Physician and psychologist Heidi Feldman is a pioneer in the field of developmental behavioral pediatrics who says that the world's understanding of childhood disability is changing and so too are the ways we approach it. Where once institutionalization was common, today we find integrative, family-centered approaches, charting a more humane, hopeful path forward. For example, for children born prematurely with increased likelihood of disability, increasing skin-to-skin contact – what is called “kangaroo care” – can literally reshape that child's brain development, she tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.Have a question for Russ?

In an age dominated by digital screens and instant gratification, the challenge of keeping children engaged in meaningful activities has never been more pressing. As parents juggle work and family responsibilities, the temptation to resort to screens for entertainment has become almost ubiquitous. However, this reliance on digital devices has raised concerns about children's physical and mental well-being, leading to issues such as obesity, stress, anxiety, and hyperactivity. In response to these challenges, innovative solutions are emerging that prioritize screen-free, active learning for children, aiming to foster their development in a holistic manner. One such solution is the concept of a screen-free game console called Spin and Play, designed to engage children physically and cognitively without the use of screens.Screen-Free, Active Learning for ChildrenThe innovative approach of the Spin and Play recognizes the importance of keeping children active while also stimulating their minds. The game console features a connected mat that children can control through simple pressure, encouraging physical movement and coordination. The inclusion of a rotating rod system allows children to manipulate direction and speed, promoting dexterity and mobility. This hands-on interaction not only makes the experience fun but also addresses the growing concern over sedentary lifestyles associated with excessive screen time.Moreover, the game console incorporates cognitive mini-games that challenge children with tasks such as mathematics, fostering multitasking abilities and critical thinking skills. By integrating educational elements into the gameplay, children are not only entertained but also engaged in learning that complements their physical activities. This dual focus on physical and cognitive development is crucial in an era where traditional educational methods are often overshadowed by digital distractions.Flexibility and ExpandabilityThe Spin and Play further evolves by linking the gameplay to storytelling and adventure. Each game is accompanied by a book that provides a narrative context, allowing children to immerse themselves in a world of imagination while participating in physical challenges. This integration of literature with interactive gameplay encourages reading and comprehension skills, reinforcing the idea that learning can be both enjoyable and dynamic. The use of artificial intelligence in crafting these stories adds an additional layer of engagement, ensuring that the adventures are not only entertaining but also educational.One of the most compelling aspects of this approach is its flexibility and adaptability. The pin and Play console can be tailored to various themes, from space exploration to environmental conservation, allowing children to explore diverse topics while remaining physically active. This versatility not only keeps the content fresh and engaging but also aligns with the educational needs of different age groups and interests. Schools and educational institutions are already recognizing the potential of such interactive learning tools, seeking to incorporate them into their curricula to enhance student engagement and learning outcomes.Conclusion: Screen-Free Playtime that TeachesIn conclusion, the shift towards screen-free, active learning for children is not just a trend; it is a necessary evolution in how we approach education and child development in a digital age. By prioritizing physical activity, cognitive engagement, and imaginative storytelling, Spin and Play offers a holistic approach to learning that addresses the multifaceted challenges of modern childhood. As we continue to navigate the complexities of parenting in a technology-driven world, embracing such alternatives can provide our children with the tools they need to thrive physically, mentally, and creatively.Interview by Marlo Anderson of The Tech Ranch.Sponsored by: Get $5 to protect your credit card information online with Privacy.

Partnered with a Survivor: David Mandel and Ruth Stearns Mandel
Send us a textIn this thought-provoking first episode of 2025, David and Ruth explore how displacement-based responses to domestic violence reflect and reinforce gender double standards while often creating additional vulnerabilities for survivors and their children. Recording from the Azores, they examine how the expectation that victims must leave their homes to find safety places unfair burdens on survivors while failing to hold perpetrators accountable.Key discussion points include:How displacement-based responses arose historically when women had limited legal and economic rightsWhy forcing survivors to leave their homes, financial assets, and support networks creates new vulnerabilitiesHow displacement can enable post-separation coercive control and increase risks to childrenThe limitations of defining "safety" only in terms of immediate physical danger or lethalityWhy systems need to expand their definition of safety to include stability, wellbeing, and survivor autonomyHow child protection and other systems can inadvertently punish survivors who don't leave while failing to hold perpetrators accountable for creating unsafe conditionsDavid and Ruth discuss concrete ways to move beyond displacement-based practices, including:Centering survivor choice, autonomy and definitions of safety/wellbeingHolding perpetrators accountable for how their behavior disrupts family stabilityCreating a fuller range of intervention options beyond emergency shelterReframing "failure to protect" to focus on perpetrators' choices that endanger childrenCheck out these related episodesSeason 5 Episode 12: Challenging the Gospel of Sacrifice: Faith, Domestic Abuse, and Institutional TransformationSeason 5 Episode 9: Partnering vs. Practicing: The Hidden Bias in Professional Crisis WorkSeason 5 Episode 8: The Myth of the Domestic Violence Incident Now available!

0:00Understanding the Impact of Technology and Lifestyle on Mental HealthStephen Peters shared a case study of a client who successfully moved from high medication for ADHD to being medication-free after two years, focusing on emotional regulation and strength conditioning. He pointed out the detrimental effects of excessive screen time on concentration and mental health, especially among teenagers, who are conditioned to process information quickly. Peters stressed the importance of moderation in lifestyle choices, including technology use, diet, and social activities.10:37Understanding Movement Patterns in ChildrenThe conversation focuses on how to recognize and assist children who may struggle with movement. Stephen Peters explains that certain reflexes, such as the ATNR and Babinski reflex, play a significant role in a child's physical development. He notes that poor movement patterns can lead to emotional instability and increased injury risk, but with proper support and integration of these reflexes, children's movement abilities can improve.15:15Understanding Primitive Reflexes in Youth SportsStephen Peters explains how primitive reflexes can hinder young athletes' performance and lead to injuries if not addressed. He advocates for incorporating specific movement patterns into training regimens to help mitigate these issues. Michael Wright questions how receptive medical professionals are to this approach, emphasizing the importance of collaboration between different specialists in supporting athletes.31:45Understanding Skill Acquisition and Neurological Responses in SportsMichael Wright and Stephen Peters explore the balance between block practice and live play in developing sports skills. Peters explains that block training is essential for building neurological patterns, while live play helps athletes apply those skills in high-pressure situations. He warns that without sufficient practice, athletes may struggle with decision-making when faced with stress.43:04Understanding the Impact of Stress and Breathing on Emotional HealthStephen Peters discussed how physical reflexes and breathing are foundational to emotional health, pointing out that many people in the Western world do not breathe effectively. He explained that stress can elevate breathing rates, which is a natural response to perceived threats. Michael Wright expressed interest in the emotional aspects of the conversation, prompting Peters to elaborate on the brain's role in regulating bodily systems.45:14Understanding Passion and Support in Autism CareStephen Peters expressed his commitment to helping autistic children through his work at Brain X Movement, describing how he feels empowered by witnessing their progress. He articulated the significance of neuroplasticity and the environment in fostering personal growth. Michael Wright contributed by sharing his own experiences in inclusive sports, illustrating the profound emotional impact of enabling children to achieve milestones.1:00:18Understanding the Fight or Flight Response in Learning and DevelopmentStephen Peters explains how the fight or flight response can hinder decision-making in stressful situations, particularly in sports. He advocates for starting with unopposed practice to help players recognize patterns before introducing opposition. Peters acknowledges the expertise of his colleague Bernie in football but stresses the necessity of a neurological approach to learning. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In today's episode, Matt Van Der Laar joins us for a deep conversation on the topics of obesity, processed foods, and the shame-driven messaging often found on social media. We explore how fear-mongering and oversimplified comparisons—like equating processed foods to smoking cigarettes—overlook deeper issues such as emotional regulation, mental health, and societal factors that contribute to obesity.We share our frustration with harmful narratives that ignore the true root causes of obesity, and we highlight the roles of empathy, proper education, support systems, and even GLP-1s in making lasting, meaningful changes. We also discuss how parenting plays a pivotal role in building healthy relationships with food and movement, emphasizing that the obesity conversation must move beyond shaming and judgment to focus on support, mental health, and practical solutions for both children and adults.“It's almost never the food. It's the way we're using food to cope with everything that we have going on in our lives.”- Matt Van Der Laar“If you're only taking these drugs, but you're not addressing the mental and emotional side of things, then it's just another fad diet for you.”- Matt Van Der LaarThis week on Here's the Deal:The harmful comparison of processed foods to smoking and how it perpetuates fear and shameHow obesity and being overweight is more about emotional regulation, coping mechanisms, and access and affordability than just food and “laziness”The role of GLP-1 medications for those who need them, and the stigmatization that surrounds their useWhy movement, not just diet, is crucial for combating obesity in adults and childrenThe importance of empathy and understanding people's unique struggles with food and healthThe significance of community involvement, such as community gardens, in helping children and families access healthier foodsHow parents can help their children develop a healthy relationship with all foods, including highly processed onesHow parents can help their kids develop a healthy love of movementConnect with Matt Van Der Laar:Matt on Mindful Eating (podcast episode with Brooke)Matt Van Der Laar on InstagramMatt Van Der Laar on FacebookFit Fat TrainingCut the Crap with Beth and Matt PodcastThanks for tuning in to this week's episode of Here's the Deal: Fitness, Nutrition, and Mindset for People Who Don't Want Life to Suck, where we challenge the common understanding of what it means and what it takes to be fit and healthy!

Trigger warning: domestic violenceToday we are joined by someone who has truly lived a life of challenges, lessons and intriguing turns.From navigating violence in the home as a teenager, to being a woman in the military when they had only just started accepting women back into the technical fields, Stephanie Burns has seen a lot.In 1973, Stephanie became one of the first women trained as an engineer by the U.S. Army Signal Corp. Graduating #1 in her class, she received orders to be trained as a military instructor. After leaving in 1976, she worked in corporate roles before starting her own training company in 1981, with NASA as her first client. Others, such as, ABC-TV and presenting at computer Expos in cities throughout the US followed, focusing on helping adults adapt to the desktop computer revolution. The experience working with adults as students fuelled her intense curiosity about the development of new skills and knowledge, taking advantage of the adult brain and nervous system. This led her to make a complete shift from the tech industry to the fields of human behaviour and adult education. A move to Australia in 1987 led to the development of the Learning to Learn program and many others, presented in corporate, government and education sectors. This program, along with others, and numerous books, have impacted many thousands.In this episode she shares:Her journey to getting into the militaryWhy she became an independent contractorWhat made her realise that adults in school behave like childrenThe challenge of teaching higher ranking adults in the militaryThe influence of Stephanie's father and intense pursuitsThe importance of a supportive communityHow a family change led her mother to abuseWhat happened when her mum thought she was doing drugs and submitted her into a heroin outpatient centreHer journey to find her dad at 15 when she was kicked out of her mum's homeKey Quotes“I thought, she's gonna bloody kill me. She's gonna kill me and she's not gonna know she did it."“In my first class were 30 men, they all outranked me, they were older than I was and they were physically bigger.”More about Stephanie BurnsFind her books and email info via her website or go to her facebook or linkedin.You can get involved with the podcast onlineOn facebook in our community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/challengesthatchangeusOr on Instagram: @challengesthatchangeusIf you want to contact the podcast, email us here: support@challengesthatchangeus.comOr check out our website: www.Challengesthatchangeus.comIf you want to find out more about what Ali does, check out her business via the website: http://www.trialtitudeperformance.com.auFor her other business you can find it through the websites: www.altitudefitnessarmidale.com.au Hosted on Acast.
