Book Synopsis Fostering Resilience Before, During, and After Experiences of Trauma by : Buuma Maisha
Download or read book Fostering Resilience Before, During, and After Experiences of Trauma written by Buuma Maisha and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-05-09 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume recognizes that resilience, and the most effective means of harnessing it, differ across individuals, contexts and time. Presenting chapters written by a range of scholars and clinicians, the book highlights effective evidence-based approaches to nurturing resilience, before, during and after a traumatic experience or event. By identifying distinct therapeutic tools which can be used effectively to meet the particular needs and limitations associated with different age groups, clients and types of experience, the volume addresses specific challenges and benefits of nurturing resilience and informs best practice as well as self-care. Approaches explored in the volume include the use of group activities to teach resilience to children, the role of sense-making for victims of sex trafficking, and the ways in which identity and spirituality can be used to help young and older adults in the face of pain and bereavement. Chapters also draw on the lived experiences of those who have engaged in a personal or guided journey towards finding new meaning and achieving posttraumatic growth following experiences of trauma. The rich variety of approaches offered here will be of interest to clinicians, counsellors, scholars and researchers involved in the practice and study of building resilience, as well as trauma studies, psychology and mental health more broadly. The personal and practice-based real-life stories in this volume will also resonate with individuals, family and community members facing adversity.

Book Synopsis New Frontiers in Resilient Aging by : Prem S. Fry
Download or read book New Frontiers in Resilient Aging written by Prem S. Fry and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-07-29 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A typically pessimistic view of aging is that it leads to a steady decline in physical and mental abilities. In this volume leading gerontologists and geriatric researchers explore the immense potential of older adults to overcome the challenges of old age and pursue active lives with renewed vitality. The contributors believe that resilience capacities diminishing with old age is a misconception and argue that individuals may successfully capitalize on their existing resources, skills and cognitive processes in order to achieve new learning, continuing growth, and enhanced life-satisfaction. By identifying useful psychological resources such as social connectedness, personal engagement and commitment, openness to new experiences, social support and sustained cognitive activity, the authors present a balanced picture of resilient aging. Older adults, while coping with adversity and losses, can be helped to maintain a complementary focus on psychological strengths, positive emotions, and regenerative capacities to achieve continued growth and healthy longevity.

Book Synopsis Architecture and Resilience by : Kim Trogal
Download or read book Architecture and Resilience written by Kim Trogal and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-12-20 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Resilience will be a defining quality of the twenty-first century. As we witness the increasingly turbulent effects of climate change, the multiple challenges of resource depletion and wage stagnation, we know that our current ways of living are not resilient. Our urban infrastructures, our buildings, our economies, our ways of managing and governing are still too tightly bound to models of unrestrained free-market growth, individualism and consumerism. Research has shown that the crises arising from climate change will become increasingly frequent and increasingly severe. It is also known that the effects of climate change are not evenly distributed across places and people, and neither are the resources needed to meet these challenges. We will need specific responses in place that engage with, and emerge from, citizens ourselves. This volume takes resilience as a transformative concept to ask where and what architecture might contribute. Bringing together cross-disciplinary perspectives from architecture, urban design, art, geography, building science and psychoanalysis, it aims to open up multiple perspectives of research, spatial strategies and projects that are testing how we can build local resilience in preparation for major societal challenges, defining the position of architecture in urban resilience discourse.
Download or read book Vieillissement et résilience written by and published by De Boeck Supérieur. This book was released on 2004-01-01 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Puisque la résilience définit la reprise d'un type de développement après une déchirure traumatique, on peut se demander ce qu'il en est de ce processus chez les personnes âgées. Il semble bien que la vieillesse des traumatisés précoces oscille entre deux pôles opposés : ceux qui bénéficient des mécanismes de défense constructive qu'il ont dû mettre en place pour devenir résilients. Ceux qui, ayant enfoui le traumatisme sans en faire un travail de résilience, voient resurgir la blessure comme un effet palimpseste. Quand le traumatisme survient au cours de la vieillesse, une résilience est encore possible, utilisant le passé pour en faire un processus de développement. Docteur Boris Cyrulnik, Colloque de Salon-de-Provence des 29 - 30 et 31 janvier 2004

This book was released on 2023-10-22 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cette publication est certainement la toute premiere grande syntese tematique et critique sur la condition des personnes socialement vulnérables (PSV) en Afrique.

L'assignation matinale et originaire étant de construire des véhicules juridiques psychologiques, socio-antropologiques et portiques afin a amorcer un changement positit et une protection durable des oS. ainsi que des protocoles coutumiers pour leu valorisation dans les cultures et traditions atricaines This publication is certainly the first major thematic and critical synthesis on the condition of socially vulnerable persons (PSV) in Africa. An excellent line-up of 40 experts and institutions from different countries of the continent is making an effort to understand this phenomenon, which has become worrying, through a complex, retrospective, factual, current, quantified, punctual, prospective and relatively exhaustive analytical inventory. The various contributions are accompanied by strong recommendations that challenge the holders of issues for their application in a process of co-construction for an active citizenship of transformation. It is a document of advocacy/indictment and lobbying in favor of the development, protection and improvement of the social conditions of the elderly and persons with disabilities in Africa in terms of health, food, housing, environment, social protection, income maintenance, employment and education, given their increasing numbers in relative and absolute terms. The issue of socially vulnerable people is thus brought to the forefront of important, if not permanent, political-social and scientific concerns. It is the subject of recurrent investigations and reflections within the special mechanism of the African Union, the Working Group on Elderly Persons and Persons with Disabilities of the African Commission on Human and Peoples' Rights. The initial assignment is to build legal, psychological, socio-anthropological and political vehicles in order to initiate positive change and sustainable protection of VHPs, as well as customary protocols for their valorization in African cultures and traditions.

Book Synopsis Résilience, vieillissement et maladie d'Alzheimer by : Antoine Lejeune
Download or read book Résilience, vieillissement et maladie d'Alzheimer written by Antoine Lejeune and published by De Boeck Supérieur. This book was released on 2007-12-06 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La résilience d'une personne âgée est donc plus historique et verbale que celle d'un jeune qui est plus sensorielle et biologique. Les facteurs de résilience n'ont pas la même forme. Et quand la maladie d'Alzheimer déchire le sujet, insidieusement, le contexte garde un effet de résilience. Le malade parait moins touché quand l'aidant est empathique : son affectivité est sécurisée et sa gestualité permet une communication efficace longtemps après que la parole ait disparu. L'interaction de l'aidant dépend de sa personnalité, de sa relation avec le malade et de la signification que prend pour lui la maladie. Son histoire personnelle et les mots de sa culture organisent la manière dont il interagit avec le malade. Quand le contexte humain souffle sur les braises de résilience du malade pour entretenir la flamme, on peut parler de moments de résilience puisque la clinique confirme que tout n'est pas éteint dans le psychisme de l'âgé. Les mimiques, les gestes et la musique entendue lors des jeunes années, soufflent sur ces braises et font revenir la vie psychique. Voilà les questions qu'abordent les auteurs de ce petit livre, voilà comment ils explorent le monde mental de celui qui ne peut plus parler et qui pourtant continue à vivre avec son nouvel entourage affectif et avec les objets visuels ou sonores qui amorcent encore sa mémoire identitaire.

Book Synopsis Flocking Together: An Indigenous Psychology Theory of Resilience in Southern Africa by : Liesel Ebersöhn
Download or read book Flocking Together: An Indigenous Psychology Theory of Resilience in Southern Africa written by Liesel Ebersöhn and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-07-03 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes how those individuals who are often most marginalised in postcolonial societies draw on age-old, non-western knowledge systems to adapt to the hardships characteristic of unequal societies in transformation. It highlights robust indigenous pathways and resilience responses used by elders and young people in urban and rural settings in challenging Southern African settings (South Africa, Namibia, Lesotho and Swaziland) to explain an Indigenous Psychology theory. Flocking (rather than fighting, fleeing, freezing or fainting) is explained as a default collectivist, collaborative and pragmatic social innovation to provide communal care and support when resources are constrained, and needs are par for the course. Flocking is used to address, amongst others, climate change (drought and energy use in particular), lack of household income and securing livelihoods, food and nutrition, chronic disease (specifically HIV / AIDS and tuberculosis), barriers to access services (education, healthcare, social welfare support), as well as leisure and wellbeing. The book further deliberates whether the continued use of such an entrenched socio-cultural response mollifies citizens and decision-makers into accepting inequality, or whether it could also be used to spark citizen agency and disrupt longstanding structural disparities.

Book Synopsis Primary Care Mental Health in Older People by : Carlos Augusto de Mendonça Lima
Download or read book Primary Care Mental Health in Older People written by Carlos Augusto de Mendonça Lima and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-08-07 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a practical resource that will support the delivery of holistic mental health interventions in the primary and community care setting for older people. Primary care delivery is discussed in relation to both functional mental health problems, such as anxiety, depression, and psychotic and personality disorders, and acquired organic mental disorders of old age, such as dementia, cognitive impairments, and delirium. Careful consideration is paid to the complex relationship between mental and somatic health problems, as well as the impacts of multimorbidity and polypharmacy. Further topics include, for example, epidemiology, wider determinants of health, different care models, history taking, neurocognitive and capacity assessment, and pharmacological, psychological, and physical interventions. The wider goals of the book are to support the development of community resilience and self-care in older people; to promote universal access and equity for older people in order to enable them to achieve or recover the highest attainable standard of health, regardless of age, gender, or social position; and to promote pathways to care for older people with mental health problems respecting their autonomy, independence, human rights, and the importance of the life-course approach. This book will be an invaluable resource for all professionals who work with older adults with mental health problems and those training in these fields including physicians, psychiatrists, family doctors, geriatricians, general practitioners, nurses, psychologists, neurologists, occupational therapists, social workers, support workers and community health and social care workers.
