Scoliosis Awareness: Scoliosis is a spinal condition characterized by an abnormal sideways curvature of the spine. It can affect people of all ages but commonly develops during adolescence. The exact cause of Scoliosis is often unknown. However, it can frequently be caused by factors such as congenital disabilities, neuromuscular conditions, or trauma.The most noticeable sign of Scoliosis is an S- or C-shaped curve in the spine.

Scoliosis may sometimes cause back pain, muscle stiffness, or breathing difficulties if the curve is severe and affects lung capacity.Diagnosing Scoliosis involves a physical examination where a healthcare professional examines the spine's alignment and may request X-rays or other imaging tests to measure the curvature accurately. Treatment for Scoliosis depends on factors such as: the severity of the curve, the age of the individual, and the potential for progression all play a factor in the treatment.Living with Scoliosis can have emotional and psychological impacts, particularly during the teenage years when body image and self-esteem are crucial. Support from family, friends, and healthcare professionals is essential in helping individuals cope with the challenges of Scoliosis.While Scoliosis can pose physical and emotional hurdles, many individuals with scoliosis lead fulfilling lives. Individuals with Scoliosis can manage their condition, engage in physical activities, and pursue their passions with appropriate treatment, support, and self-care.It's essential to consult with a healthcare professional if you suspect Scoliosis or have concerns about your spinal health. They can provide an accurate diagnosis, recommend appropriate treatment options, and guide you in managing the condition effectively.

This helps him discover better ways of thinking about and responding to the obstacles and events he and his perpetual sidekick, Alex the duck, encounter.In the book, "I Can Do This," Xander is confronted with a shortfall of patience and determination, which leads to a mysterious accident with his favorite robot, and threatens to prevent him from performing his best on the upcoming science test. The readers will be introduced to the concept of perseverance, gain strategies to help them persevere through long tasks, and learn all about the water cycle alongside Xander. A bonus guide for making water cycle bracelets is included.The story is told from Xander's perspective, and therefore contains some of the grammatical structures and occasional incorrect words of a young child. The colorful text is humorous and recognizable to parents and teachers alike, and challenges students with the larger, interesting words with which our little ones often surprise us. The illustrations serve to further the story line and add an element of excitement as kids hunt to find Alex, often strategically hidden or curiously "up to something," in the image.

This will open doors of conversation with children (and adults alike) to help them recognize and strengthen their mental and emotional processing skills and discover that healthy mindsets can be developed, but also need to be practiced.

There are so many voices vying for our attention. We are constantly bombarded by news alerts, posts on social media, and people sharing their opinions. In the midst of our 'noisy' world, it can be difficult to hear the voice of God. God is always speaking to us and longs for us to hear and receive all that He has to say. This devotional is a collection of words spoken to me from God over a number of years that have shaped and transformed my life. His words have brought healing to my soul, encouraged me in moments of despair, and challenged me to pursue His presence like never before. It is my prayer that God will speak to you through this devotional and encourage you to keep growing and trusting in Him. At the end of each devotional, you will find a few sentences for you to declare over your day. The bible says in Proverbs 18:21 that, "e;Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits."e; There is such power released when we speak out God's promises and truths over our lives. As we hear from God, read His word and declare His truths, may we be drawn closer into His presence and become more like our Creator. I pray that as you go through this devotional that you would come to intimately know the One who created you, formed you, calls you by name, and loves you with an everlasting love. Have your own Bible close at hand to further explore the scriptures and freely receive all that God has to share with you.

"It's the only way, my dear Tobias," King Jesiah reminded his one and only son. "Yes. Yes, you must leave straightaway." The kind did not want for his son to have to go and leave the kingdom, but he knew it was the only way to rescue the Deplorables. They were a wicked bunch, those ones who dwelt outside of the kingdom, but King Jesiah loved them more than he loved his own life. He needed them to be brought into the land he had built for them. Sending his own son to rescue them was the only way to bring those broken and wayward people into the kingdom and keep them safe from the trecherous storm-the storm they refused to acknowledge was coming even though they'd been made aware of it many times. Tobias would do his best, but in the young prince's mind, it was doubtful that he would return to the kingdom-or his father-again.
