We have learned to believe that our back is, indeed, that which reinforces us, that which buttresses us, that which holds us up. Other phrases—“Back in the good old days,” or “In the back of my mind, I believe…,” or “Before you hire him, do a background check,” or “Do you have the back issues of the magazine?,” or “One day you will look back and be glad you did this”—remind us that in our language the word back also equates with the past. Our back, therefore, must hold the joy and the sorrow, the strength and the fear, the power and the insecurity of our yesteryears. Thus our mind believes that “back” represents both support and the past. So, when I sense the familiarity of being unsupported, when I feel out-of- control or perceive fear, this thought-sense with its entourage of emotions floods my defenseless subconscious mind. Since no one can show where the mind ends and the body begins, what happens in my mind must be reflected and manifested in my body. What I feel determines how my body responds. If I feel unsupported, unstable, or burdened by the past, my back must show it to me by giving me discomfort and pain. It is impossible to facilitate true and long-term healing in my body or the body of my students by merely doing some stretching exercises. The mind, the body, and the emotions must all be addressed. Having suffered intense back pain originating from two herniated discs and severe sacroiliac misalignment, I know from personal experience that true healing of the back must be a multi-pronged process. Using asana and specialty traction devices which I designed, I was able to ease my lower back pain, yet it would spring up unashamedly and humiliate me when I was least expecting it! Only after 9 Yoga for a Happy Back dealing with the entire mind–body–emotion–spirit continuum did my intense lower back pain begin to fade into memory. It’s the scientific magic of Purna Yoga,™ which includes Savitri’s Heartfull™ Meditation, Philosophy, and Lifestyle. Savitri and I have successfully treated thousands of students with lower back pain. This is why, in the work that Rachel Krentzman presents in this book, you will learn to address more than the mere symptoms in your body. After all, are we not far more than merely flesh and bones? As a teacher of yoga it is your duty to help your students by addressing them as whole human beings, not solely as a body.

  • Ectodermal Dysplasia Syndrome with Cleft Palate, Hypodontia, Metatarsus Adductus and Imperforate Anus: a New Syndrome?
    Ectodermal Dysplasia Syndrome ORAL MEDICINE ECTODERMAL DYSPLASIA SYNDROME WITH CLEFT PALATE, HYPODONTIA, METATARSUS ADDUCTUS AND IMPERFORATE ANUS: A NEW SYNDROME? 1UMAIR KHAN, BDS, C-Radiology (UK), MSc Oral Medicine (EDI-UCL, UK),MIAOMT (USA), MBSOM (UK) 2RABIA AZIZ, BDS 3GHAZALA HASSAN, BDS 4TAHIRA ZAFAR, BDS 5SAHAR IQRAR, BDS ABSTRACT Ectodermal dysplasia constitute a large group of rare, heterogenous (under clinical and genetic aspects), congenital/hereditary disorders characterized by a constellation of findings involving a primary defect (hypoplasia or aplasia) in at least two embryonic ectodermal-derived tissues including the teeth, skin, appendageal structures, hair, nails, nerve cells, eccrine glands, sebaceous glands and parts of the eye (conjunctiva), ear, and certain other structures. More than 192 distinct disorders have been described. The most common Ectodermal dysplasias are X-linked recessive hypohidrotic/ anhidrotic type known as Christ-Siemens Touraine syndrome with the gene mapping to Xq12-q13 and hydrotic type known as Clouston’s syndrome. Several ED syndromes may manifest in association with midfacial defects, mainly cleft palate and/or lip. Hypodontia of the primary and permanent dentition is the most common oral finding. This study presents four cases of the same family, two suffering from Ectodermal dysplasia along with hypodontia and cleft palate, one of which also presents metatarsus adductus and imperforate anus (proband) and the remaining two out of four with hypodontia in the absence of ectodermal dysplasia, one of which also presents metatarsus adductus (elder sibling) with imperforate anus in the other (youngest sibling). Oral and Maxillofacial Physicians & Dentists can be the first to diagnose ectodermal dysplasia due to the presence of specific facio-oral features and absence of teeth respectively.

    ODESSA NATIONAL MEDICAL UNIVERSITY Department of propedeutics of pediatrics Lecture 8. Anatomic and physiological features of bone and muscular system at children. Semiotics of defeat and diseases of bone and muscular system. Substantiation of the topic: • Knowledge of the anatomical and physiological features of the bony and muscle system in children. Semiotics of the affections and diseases of the bony and muscle system is an actual problem due to its prevalence, diversity of clinical symptoms, often hidden proceeding with the following progress. • Development of bone precursor cells. Bone precursor cells are divided into developmental stages, which are 1. mesenchymal stem cell, 2. pre-osteoblast, 3. osteoblast, and 4. mature osteocytes, and 5. osteoclast. • The bonу ѕyѕtem (skeleton, ѕkeletal ѕyѕtem) beginѕ to develop at the second month of the intrauterine life. •The cartilage tissue is formed from the congeѕtion of mesenchуmal cellѕ, in which on 5- 7-th week the pointѕ of oѕѕification appear. • By the time of birth the meѕenchymal cellѕ uѕually diѕappear. • The proceѕѕ of oѕѕification beginѕ during the prenatal period and it takeѕ place in the dіaрhуses of the long boneѕ and ѕome epiphyѕeѕ (top and lower capitulum of the hip bone, top capitulum of the tibia, cubiformi bone). The ѕkeleton iѕ completely developed when 806 nucleuѕeѕ of oѕѕification appear. Idiopatic osteopsatirosis • As a reѕult of anomalieѕ of the ѕkeleton embryogeneѕiѕ varіous dіseases can develop. In particular, aѕ the reѕult of reduced oѕteoblaѕtic activity in the bony tіssue (as it iѕ conѕidered, at the expense of the inhibition of the calcification рrocesses bу the collagen of the bony tіsѕue) a heredіtarу diѕeaѕe of the ѕkeleton with the dominant type of inheritance can develop - the imperfect oѕteogeneѕiѕ, that manifeѕtѕ in frequent and plural fractures.There are 2 forms- imperfect oѕteogeneѕiѕ & idiopatic osteopsatirosis.

    INTOED GAIT (PIGEON TOE) F O O T S M A R T F O C U S P A T I E N T I N F O R M A T I O N S H E E T What is Intoed Gait? Often parents will bring their children into the clinic concerned that their child is intoed or ‘pigeon toed’. Intoeing is commonly seen in young children and in majority of cases will resolve without requiring any treatment. (Think about how many intoed children you see compared to adults who intoe). Intoed gait is referred to when feet are turned inwards instead of slightly outwards. There is no evidence that intoe gait causes problems in the future. Intoe itself does not cause the child to develop pain. Most children manage their intoe very well. In some more obvious cases though it can cause the child to be clumsy and trip over their feet.
