She explains the clear, scientific link between spirituality and health and shows that children who have a positive, active relationship to spirituality: * are 40% less likely to use and abuse substances * are 60% less likely to be depressed as teenagers * are 80% less likely to have dangerous or unprotected sex * have significantly more positive markers for thriving including an increased sense of meaning and purpose, and high levels of academic success. Combining cutting-edge research with broad anecdotal evidence from her work as a clinical psychologist to illustrate just how invaluable spirituality is to a child's mental and physical health, Miller translates these findings into practical advice for parents, giving them concrete ways to develop and encourage their children's--as well as their own--well-being. In this provocative, conversation-starting book, Dr. Miller presents us with a pioneering new way to think about parenting our modern youth.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 203mmItem Length: 127mmItem Width: 22mmItem Weight: 422gAuthor: Lisa J MillerGenre: Society & CultureTopic: Social Sciences, Gender Sex & Relationships, Parenting, Philosophy & SpiritualityType: Criticism & InterpretationRelease Year: 2015 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
