College is risky business. Life is hurled into never-before
imagined freedom, independence, and choice. For many students,
college brings challenges and changes in nearly every area of life
physical, physiological, emotional, social, residential, financial,
spiritual, and sexual. College may well be the most volatile time
in a person's life. Attending college is bad for your health.
Statistically, young adults face more depression, anxiety, eating
disorders, and drug addiction than in any other time in their
lives. Schizophrenia emerges most often during this time. Suicide
rate is highest between 16 21 years. A college student's lifestyle
is a potential threat to their successful academic performance. The
good news is that, with the right tools, students can create a
college experience that is healthy, successful, and fits their own
unique selves. Lifestyles for Learning explores the direct
relationship between academic performance and key lifestyle
factors: food, sleep, stress, movement, creativity, connection,
addiction, and giving. It further discusses how lifestyle factors
are challenged by learning disabilities and other co-occurring
diagnoses, such as ADHD and behavioral disorders. Lifestyles for
Learning offers guidance to prepare every college student for
success. Peppered with humorous anecdotes and warm-hearted wisdom,
this is important reading for students entering college, as well as
for parents, educators, counselors, doctors, psychologists, and
educational consultants. It is also designed for supplemental
reading in college and high school courses.
