good parents, but great ones. Practical yet warm and positive, this groundbreaking guide will show parents how to build confidence, awareness, and essential coping skills so that they--and their child--can thrive on every stage of the parenting journey.- Subjects: Child rearing.; Parenting.; Parents; Parent and child.; Sensitivity (Personality trait);

Includes bibliographical references and index."New hope for those suffering from conditions like depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, addictions, PTSD, ADHD and more. Though incidence of these conditions is skyrocketing, for the past four decades standard treatment hasn't much changed, and success rates in treating them have barely improved, either.

The End of Mental Illness will help you discover: - Why labeling someone as having a "mental illness" is not only inaccurate but harmful - Why standard treatment may not have helped you or a loved one -and why diagnosing and treating you based on your symptoms alone so often misses the true cause of those symptoms and results in poor outcomes -At least 100 simple things you can do yourself to heal your brain and prevent or reverse the problems that are making you feel sad, mad, or bad - How to identify your "brain type" and what you can do to optimize your particular type - Where to find the kind of health provider who understands and uses the new paradigm of brain health"--- Subjects: Mental health.; Mental illness.; Mental illness;
