Many of the wounds people sustain in developmental trauma occur when the right brain is developing, which is tied to the autonomic nervous system and the polyvagal nervous system. While talk therapy can be helpful in recovery from trauma and addiction, many of the therapies we employ as practitioners can be improved upon by using techniques that access the right side of the brain, where the original traumas occurred.

(a)
After experiencing a traumatic event or experience, it is normal and natural to feel anxious, sad, frightened and disconnected. But if this upset does not fade and the affected person feels stuck with a constant sense of painful memories and danger, then they may be suffering from post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). It may look like one will never get over what they experienced and go back to their normal self again. But through developing new coping skills, reaching out for help and seeking treatment, one can overcome this condition and move on with their life. Most veterans have a hard time readjusting back to their lives. They are always on the edge, at all times on the verge of exploding or panicking or on the flip side and feeling disconnected from their loved ones and emotionally numb. Most veterans think that they will never feel normal again. These are the lingering symptoms of post traumatic stress disorder. It is very hard to live with PTSD that is untreated and with prolonged V.A wait times; it is easy to be discouraged (National center for PTSD, 2009). But it is possible to feel better and it only start with you even when waiting for professional treatment. There are things that one can do to themselves to overcome PTSD and come out of the other side even stronger than before.
(b)
After experiencing a life threatening event or a severe trauma, many veterans build up symptoms of post traumatic stress disorder. Almost 30 percent of the veterans treated in most clinics and hospitals have been diagnosed with post traumatic stress disorder. For the veterans who saw combat, the numbers are even higher with one pew research centre study showing a rate of 49 percent of post traumatic stress disorder. But however emotionally cut off or isolated from others you may feel, it is important to know that you are not alone. The reason why some veterans develop this disorder while others do not is not known, but it is known that the number goes up with the number of trips gone and the amount of combat one has experienced. This is not astonishing, bearing in mind that many symptoms of post traumatic stress disorder such as adrenaline quick reflexes, hyperawareness and hyper vigilance helped the veterans survive when they were deployed. It’s only that now these individuals are back home and these responses are no longer suitable or applicable.

Understanding Psychopathology
Today you may have gotten out of bed, had breakfast, gone to class,
studied, and, at the end of the day, enjoyed the company of your
friends before dropping off to sleep. It probably did not occur to
you that many physically healthy people are not able to do some or
any of these things. What they have in common is a psychological
disorder, a psychological dysfunction within an individual asso-
ciated with distress or impairment in functioning and a response
that is not typical or culturally expected. Before examining exactly
what this means, let’s look at one individual’s situation.

Paranoid Personality Disorder (301.0), which comes out of general personality disorder. These individuals have a constant distrust and suspicion of others around them, thinking that everyone has a motive against them. These patients start having problems from childhood and it presents in a variety of ways. Some of them are being apprehensive and doubtful of others thinking they are going to exploit, harm, or deceive them. Constantly preoccupied with unjustified doubts about the loyalty or trustworthiness of the people closest to them. Reluctant to confide with the fear that their information will be used maliciously against them. Persistently bears grudges, perceives attacks on their character when it is not so and quick to react with ager or counterattack (A.P.A., 2013).
These individuals or personality disorders are usually treated with cognitive behavioral therapy, which is a collaborative process of empirical investigation, reality testing, and problem-solving between the therapist and the patient (Wheeler, 2014). Depending on what other underlying issues or disorders they have, other therapeutic therapies can also be introduced but for the most part, CBT is the one that is used often for personality disorders. for PPD medication is usually not given and psychotherapy is the route, but depending on what other extreme symptoms the patient may have like anxiety or depression, then medications can be given for them. Unfortunately, these individuals don’t see that they have problems and usually don’t seek medical help, which makes for a poor quality of life for these individuals. It is common for them to have other comorbidities such as substance misuse disorder, major depressive disorder, agoraphobia and OCD (Vollm et al, 2011).
The essential feature here with these patients is distrust and being suspicious of others and their surroundings, therefore in order to be able to have any kind of therapeutic or therapist relationship with them one has to first get their trust completely. Make them feel that you are completely on their side by sharing with them that you respect what they believe but you don’t share it or have the same belief, that you have nothing that can harm them, that you are genuine and are there only for them (Carroll, 2018). Once that is established, which may take some time and patience on the therapist part, then little by little we can point various things out to them to help them see that what they perceived as evil is not it and from these little examples that are clarified then we can explain to them the disorder or problem they have.

Scale & Intervention
Depression is commonly underdiagnosed for African American’s and does not seek help for symptoms, this causes severe and disabling symptoms compared to white peers (Walton, & Payne, 2016). The scale that would be used to measure Cornell’s self-esteem is the Interpersonal Support Evaluation List (ISEL). This scale would measure the “belonging-, self-esteem-, and appraisal-based social support” in his current situation by the measure of 40-items (Odafe, Salami, & Walker, 2017). With the measure of ISEL, the Beck Hopelessness Scal.

Tom Selleck Health: A Comprehensive Look at the Iconic Actor’s Wellness Journeygreendigital
Tom Selleck, an enduring figure in Hollywood. has captivated audiences for decades with his rugged charm, iconic moustache. and memorable roles in television and film. From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit
CDSCO and Phamacovigilance {Regulatory body in India}NEHA GUPTA
The Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) is India's national regulatory body for pharmaceuticals and medical devices. Operating under the Directorate General of Health Services, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Government of India, the CDSCO is responsible for approving new drugs, conducting clinical trials, setting standards for drugs, controlling the quality of imported drugs, and coordinating the activities of State Drug Control Organizations by providing expert advice.
Pharmacovigilance, on the other hand, is the science and activities related to the detection, assessment, understanding, and prevention of adverse effects or any other drug-related problems. The primary aim of pharmacovigilance is to ensure the safety and efficacy of medicines, thereby protecting public health.
In India, pharmacovigilance activities are monitored by the Pharmacovigilance Programme of India (PvPI), which works closely with CDSCO to collect, analyze, and act upon data regarding adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Together, they play a critical role in ensuring that the benefits of drugs outweigh their risks, maintaining high standards of patient safety, and promoting the rational use of medicines.
Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

NVBDCP was launched in 2003-2004 . Vector-Borne Disease: Disease that results from an infection transmitted to humans and other animals by blood-feeding arthropods, such as mosquitoes, ticks, and fleas. Examples of vector-borne diseases include Dengue fever, West Nile Virus, Lyme disease, and malaria.
2. Previous Findings
Some of the changes that may occur
during everyday situations include
“sudden realizations, increases in critical
information, emotional reactions, event
interpretations, solution revelations, and
other change events that are also
intermediate goals of traditional therapy.”
(Lampropoulos & Spengler, 2005)
3. Non-traditional Counseling
From an existential perspective, friendship
has been considered as therapy for human
loneliness and alienation (Lampropoulos &
Spengler, 2005)
According to Lampropoulous and Spengler
one important advantage to religion as a
counseling intervention is the perception
of a divine presence can greatly enhance
the helpee’s expectations for change.
4. Non-traditional Counseling
Bibliotherapy is used similarly as movies
are used Lampropoulous and Spengler
state that the book that stands in for a
counselor may provide the client with a
more enduring, even life long therapeutic
relationship.
Schulenberg states that the implication of
and reference to films is that the
importance of movies extends beyond
their entertainment value.
5. Cinematherapy
Lampropoulous and Spengler found that
clients can identify with the movie
characters who face similar difficulties,
find support and acceptance for their
condition, deepen their emotional states,
achieve catharsis, increase their
awareness of the problem, get
information, find solutions through
vicarious learning, and prepare for action.
6. Cinematherapy
Schulenberg also states that using movies
as a technique in clinical practice allows
clients to view their problems from a
comfortable distance.
Movies as a visual metaphor provide an
entertaining means of educating the
viewer and fostering new attitudes
(Shulenberg, 2003)
7. Clients Not Appropriate for Movies
People with severe mental illness
Domestic violence situations
Recent traumatic experience similar to the
film
People that don’t enjoy films
8. Statistics
100% of the group reported that the
discussion after the movie was either
“excellent” or “very good”
100% of the group reported that they
would recommend the group
When asked what was most helpful one
client stated “seeing that my own grief
experience is normal.”
9. Proposed Diagnostic Criteria for
Complicated Grief
Criterion A: Person has experienced the
death of a significant other, and response
involves 3 of the 4 following symptoms,
experienced at least daily or to a marked
degree:
10. Proposed Diagnostic Criteria for
Complicated Grief
The 4 criteria are:
Intrusive thoughts about the deceased.
Yearning for the deceased.
Searching for the deceased.
Excessive loneliness since the death.
11. Proposed Diagnostic Criteria for
Complicated Grief
Criterion B: In response to the death, 4 of
the 8 following symptoms are experienced
at least daily or to a marked degree:
Purposelessness or feelings of futility about
the future.
Subjective sense of numbness, detachment,
or absence of emotional responsiveness.
12. Proposed Diagnostic Criteria for
Complicated Grief
Criterion B: (continued)
Difficulty acknowledging the death (e.g.,
disbelief).
Feeling that life is empty or meaningless.
Feeling that part of oneself has died.
13. Proposed Diagnostic Criteria for
Complicated Grief
Criterion B: (continued)
Shattered worldview (e.g., lost sense of
security, trust, control).
Assumption of symptoms or harmful
behaviors of, or related to, the deceased
person.
Excessive irritability, bitterness, or anger
related to the death.
14. Proposed Diagnostic Criteria for
Complicated Grief
Criterion C: The disturbance (symptoms
listed) must endure for at least 6 months.
Criterion D: The disturbance causes
clinically significant impairment in social,
occupational, or other important areas of
functioning.
