Students may experience a range of pleasant and negative emotions as they return to school after the summer break. For example, they may feel happy to see their friends yet be concerned about their grades or being bullied, among other stressors.

Students' general mental health is deteriorating. In this guide, we'll explain why mental health is important and offer practical ideas to help students and caregivers have a good school year.

Why Mental Health Matters

According to a study published in the journal Child Psychiatry & Human Development, mental health predicts academic and adult achievement. The findings indicated that mental health has a significant impact on academic achievement. According to the report, children with mental health difficulties are more likely to have negative educational outcomes such as bad grades, reading delays, repeating years, and dropping out of school.

Mental Health Challenges Students Face and Their Symptoms

Back-to-school jitters are normal, but the CDC advises that severe feelings of anxiety and despair may indicate a diagnosable disease. If you are concerned about your child's anxiety, social anxiety, or depression, consult a school counselor or a psychotherapy center in your area to obtain an accurate diagnosis.

Anxiety

According to the CDC, school-age children who continue to experience fear that interferes with social interactions and academic performance may be labeled with anxiety. Look for the following symptoms:

• Sweating
• Pounding heart
• Shallow, fast breathing
• Shakiness
• Dizziness

Social Anxiety

Social anxiety can develop in children who are afraid of unfamiliar circumstances. They may have severe shyness or avoid their peers. In extreme circumstances, they may cease talking altogether, a condition known as selective mutism. Other signs of social anxiety include headaches, nausea, and stomachaches.

Depression

Depression is more than just melancholy. Depression can develop when children feel helpless or hopeless consistently. Additional symptoms include the following:

• Irritability
• Not being able to maintain attention during school
• Disinterest in doing fun things or not enjoying them
• Eating too much or too little
• Sleeping too much or too little
• Low energy and feeling sluggish
• High energy and feeling restless
• Self-injury
• Sadness
• Self-destructive behavior

Fear of School

According to Stanford Medicine, excessive dread of school, known as scolionophobia, can cause some youngsters to skip school. Some youngsters may be stressed due to a recent transfer, school change, the death of a family member, or divorce. Others may have a perceived fear of school due to safety concerns.

Some children dread physical harm on the bus to and from school, as well as an attack during the school day. According to the National Center for Education Statistics, approximately 5% of children aged 12 to 18 expressed fear of danger at school.

Children may also fear emotional injury, such as perceived meanness from their instructor, bullying, and social anxiety while interacting with peers.

Back-to-School Mental Health Issues in the Household

Academic difficulties can lead to strain in your household. Excessive academic demands from parents and instructors can raise the probability of child-parent conflict and potentially worsen a student's bad behavior.

Finding the correct method to help your child flourish in and out of the classroom requires a delicate balance. Regular check-ins with your child are beneficial for determining how they are doing academically, socially, and emotionally.

It is critical to help your child cope with their feelings in healthy ways. You can accomplish this by listening to and acknowledging their emotions, and encouraging them to express themselves through language, art, music, or other creative activities.

Healthy Habits That Support Mental Wellness

In addition to regular check-ins with your child, establishing certain healthy behaviors will help your family transition into a back-to-school routine. Sticking to them can help you feel better all year.

Nutrition

Eating a well-balanced meal and staying hydrated are essential for preparing your student for success.

Healthy dietary options to ensure pupils have a well-rounded diet include:

• Colorful entire fruits and vegetables.
• Fat-free or low-fat milk and plenty of water
• A selection of seeds, nuts, and beans
• Whole grain bread.

Movement

Children who move during the day, whether through recess or team sports, are better prepared to succeed in the classroom.

Sleep

Good sleep quality is essential for maintaining your mental health. Inadequate sleep might harm your mood. A steady sleep schedule allows students to get through their busy days.

Scheduling

Children thrive when they understand what their expectations are throughout the day. Maintaining a steady routine can make your youngster feel more in control and less worried.

You are healthy only when you are both physically and emotionally fit and that that is possible only when you take care of your mental health. It is a time when the WHO. UNICEF and other agencies are putting emphasis on mental health.

That would mean that you have to be looking for a clinic for mental health Lexington KY where you can get the treatment and you must know why you need one with a sense of urgency.

• The sense of urgency for mental health:

The fact of the matter is that a lot of people do not know that they are suffering from mental issues until things go out of other hands and that is why you must make sure that you consult experts as soon as you see the symptoms.

A-Ma or Playing the Glass Bead Game with Pythagoras, a Historical Fiction set in the 17th century Macau, China Now only eur1.99

by Nataša Pantović

A-Ma or Playing the Glass Bead Game with Pythagoras, a Historical Novel by Nataša Pantović, Year: 2017, Publisher: Artof4Elements. Paperback: 207 pages, Size: 6"x9, a historical fiction novel set in the 17th century Chinese Macao. A mystical journey of Portuguese settlers to Macao, Jesuit Priests, Dutch traders, Chinese governors, and artists, set in the Age of Enlightenment during the Dutch attack to Macao in 1622, the Reform of Chinese Calendar in 1630-s, with Father Adam Schall's appointment to the Chinese Board of Mathematicians during 1650-s. "Was Athens black at the time of the ancient Greeks or was it full of Slavs that during the Dark Ages were not allowed to have their own European history? All my characters do have strong political, ideological and moral commitments, their ideas are ground-breaking; it is a science against the Church, male against female, East against West conversation. Holding up a mirror to society of ancient worlds can be fanatical or too obvious within the storytelling environment, so I had to break the rhythm with myths, with art, with dreams. This novel is, of course, about the search for truth, but from the goddess perspective, about love and union, of the priestesses that have given us the first commandment “Do not kill"” Nataša in an interview with Sunday Times. The main protagonist is Ama, an African alchemist, Goddess, a guru, a lover, a story-teller that inspires and gathers artists, preachers, priests, philosophers from all around the world within the magic settings of her coffee house.

Learning from Ancient Worlds Mystics about creativity and creative thought. When East meets West in Platonism, Neo-Platonism, Pythagoras, and the Philosophers of Ancient Greece, seen through the art and mysticism of saints, scientists and sages, the likes of Leonardo da Vinci, Plato, Jung, Krishnamurti, or Aurobindo... The subconscious material or mind chitta has its own "body" and while ascending the Spiral of Consciousness we realize how we relate to each other in our drive for Goodness...

In Malta, for around 1,500 years, flourished a unique culture that has built stone temples using megalithic stones above and under the ground, worshiping Death, Mother Goddess, Creation and Dreams.

Risking it all.

Miriam is forty and frustrated. In an attempt to enhance her living-just-to-breathe life she joins some neighbours protesting a highway bypass that will destroy Eagleridge Bluffs. Not only are the Bluffs her special sanctuary, but they’re also the beautiful home of rare and endangered plants and animals.

The protest gains the support of environmental organizations including the attention of a group of eco-radicals lead by an enigmatic young man named Zaahir.

Miriam is mesmerized by this charismatic leader and sees him as someone that can save her as well as the Bluffs. But is Zaahir just using Miriam to help him further his radical political agenda?

As legal channels fail and civil disobedience falters, Miriam is seduced into the murky world of eco-terrorism.

"... a thrilling read, full of action and romance with a few twists thrown in for good measure."
"Raglin has constructed something special here, bringing the book to life with his wonderful descriptions and great way of drawing the characters out."
                                                              FIVE STARS - Readers' Favorite Book Reviews

"I loved this book! It had everything from romance to action, and it also addressed some important environmental issues which I have great interest in. I look forward to reading the other books in the Eco-Warriors series.
- FIVE STARS - S. McConville, Goodreads review

"Rod Raglin crafts a wonderful, thrilling tale with Eagleridge Bluffs (Loving the Terrorist). His unique author's voice shines through in this lovely novel, with the characters of Zahir and Miriam springing to life from its pages."
- FIVE STARS - L. Newman, Goodreads review

"This is a short but fulfilling read. The author has a unique voice and a great ability to tell a story. You are captured from the first page to the last and want more when it's over."
- FOUR STARS - Melissa, Goodreads review

   Timely topic presented through believable circumstance - FIVE STARS
   Raglin is a master at breathing life into his characters. Every individual is meticulously developed, each with their own flaws and merits. Relatable interactions are seamlessly woven together in this heart-rending glimpse into how human greed and our relentless push for immediate gratification can destroy irreplaceable natural beauty and crucial environmental diversity. And how believing in a dream can end in joy.
