A Book and a Chat with Jason Alster

Jason Alster, fellow Connecticut and CAPA author makes a welcome return to today’s show to chat about his books and his new video books.

Whether you dream of moving across the US or to another continent or are returning home after a prolonged absence, Jason Alster’s "Leaving Home, Going Home, Returning Home" is an illuminating and inspiring read. This book is about the courage to change, to take risks, and to trust oneself regarding that place we wish to call home. Page after page, readers will discover the keys—and occasionally the secrets—to fitting in.

As Jason shared with us during the show, the book is a guidebook of sorts, not just for Jewish readers, but for anybody who has moved from one culture to another or interested in learning about Israeli culture.

Jason has now also produced two video books, both of which are available at Amazon video download.

Being In Control:

Being In Control is a method for increasing relaxed concentration in the classroom combined with accelerated learning strategies to help all students reach their potential and achieve higher grades. This method is especially successful with ADHD , Dyslexia , and Test Anxiety.

Anyone Can Improve Their Own Handwritingwas originally on Youtube, where this video had over 40,000 hits. Designed to help anyone with people who have messy handwriting and penmanship it is now also available as an Amazon video download.

From self help to books about Isriel Jasons approach is holistic and combines relaxed concentration techniques, accelerated learning strategies and study strategies with coaching. Jason is well rounded and also works as an artist as well as a respected author and publisher.

So listen to an interesting and hugely entertaining show as I spend thirty minutes sharing "A Book and a Chat with today Jason Alster"

A Book and a Chat with Stephanie Vlahov

There is a saying… “if Einstein were alive today, he would be put on Ritalin." When you get down to it that is pretty close to the truth, just imagine what they’d say about Picasso’s painting, when schools think if a person paints the sky purple there might be something wrong with the student.

My guest on today’s show is Stephanie Vlahov, taking from her own experience with her son she wrote her book The Active Creative Child - Parenting In Perpetual Motion to empower parents to question the casually used diagnosis of ADHD. And, to then see their child’s precocity in a whole new way while retaining their sanity!

About “The Active Creative Child”.

The energy of these children can be astounding; their curiosity boundless. Channeling that energy is not only helpful but necessary. Supporting that curiosity is essential! This book provides specific hints for coping, establishing realistic boundaries, avoiding labels and easy judgements (like having ADHD) where any child is concerned. Written in an upbeat style, the author draws from her experience with her own active/creative children and those of others to present a handbook of encouragement and genuine help.

As she says…

We are failing our kids with ADHD by over diagnosing them and overmedicating them - ignoring their inherent creativity and "out of the box" thinking.

So sit back and listen to today's thoroughly interesting and entertaining show as I host today's "A Book and a Chat with Stephanie Vlahov".
