Spanish for Health Care and Human Services: An Interdisciplinary
Approach for Intermediate and Advanced Speakers underscores the
importance of the integration of the arts and intercultural
communication within medical training and well prepares students to
competently and compassionately serve Spanish-speaking clients and
patients. The book prioritizes students' development of
intercultural communication, recognizing that the ability to
mediate between a patient and health practitioner is at the core of
the health care fields. Rather than grouping content into lists of
words and expressions grouped by semantic fields, it employs a more
systematic, research-based approach, using communicative tasks to
actively engage students with spoken and written texts, while
promoting their linguistic and intercultural skills. Student
projects, based and inspired by authentic materials, give learners
the opportunity to explore topics of interest while also expanding
their linguistic abilities and connecting with Spanish-speaking
communities. Designed to effectively prepare students for complex
professional situations, Spanish for Health Care and Human Services
is an exemplary textbook for intermediate and advanced Spanish
speakers within health care and human services educational programs
and courses.
It's time to stop overthinking your relationship! The four-step
approach in this book will help you move beyond excessive
rumination, so you can rediscover joy, ease, and meaningful
connection with your partner. Rumination--obsessive thinking about
an idea, situation, or choice that can interfere with normal
life--is a common and destructive issue that can negatively impact
romantic relationships, whether you're just starting out or have
been in a committed relationship for years. If you overthink your
relationship and get stuck in cycles of anxiety, blame, or doubt,
your negative thinking and judgments about your partner may be
unfounded, unwanted, and may even threaten to tear apart an
otherwise healthy relationship. You may feel anxious, worried,
hopeless, and frustrated, but even if you know your overthinking is
a problem, it can be seriously hard to stop. In Stop Overthinking
Your Relationship, certified couples therapist Alicia Munoz draws
from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness to offer an
effective, four-step approach to reduce rumination and change
negative thinking patterns. By understanding both your own unique
attachment style--as well as your partner's--you'll learn how to
communicate more effectively, meet each other's needs, and focus on
what really matters in your relationship. Using the SLOW approach,
you'll learn how to: See rumination in process Label your
rumination cycle Open yourself and make space Welcome blocked
experiences This powerful blend of evidence-based psychology and
practical guidance will help you overcome the unwanted thoughts and
rumination that get in the way of trust and authenticity in your
relationship. The book also includes individual and shared
exercises, so you can "choose your own adventure" by working with
the techniques alone, with your partner, or using a combination of
both. By practicing the exercises in this user-friendly book,
you'll learn how to stop overthinking your relationship and
discover a newfound sense of security, confidence, and
wholeness--both as an individual and as part of a couple.
