We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.

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.

6. 8 Techniques Every Parent with an Anxious Child Should Try
As all the kids line up to go to school, your son, Timmy, turns to you and says, "I don't want to take
the bus. My stomach hurts. Please don't make me go." You cringe and think, Here we go again. What
should be a simple morning routine explodes into a daunting challenge.
You look at Timmy and see genuine terror. You want to comfort him. You want to ease the excessive
worry that's become part and parcel of his everyday life. First, you try logic. "Timmy, we walk an
extra four blocks to catch this bus because this driver has an accident-free driving record!" He doesn't
budge.
You provide reassurance. "I promise you'll be OK. Timmy, look at me... you trust me, right?" Timmy
nods. A few seconds later he whispers, "Please don't make me go."
You resort to anger: "Timothy Christopher, you will get on this bus RIGHT NOW, or there will be
serious consequences. No iPad for one week!" He looks at you as if you're making him walk the
plank. He climbs onto the bus, defeated. You feel terrible.
If any of this sounds familiar, know you are not alone. Most parents would move mountains to ease
their child's pain. Parents of kids with anxiety would move planets and stars as well. It hurts to watch
your child worry over situations that, frankly, don't seem that scary. Here's the thing: To your child's
mind, these situations are genuinely threatening. And even perceived threats can create a real nervous
system response. We call this response anxiety and I know it well.
I'd spent the better part of my childhood covering up a persistent, overwhelming feeling of worry
until, finally, in my early twenties, I decided to seek out a solution. What I've learned over the last
two decades is that many people suffer from debilitating worry. In fact, 40 million American adults,
as well as 1 in 8 children, suffer from anxiety. Many kids miss school, social activities and a good
night's rest just from the worried thoughts in their head. Many parents suffer from frustration and a
feeling of helplessness when they witness their child in this state day in, day out.
What I also learned is that while there is no one-size-fits-all solution for anxiety, there are a plethora
of great research-based techniques that can help manage it—many of which are simple to learn.
WAIT! Why didn't my parents know about this? Why didn't I know about it? Why don't they teach
these skills in school?
I wish I could go back in time and teach the younger version of myself how to cope, but of course,
that's not possible. What is possible is to try to reach as many kids and parents as possible with these
coping skills. What is possible is to teach kids how to go beyond just surviving to really finding
meaning, purpose and happiness in their lives. To this end, I created an anxiety relief program for
kids called GoZen! Here are 8 ideas straight from GoZen! that parents of anxious children can try
right away!
7. Stop Reassuring Your Child
Your child worries. You know there is nothing to worry about, so you say, "Trust me. There's nothing
to worry about." Done and done, right? We all wish it were that simple. Why does your reassurance
fall on deaf ears? It's actually not the ears causing the issue. Your anxious child desperately wants to
listen to you, but the brain won't let it happen. During periods of anxiety, there is a rapid dump of
chemicals and mental transitions executed in your body for survival. One by-product is that the
prefrontal cortex—or more logical part of the brain—gets put on hold while the more automated
emotional brain takes over. In other words, it is really hard for your child to think clearly, use logic
or even remember how to complete basic tasks. What should you do instead of trying to rationalize
8. the worry away?
Try something I call the FEEL method:
Freeze - pause and take some deep breaths with your child. Deep breathing can help reverse the
nervous system response.
Empathize - anxiety is scary. Your child wants to know that you get it.
Evaluate - once your child is calm, it's time to figure out possible solutions.
Let Go - Let go of your guilt; you are an amazing parent giving your child the tools to manage
their worry.
GoPractice! Think of the last anxious moment your child experienced. Pretend you are going through
that experience with them and reacting using the FEEL method. Write down what you would say and
how you would react using this method. Feel free to use illustration:
Describe the anxious moment:
Freeze:
Empathize:
Evaluate:
Let Go:
9. Highlight Why Worrying is Good
Remember, anxiety is tough enough without a child believing that Something is wrong with me. Many
kids even develop anxiety about having anxiety. Teach your kids that worrying does, in fact, have a
purpose.
When our ancestors were hunting and gathering food there was danger in the environment, and being
worried helped them avoid attacks from the saber-toothed cat lurking in the bush. In modern times, we
don't have a need to run from predators, but we are left with an evolutionary imprint that protects us:
worry.
10. Worry is a protection mechanism. Worry rings an alarm in our system and helps us survive danger.
Teach your kids that worry is perfectly normal, it can help protect us, and everyone experiences it
from time to time. Sometimes our system sets off false alarms, but this type of worry (anxiety) can be
put in check with some simple techniques.
GoPractice! Watch this video with your kids to illustrate how worry can be a protection mechanism.
11. Bring Your Child's Worry to Life
As you probably know, ignoring anxiety doesn't help. But bringing worry to life and talking about it
like a real person can. Create a worry character for your child. In GoZen we created Widdle the
Worrier. Widdle personifies anxiety. Widdle lives in the old brain that is responsible for protecting
us when we're in danger. Of course, sometimes Widdle gets a little out of control and when that
happens, we have to talk some sense into Widdle. You can use this same idea with a stuffed animal or
even role-playing at home.
Personifying worry or creating a character has multiple benefits. It can help demystify this scary
12. physical response children experience when they worry. It can reactivate the logical brain, and it's a
tool your children can use on their own at any time.
GoPractice! Get a plush toy that you can identify as the “worrier” inside your child’s brain. Have
your child begin speaking to this personification of worry. Each time they experience worry, follow
the FEEL method and then begin talking to the worry with logical words.
Journal about your first experience doing this in the space below:
13. Teach Your Child to Be a Thought Detective
Remember, worry is the brain's way of protecting us from danger. To make sure we're really paying
attention, the mind often exaggerates the object of the worry (e.g., mistaking a stick for a snake). You
may have heard that teaching your children to think more positively could calm their worries. But the
best remedy for distorted thinking is not positive thinking; it's accurate thinking. Try a method we call
the 3Cs:
Catch your thoughts: Imagine every thought you have floats above your head in a bubble (like
what you see in comic strips). Now, catch one of the worried thoughts like "No one at school
14. likes me."
Collect evidence: Next, collect evidence to support or negate this thought. Teach your child not
to make judgments about what to worry about based only on feelings. Feelings are not facts.
(Supporting evidence: "I had a hard time finding someone to sit with at lunch yesterday."
Negating evidence: "Sherry and I do homework together—she's a friend of mine.")
Challenge your thoughts: The best (and most entertaining) way to do this is to teach your
children to have a debate within themselves.
GoPractice! Think of one time your child was worrying this last week. Okay, once you have that
experience in mind, see if you can step into your child’s shoes and complete this exercise as if you
were them. The benefit of doing the exercise from the perspective of your child is that you will be
better able to teach them the 3cs later.
Write down the experience:
GoCatch:
What was the worried thought?
GoCollect:
What evidence supports this thought?
What evidence negates this thought?
GoChallenge:
Think of yourself in a debate setting. Now, write down a few sentences supporting the original
thought.
Finally, write down a few sentences negating the original thought. (You are taking the evidence
from above and writing it out into full sentence structure.) As a bonus, get up and actually play both
sides of the debate.
15. Allow Them to Worry
As you know, telling your children not to worry won't prevent them from doing so. If your children
could simply shove their feelings away, they would. But allowing your children to worry openly, in
limited doses, can be helpful. Create a daily ritual called "Worry Time" that lasts 10 to 15 minutes.
During this ritual encourage your children to release all their worries in writing. During worry time
there are no rules on what constitutes a valid worry—anything goes. When the time is up, close the
box and say good-bye to the worries for the day.
GoPractice! Create a worry box. Make this a fun exercise by using magazine cut outs and items you
16. can glue onto the box that represent “worry”. Remember, a little bit of humor and silliness goes a long
way to relieve excessive worrying. During worry time, allow 10-15 minutes for your child to write
down worries and slip them in the box. End worry time with a note of gratitude.
17. Help Them Go from What If to What Is
You may not know this, but humans are capable of time travel. In fact, mentally we spend a lot of time
in the future. For someone experiencing anxiety, this type of mental time travel can exacerbate the
worry. A typical time traveler asks what-if questions: "What if I can't open my locker and I miss
class?" "What if Suzy doesn't talk to me today?"
Research shows that coming back to the present can help alleviate this tendency. One effective
method of doing this is to practice mindfulness exercises. Mindfulness brings a child from what if to
what is. To do this, help your child simply focus on their breath for a few minutes.
18. GoPractice! Teach your child to breathe like a bee!
Read this to your child: Cover your ears with your thumbs and your eyes with your fingers. Keep your
lips closed and teeth slightly apart inside your mouth. Inhale deeply through your nose (1-2-3-4).
When you inhale, think about closing your throat just slightly so you can actually hear your breath.
Exhale slowly through your mouth (1-2-3-4) while making a low humming sound. Do it again!
19. Avoid Avoiding Everything that Causes Anxiety
Do your children want to avoid social events, dogs, school, planes or basically any situation that
causes anxiety? As a parent, do you help them do so? Of course! This is natural. The flight part of the
flight-fight-freeze response urges your children to escape the threatening situation. Unfortunately, in
the long run, avoidance makes anxiety worse.
So what's the alternative? Try a method we call laddering. Kids who are able to manage their worry
break it down into manageable chunks. Laddering uses this chunking concept and gradual exposure to
reach a goal.
20. Let's say your child is afraid of sitting on the swings in the park. Instead of avoiding this activity,
create mini-goals to get closer to the bigger goal (e.g., go to the edge of the park, then walk into the
park, go to the swings, and, finally, get on a swing). You can use each step until the exposure becomes
too easy; that's when you know it's time to move to the next rung on the ladder.
GoPractice! Set up a ladder.
What is the first mini-goal:
What is the second mini-goal:
What is the third mini-goal:
What is the fourth mini-goal:
What is the big goal?
As a bonus, illustrate the ladder. Remember, the big goal goes on the top rung.
21. Practice Self-Compassion
Watching your child suffer from anxiety can be painful, frustrating, and confusing. There is not one
parent that hasn't wondered at one time or another if they are the cause of their child's anxiety. Here's
the thing, research shows that anxiety is often the result of multiple factors (i.e., genes, brain
physiology, temperament, environmental factors, past traumatic events, etc.). Please keep in mind, you
did not cause your child's anxiety, but you can help them overcome it.
Toward the goal of a healthier life for the whole family, practice self-compassion. Remember, you're
not alone, and you're not to blame. It's time to let go of debilitating self-criticism and forgive yourself.
22. Love yourself. You are your child's champion.
GoPractice! Write a letter to yourself from the perspective of your best friend.
Dear {your name},
I need you to remember you are an amazing person. I think you've forgotten everything you do for
others, especially your children. Let me remind you…
23. A Letter From the Author
To the moms and dads out there reading this book:
I just wanted to say a heartfelt THANK YOU for reading this material. As a child growing up with
anxiety, I know my parents sought out resources such as this to help me. There were some good
books, but it was hard for my parents to translate all the techniques and material to me in a way that I
understood (and, frankly, that would engage me). I decided, when I grew up, I would work to create
some resources for children that helped them relieve their stress and worry in a fun way. That is what
the GoZen! Anxiety Relief Program for Children is all about. Your kids learn research-based coping
skills through engaging animations. You can learn all about it here – www.gozen.com.
If you have any questions or just want to reach out, I’m a real person and I work hard to respond to
each and every person that contacts me. You can email me directly at renee@gozen.com.
I look forward to getting to know you better.
To your child’s happiness,
