Social Media Celebrity Writes Best-selling Book Addressing Stereotype Of "The Angry Black Woman”

Charlotte, NC, August 20, 2018 ― Charlotte pastor and face of the popular Car Chronicles Movement, Jameliah Young-Mitchell has penned The Death of the Angry Black Woman—a book published by Warren Publishing that discusses stereotypes faced by African-American women. The book released at #1 on Amazon.com for New Releases in the Anger Management category.

Anger can get the best of many women, but when anger erupts into rage and leads to shouting, fighting, and name-calling, it's time to look within and make a change. The Death of the Angry Black Woman boldly acknowledges stereotypes faced by women in the black community and uncovers the seeds that lead many to live anger-filled lives. Instilled with Biblical scripture and jaw-dropping honesty, this debut book from Pastor Jameliah Young-Mitchell, the voice behind the popular Car Chronicles Movement, will empower you to bury your anger, reject false labels, and embrace the new you.

"I wrote this book for all the women out there who are dealing with anger that they have yet to find the source of,” said Young-Mitchell. "Many women in the black community come from backgrounds of abuse, mistreatment, violence––and they become fighters. Through my book I hope to be that voice in their head, the one we all hear but rarely acknowledge, encouraging them to move on, let go of anger, reject hateful labels, embrace their powerful femininity, and live the life God intended them to live.”

Pastor Jameliah Young-Mitchell is the daughter of the late Evangelist Violetta B. Young and Pastor James I. Young, and grew up in Brooklyn, NY, as the youngest of four kids. She has preached across the United States and internationally and is the pastor of Unity Church Charlotte.

Far From Theoretical, Suicide Prevention Treatment Is Available Now

Henderson, NV, August 20, 2018 — You have watched your nephew slide into a depression that seems irreversible. Your spouse wakes up each night with night terrors brought on by post-traumatic stress. A student in your class has gone from shy to reclusive, refusing to go outside his home. Despite caring families that have tried everything, the problems remain.

Matthew D. Dovel has dedicated his life's work to understanding and preventing suicide, depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress, and believes he has found the solution. Dovel, the founder and president of the nonprofit International Suicide Prevention, has developed a noninvasive, nonmedical treatment program called Nu-Rekall® which trains individuals to rid themselves of emotional suffering and suicidal thoughts.

"In 2005, I delivered suicide intervention training at the Cree Reservation in Ouje-Bougoumou, Canada,” he says. "The 4 Phase technique reduced suicides from one nonfatal event and one fatal outcome per month to zero fatal outcomes in the subsequent six months.”

Dovel's system, called Zero Suicide System/Nu-Rekall®, is based on an understanding of how traumatic memories, ranked according to intensity, are stored in the brain. By altering this hierarchy and assigning an intense memory a lesser "rank” on the scale, the sufferer causes the memory to slip from the conscious mind. Dovel has been lecturing and training his method since 2015.

"I want to propagate this information to create a global shift in humanity and save as many lives as possible before my time here has ended,” Dovel says.

The painful truth, right now, is that we can’t solve autism. So how we can better support children with autism and their families today?

Distinguished autism scientist Bryna Siegel, Ph.D. has devoted her career to this question. Her answer, as laid out in her new book  The Politics of Autism (Oxford University Press, September 3, 2018), includes resetting today’s misguided priorities to better meet the real and immediate needs of most most individuals and families living with autism.

Here are 3 fundamental changes in mindset and policy she recommends:

1. Acknowledge that autism doesn’t disappear after childhood—but for most, will require a lifetime of special help. 

All too often, parents hold onto the belief that a fully functioning child is locked away inside their child with autism and can be coaxed out with techniques such as rapid prompting (RPM) or, facilitated communication (F/C). Investing all of one’s hope and energy in attempts to “cure” a child’s autism can deflect from steps that will help improve a child’s—and a family’s— present and future quality of life.

2. Approach autism as a family wellness issue—not just one child’s treatment checklist

Beyond selecting treatments and chauffeuring between therapies, parents need to understand how their child on the autism spectrum operates. With the right training and support, they can then better integrate the child into the flow of family life, which will help reduce anxiety and depression, foster a stronger relationship between spouses and create a better environment for siblings.

3. Provide job training, not special education

College is not the right path for all pupils, even if they’ve received special education throughout school. Above all, we need to improve the chances of future independence for children on the autism spectrum. This begins with employment. Instead of focusing on education, it’s time we figured out how to provide vocational training and apprenticeships to prepare individuals on the autism spectrum for work that leverages their unique strengths and is adaptable to typical autistic social weaknesses.

GoodLife Fitness upgrades fitness equipment at two UHN cardiac rehab facilities

TORONTO, ON – During the past week, GoodLife Fitness has delivered more than $330,000 in new fitness equipment to Toronto Western Hospital and Toronto Rehab’s Rumsey Centre. The two locations are connected with Peter Munk Cardiac Centre (PMCC) and provide services to more than 2,500 patients annually as part of University Health Network’s (UHN’s) Cardiovascular Prevention and Rehabilitation Program. New treadmills, upright and recumbent bikes and elliptical machines will upgrade the fitness facilities at these locations to help patients connect with physical activity as part of their continuum of care.

“We know the critical role that physical activity plays in heart health and rehabilitation. That’s why in 2012 we collaborated with UHN and PMCC to establish the GoodLife Fitness Centre of Excellence in Cardiovascular Rehabilitation Medicine,” said David ‘Patch’ Patchell-Evans, founder and CEO of GoodLife Fitness. “Since then, GoodLife has been proud to support the incredible medical professionals at the PMCC with the best equipment and expertise to reinforce the continuum of care for patients with heart disease by introducing fitness to their rehabilitation.”

For patients in the Cardiovascular Prevention and Rehabilitation Program, the collaboration with GoodLife Fitness means greater access to the latest cardiac rehabilitation and preventative techniques and equipment; a supportive environment to strive for their rehabilitation goals, overall improved health and wellness and a significantly decreased likelihood of another cardiac episode.

According to Dr. Paul Oh, medical director of UHN’s Cardiovascular Prevention and Rehabilitation Program and GoodLife Fitness Chair in Cardiovascular Rehabilitation and Prevention, patients recover more easily and are less likely to suffer further cardiac issues if they build exercise into their routines.

“Exercise is a vital part of living with heart disease – people who exercise have a much higher chance of successful recovery and improved long-term outcomes than those who don't,” says Dr. Oh. “Thanks to GoodLife’s ongoing support we’ve been able to provide patients with a great space to work on their heart health through exercise.”

Tony Cesta is part of the cardiac rehabilitation program and has been working with cardiac rehab exercise therapists to build up an exercise routine along with his recovery treatment. Despite being physically active all his life, 62-year-old Cesta learned 10 years ago that he had a blockage in one of his main arteries. When the blockage grew to 90 percent, he was admitted to the hospital to have a stent installed.

Before the procedure, Cesta never felt any chest pain and was exercising at a high level.  After the procedure, it was important to allow the stent to heal, while resuming a more moderate level of exercise.

Now, Cesta is halfway through the six-month cardiac rehab program. As a lifelong hockey player and long-distance runner, Cesta’s challenge is different from many patients. He has received a prescription for exercise and is learning how to regulate and control his heart during physical activity. He has also reintroduced resistance training to his fitness routine to balance out the cardio.

Cardiac rehabilitation patient Tony Cesta does his cardio workout on one of the 15 exercise bikes GoodLife Fitness delivered to Toronto Rehab’s Rumsey Centre this week.

“Most patients are recovering from more serious heart issues including heart attacks, bypass surgery, and transplants. Some have not exercised before and are starting from scratch. I have always been very active, so for me, the challenge is to build up my tolerance and not push myself too hard,” says Cesta. “I wear a heart rate monitor and pay attention to my breathing to make sure I’m exercising in a safe zone. That control is what I needed for peace of mind and to recover effectively. I want to know I’m not doing damage.”

With the help of the cardiac rehabilitation program, Cesta hopes to get back to his previous fitness level and continue being active. He says he’s benefitting from the expertise and access to equipment at the Rumsey Centre.

“I’m running and cycling five times a week, as well as doing resistance exercises twice a week. I’m experimenting with heavier weights and increasing my cardio endurance with guidance. The program helps me understand my limits,” he says.

In 2012, GoodLife Fitness committed $5 million to the PMCC with the goal of transforming the lives of Canadians affected by heart disease and helping prevent this reality for many.

In addition to establishing the GoodLife Fitness Centre of Excellence in Cardiovascular Rehabilitation Medicine, the collaboration resulted in Dr. Paul Oh becoming the GoodLife Fitness Chair in Cardiovascular Rehabilitation and Prevention in 2014.

Funds are used to revitalize the space and update the equipment at rehabilitation facilities throughout UHN, and to fund innovative research in cardiovascular care, allowing UHN to improve patient outcomes, both here and around the world

The recent wave of international migration has reinforced the growing trend in diversity and need to focus on immigrant children’s well-being. A new OECD report, “The Resilience of Students with an Immigrant Background: Factors that Shape Well-Being,” underlines the significant role education systems, schools and teachers can play in helping immigrant students integrate into their new communities. The report focuses not only on students’ academic achievements but also on “their social, emotional and motivational well-being.” In an interview with CMRubinWorld founder C.M. Rubin, report author Francesca Borgonovi, an analyst at the OECD Directorate for Education and Skills, also discusses the important role of an arts and sports education. Borgonovi notes that “providing both arts and sports in schools are critical to support the growing diversity arising from international migration” and that these subjects “can be particularly beneficial for students with learning disabilities and from disadvantaged backgrounds.”
