Guided imagery can be the key to behavior change. Welcome to Volume 2 of 30 Scripts for Relaxation, Imagery and Inner Healing edited by Julie Lusk. This volume, like the first, contains relaxation and imagery scripts that focus on relaxing the body and mind, connecting with nature, discovering and learning from wise inner guides, healing physical and emotional injuries, and discovering more about yourself. Julie has included a cross-reference index, which organizes the scripts from both volumes into specific categories, such as enhancing intuition, strengthening self-esteem, and making behavioral changes.Taking time to think, daydream, and relax is rarely valued in today’s society. We live in a time of information overload. We try to do so much so fast that even waiting a couple of seconds is waiting too long. The guided meditations and imageries will help you explore and develop your internal life of thought, emotion, and spirit. It’s well worth the effort.Every trainer knows that teaching is more than simply dispensing information–good teaching requires helping people to change. Guided imagery is an excellent tool for helping people focus on an issue, clarify their thinking, and tap into the power of their inner thoughts for meaningful and lasting change. This volume contains 30 professionally tested, ready-to-use scripts in a variety of lengths.People just beginning to use imagery and visualization will find here the help they need to get started – a wide variety of scripts on a broad range of themes, plus helpful information on how to use guided imagery.Experienced leaders will find new ideas that will expand their repertoire and renew their creativity.Also included is a chapter containing short biographies of the contributors and the cross-reference section described above. What others are saying:Both of these volumes [30 Scripts Vol. 1 & 2] contain a collection of superior guided imagery scripts, carefully chosen and sensitively organized; thoughtful instructions for the novice; clear editorial comments for the experienced clinician; beautifully done.Belleruth Naparstek Healthy Journeys

Although women have long been members of the labour force, the proportion of domestic, caring, and community work they provide compared to men or the state has yet to decrease substantially. Beyond Caring Labour to Provisioning Work offers a powerful new framework for understanding women's work in a holistic sense, acknowledging both their responsibilities in supporting others as well as their employment duties. Beyond Caring Labour to Provisioning Work is based on a four-year, multi-site study of women who are members of contemporary community organizations. The authors reveal the complex ways in which these women define and value their own work, investigating what supports and constrains their individual and collective efforts. Calling on the state to assist more with citizens' provisioning responsibilities, Beyond Caring Labour to Provisioning Work provides an excellent basis for new discussions on equitable and sustainable public policies.

Billy and the Tingles employs narrative therapy, telling the story of a child with sexually concerning behaviour and addressing contemporary issues of exposure to pornography. Unexpected changes have a profound effect on Billy’s behaviour but soon he begins to realise that ‘the Tingles’ are not the boss of him!This storybook accompanies Helping Children to Learn about Safer Sexual Behaviour: Taking Steps to Safety, a workbook that explores the issues of concerning sexual behaviour.The workbook contains: a series of activities with accompanying user-friendly advice including how to broach difficult subjects, how to engage with children who have additional needs and how to create conditions of safety to enable the necessary conversations and activities to happen. The programme of work culminates in the creation of a unique and dynamic Safety Plan which is developed collaboratively with the child (as the expert) together with key adults in their lives. The Safety Plan is designed to meet the needs of the child and gives attention to their cultural context and specific likes/interests; this ultimately keeps them and other children safe from further incidents or allegations of sexually concerning behaviour.

“Teaching is the substantive business of academe. It is often viewed, however, as an expectable given, a routine function, an intrusion to be tolerated rather than an attribute to be cultivated,” states author Raymond Fox in the Preface to The Call to Teach. In this book Fox looks at teaching from the opposite perspective, approaching the task as something to value, respect, and appreciate as a professional activity and a scholarly endeavor. It concentrates on helping social work educators develop practical strategies, boost confidence, create artful and imaginative presentations, and use a variety of approaches adapted to specific situations. Overarching themes include the pivotal place of competence building; the intersection of science and art; evidence-based practice and experiential wisdom in advancing effective instruction; the pertinence and application of lesson planning and design; and adult learning processes and learning styles. Drawing from his many years of professional experience, Fox encourages readers to use both the logical left and the artistic right halves of the brain to convey social work knowledge, values, and skills and aid students in their journey from conceptual knowledge to competent doing in their professional careers.Raymond Fox, PhD, LCSW, teaches at Fordham University, where he has led a number of advanced master’s and doctoral level courses in areas such as individual and family treatment, professional development, and the philosophy of science, as well as social work education and practice. His workshops for Fordham faculty members on teaching methodology and curriculum development are frequently presented to other university faculties. The author of many professional journal articles and book chapters, Dr. Fox also has published three books. He holds a BA from City University of New York (Queens); an MSW from Fordham University; and an MPA and PhD from New York University.

This book examines the effects of nineteenth-century industrialization on the strength of relationships within the family and between generations. Dr. Janssens' quantitative approach, based on Dutch population registers, reveals a new perspective: although family life did go through some changes, early industrialization did not lead to the destruction of nineteenth-century family life, as the traditionally dominant view contended. This innovative study also illuminates wider social issues--the nature of hierarchies, class structure and household organization.
