Hair today Gone Tommorrow

Balding is not something anyone would look forward to. Even though we are unable to stop aging we can help ourselves when it comes to hair loss.

Our hair does get thinner as we age and more for some than others but with today's medications and creams etc we may be able to slow this down.

I have looked into many hair loss remedies and have found some that are better than others in how they say the can slow down hair loss and some even say they will help your existing hair grow more and stronger. I do not know about that but have heard of some of the good some of them do.

Intervention With At Risk Youth Programs

By Juliette Cruz


It is a known fact that there are children with more of a likelihood to fail than others, both academically and at life in general. This has initiated government and private organizations to fund at risk youth programs to attempt and prevent or at least intervene to help increase their chances. They work with academic intervention, as well as providing after school activities so they will be supervised when there is no adult in charge.

Infants as young as a few weeks old may be identified and qualify for intervention. This is usually provided to those infants with severe physical and cognitive disabilities who can be easily identified at an early age. It is more intended to help the parent learn how to stimulate their baby. It may also include physical therapy, helping the parent understand how to carry out the therapy on a daily basis.

Preschool intervention starts at age three. They have specific criteria for qualifying for this free program. It is a program for preschoolers who have a significant degree of physical or cognitive deficits. These interventions are designed to help the child develop to the level of which they are capable. Some develop to the point they are able to enter the general education program at kindergarten or first grade level. Others will continue to require special services, but will still get a better chance with this early intervention.

Additional activities are often provided by community agencies and parent support groups. These activities are geared toward providing social interactions and parental support. The often have special sports leagues for those with disabilities. They also offer holiday events that are very similar to those that non-handicapped children enjoy. They are able to enjoy Easter egg hunts, Christmas celebrations and such with others with capabilities similar to theirs.

More academic interventions are provided to the school age child. These include tutoring offered free by the school and special aides hired from funds provided by special grants. These aides offer in-class assistance and special one-on-one help in short sessions of pulling them out. Their intervention is an attempt to help the child achieve more academic success.

After school school activities are also offered to this age group. These are provided by community organizations, usually funded by grants. They provide after school care, tutoring, homework help, and special community field trips. This might be the only opportunity the child has for community experiences.

For the older child, after school interventions such as organized sports and special clubs are offered, as well as tutoring and homework help. They may also be offered field trips to gain exposure to the community. Organized team sports helps them gain many life skills while having fun.

These at risk youth programs are imperative in order to give all children as much opportunity as possible. Schools, government organizations, private agencies, and community volunteers are all involved in providing these equal opportunities. Socioeconomic status is a big indicator of school success or failure, and these programs help provide services that will hopefully be instrumental in breaking the cycle of poverty.

You Can Easily Reinvent Your Life

By Leslie Mitchell


Recently, self help texts and books have proven very popular with people looking to improve their lives. Some see them as worthless or a gimmick that is not helpful, however, the majority of those who read them find that many are very helpful and provide an avenue to reinvent your life. The variety of books available is amazing; there is something for everyone and something that applies to nearly every issue imaginable.

One such popular self help book is called exactly that, actually. This book, by PhDs Jeffrey Young and Janet Klosko, helps readers break patterns in their routines which are holding them back and bogging them down. There are 11 tips in all detailed in the book, with each tip offering helpful advice, insight, and reasons for change.

With each of the 11 common situations that are gone over in the book, the authors lay out a plan for evaluating why that is present in the person's daily routine, why they should change it, and how they can go about taking steps toward changing it. These 11 common traps or emotional patterns are referred to as lifetraps or schemas in the text. The traps and situations are nearly universal among humans, with some people suffering from many of them all at once.

There are many patterns that, if turned into a trend in someone's life, can be helped by the text. These patterns include repeatedly entering into poor relationships which lack in respect, being afraid of rejection, anxiety about major catastrophes or illnesses, and dissatisfaction with any level of success. When written about with both compassion and professional clinical and psychological insight, these poor patterns, and more, can all be addressed.

All of the eleven lifetraps detailed in the book underlie bigger issues that people face emotionally. By addressing these issues, people can confront those things about themselves which they are unhappy with and which are holding them back in many areas of their lives. The text and its supplemental material provide readers with helpful and detailed case studies of other people who suffer from similar issues and how the program helped them improve their lives.

In addition to the case histories, the book also provides self-diagnostic tests, detailed descriptions, easily-accessible and understood lists, and meaningful steps to overcoming common traps. Having a negative self-image can have a hugely negative effect on a person. Many simply cannot pull themselves out of these destructive patterns without some guidance and help from people familiar with the issues and trained in how to approach them.

Both authors are helpful and respectful but they also know what it takes to improve one's situation and they pull no punches. Some of the techniques that they suggest in the book include cognitive practices like creating lists and then acting on the steps. Other practices are behavioral, like changing daily tasks and habits and others are experiential like getting more in touch with the child inside us.

The reinvent your life book is quite an easy read and has received positive praise from both readers and critics alike. Both authors come from a place of compassion and understanding but also are firm in their beliefs of what readers must do to see change. It is recommended that anyone suffering from destructive life patterns take a look at the book themselves.
