Book SynopsisIs your worrying keeping you from reaching your goals? In Mindfulness for Teen Worry, a clinical psychologist offers quick, easy-to-learn mindfulness skills teens can use anytime, anywhere to stop worries from growing and taking over. Let's face it-being a teen isn't easy. And if you're like a lot of other teens, you probably worry about getting good grades, fitting in with a certain crowd, or what the future will bring after high school. These are all completely normal worries, and signs that you are tuned in to your life and thinking about your goals. But what about chronic worrying-the kind that keeps you up at night, ruminating about that paper you just turned in, or that thing your friend said to you at lunch (what did she mean by that?), and so on. Sometimes worrying isn't helpful. In fact, it can get in the way of living your life! So, how can you start putting worry in its place before it takes up too much head space? Mindfulness for Teen Worry will show you how living in the moment will dissolve worry and help you stay grounded in the here and now. You'll learn powerful and easy-to-use mindfulness skills to manage the four most common worry struggles teens face: school pressure, coping with friendship and relationship problems, improving body image, and handling family conflicts. You'll discover why you worry and the long-term destructive impacts worry can have on your life. And most importantly, you'll be introduced to simple, effective techniques to help you become more mindful-like harnessing the power of the breath and how to relax your body in times of stress. If you struggle with worry or anxiety that gets in the way of being your best, this fun and friendly guide will help you maintain a mindful life in a frenzied world.

Turner Publishing Company Currents: The Ables Book 3
Book SynopsisSet four years after the events of Strings, Currents finds the Ables gang about to start their second year at Goodspeed University. Phillip is struggling more than ever with anxiety and PTSD, and he continues to feel tremendous guilt over the loss of a friend. It’s haunting him. He’s having vivid nightmares, passing out frequently, and starting to question his role in the world. On top of all that, he’s taking his first public speaking course, and the learning curve is steep—though he does make a new friend in the class. Phillip also finds himself truly blind once again, with no one to give him even temporary sight. He and his girlfriend, Emmaline, have created a sort of shorthand that allows her to communicate enemy positions so that Phillip can still be an effective crime fighter. Sherpa, his dog, is proving just as helpful during hero work as she is in the day-to-day things Phillip needs help with. There’s more distance between Phillip & Bentley now, and the reasons aren’t entirely understood by either of them. As Phillip tries to keep it together and rebuild an old friendship, the group of college heroes chases a new energy-hoarding villain across the globe, desperate to understand the danger in time to stop it. By the end, few of them will ever be the same.

Jessica Kingsley Publishers How Can I Remember All That?: Simple Stuff to
Book SynopsisWhy can't I remember what my parents just asked me to do? Why do I feel stressed out at school when the teacher is writing on the board and talking at the same time? And what can I do about it? Working memory issues affect a huge proportion of kids with learning differences like ADHD, dyslexia, dyscalculia, and ASD. These issues can make them feel frustrated or bored, as working memory and intelligence are two very different things. Kids with working memory problems can also act out in the classroom and at home. In this child-friendly and authoritative guide, international working memory expert Dr Tracy Packiam Alloway walks you through what working memory is, what it feels like to have problems with your working memory, and what you can do about it. She presents key tips and strategies, such as the benefits of eating chocolate or of barefoot running, that will help children both at home and at school, and includes a section at the end for adults describing how we can test for working memory issues.Trade ReviewWorking Memory in 'everyday speak'!

Let's explore what ADHD means for you with fun facts and by hearing all about other ADHD children's experiences too!You can even write (or doodle) what you already know and what you have learnt about so that you can teach your friends, family and teachers all about you and YOUR UNIQUE ADHD!Trade ReviewMy Unique ADHD empowers children with ADHD to understand that the way they think, learn and behave are actually due to their brain differences, with a focus on strengths and explains challenges through a variety of situations in school. This will help children, young people, and even adults understand that ADHD is an explanation, rather than an excuse. -- Dr Samantha Hiew, Director of ADHD Girls.It is really important that we are talking about ADHD and understanding what the condition actually is. This means more people will get it. More people will not be so critical of our gorgeous, funny, imaginative children with ADHD. Jo Steer and Clare Berry in their book 'My Unique ADHD World!' have beautifully illustrated what ADHD means and will help many children understand that their uniqueness should be celebrated and not criticised. -- Soli LazarusWhen children receive a diagnosis of ADHD, the first question adults have is what and how should I tell them what this means. Look no further than this useful and reassuring book which offers a fresh and positive interpretation of what ADHD looks like in a child's life. Key features of ADHD are translated into child-friendly, real-life examples with the twist of both explaining how it causes kids a problem and the advantages of those same characteristics. The drawings really bring the concepts to life and a before and after reflection page allow each child to work out their unique profile. I will be recommending this book highly. -- Dr Bettina Hohnen, Clinical Psychologist
