Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Drama games are not staged plays but a dynamic form in which children explore their minds and the world around them. They can use their play-acting in sensory games, pantomimes, story games with puppets, in creating masks and costumes, and much more.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Based on the idea that it is our own response to a situation - rather than the situation itself - that creates a particular outcome, THE EROS EQUATION is a unique approach to improving relationships. Instead of focusing on difficult partners or problems, author and relationship adviser Eve Eschner Hogan enables us to uncover new and creative responses in ourselves using the EROS equation. As she explains in the introduction, Hogan developed this problem-solving tool through years of work with clients, colleagues, and in her own marriage. She named it the EROS equation because it can be written as Event + Response = Outcome and Solutions (E + R = O and S). Invocative of the Greek god of love, this empowering outlook leads to deeper self-knowledge and more harmonious relationships. Writing in accessible, short chapters, Hogan uses real-life examples to look at typical relationship issues, from daily annoyances to extramarital affairs. She highlights common responses that don't work and applies the EROS equation to show us how our own wisdom, intuition, and creativity can reveal solutions. THE EROS EQUATION makes clear that by changing an unhelpful, habitual response that blocks understanding, we can create a loving and solution-oriented outcome.

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Hyperventilation, or moving more air through the lungs than the body can handle, is a common reaction to sudden danger or excitement. However, for some people over-breathing becomes a habit. Symptoms of hyperventilation can mimic those of serious diseases, causing sufferers to think that they are having a heart attack or even that they are dying. Chronic hyperventilation affects an estimated 10 percent of all people targeting primarily asthmatics, premenstrual or menopausal women, over-achievers and workaholics, and abuse victims. Its symptoms can include breathlessness at rest, chest pains, palpitations, broken sleep, stomach or bowel problems, dizziness, and anxiety. Though widely underdiagnosed, hyperventilation syndrome is now recognized as a significant cause of ill health.
