It also explored parental gender and time since death. Fifty-four couples were recruited through newsletters, support groups, and forums. Participants were directed to Qualtrics to fill out the following instruments: demographic questionnaire, the Attitudes towards Emotional Expression Scale to measure communication, the Revised Grief Experience Inventory to measure grief reaction, the Guilt subscale of the Grief Experience Questionnaire to measure guilt, and the Marital Satisfaction Inventory-Revised to measure relationship satisfaction. Bowen family systems theory (BFST) was used as the guiding theoretical lens. There were three parametric measures used in this study: independent two-sample t-test, the Actor Partner Interdependence Model (APIM), and hierarchical regression. For the independent t-test, all the variables showed sufficient evidence at the 5% significance level of a significant difference in the average total scores. For communication males scored significantly higher than females and for grief reaction, guilt, and relationship satisfaction females scored significantly higher than males. The APIM found a statistically significant actor effect for a woman’s communication on her own grief reaction. For the hierarchical regression, the regression results indicated that this overall model did significantly predict female grief reaction. Time since death proved a iii significant predictor of female grief reaction. A discussion of the findings, limitations of the study, research and clinical implications, and direction for future research are addressed. iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am indebted to many people for their guidance and support that has led to the completion of this dissertation. First and foremost, I would like to express my sincere appreciation to the bereaved parents who participated in this study by sharing their time and experiences. I wish to recognize the assistance given from many support group facilitators, both in person and online, along with several newsletters who continued to get the word out about this study and persisted to being committed to bringing it to the attention of their members, so they could decide if they wanted to participate. In particular, Compassionate Friend and The Mothers Enduring Neonatal Death (M.E.N.D) were invaluable. I am awestricken at the resilience of these parents and appreciate them for taking the emotional energy needed to provide information that will be helpful to other grieving parents. I want to extend a special thank you to all of the people who encouraged and supported me throughout this process. This dissertation would not have been possible without it. First, I would like to thank my family and friends who have been there through this long process. Secondly, I would like to thank my advisor and committee chair, Dr. Karin Jordan, and my former advisor the late Dr. Patricia Parr. I feel privileged to have worked with both of you. Finally, I would like to thank the following committee members for their guidance and input: Dr. Karin Jordan, Dr. Heather Katafiasz, Dr. Rikki Patton, Dr. Cynthia Reynolds, Dr. Harvey Sterns, Dr David Tefteller, and Dr. Wondimu Ahmed. In particular I want to thank Dr. Ahmed and Dr. Patton for their statistical expertise, Dr. Tefteller for stepping in to replace a committee v member when dysfunctional departmental politics came into play, also providing calmness and focus, Dr. Reynolds for her patience, Dr. Sterns for his content expertise, and Dr. Katafiasz for her theoretical expertise. vi DEDICATION This dissertation is dedicated to my family and friends, especially my husband and best friend, Christopher. Christopher, you are one of the main reasons why I persisted throughout this process despite all of the obstacles. Your unconditional love and support have shaped my entire life. You challenge me to be a better person. I would not be me without you. I would like to acknowledge my mother Gloria, for being a role model and showing me what resilience looks like. I would like to recognize my mother- in-law, Carol, for her love, support, and assistance along with my step father-in-law, Bernie. I would like to thank my friends who provided their own dissertation support group composed of Dr. Joanne Holbert, Dr. Dee Dee Hewit-Hewit, and Samantha Posey. Thank you for keeping me sane, motivated, and grounded. Finally, I would like to thank Dr. Karin Jordan and the late Dr. Patricia Parr. Your mentorship, encouragement, guidance, and professionalism made all the difference. What I learned throughout tHis process impacted much more than this dissertation. vii TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF TABLES……………………………………………………………………...xvii LIST OF FIGURES………………………………………………………………….......xx CHAPTER I.

  • Experiences of Mindfulness Training in Patients With
    Lundgren et al. BMC Psychology (2018) 6:46 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40359-018-0252-1 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access A journey through chaos and calmness: experiences of mindfulness training in patients with depressive symptoms after a recent coronary event - a qualitative diary content analysis Oskar Lundgren1,2* , Peter Garvin2,3, Margareta Kristenson2, Lena Jonasson4 and Ingela Thylén5 Abstract Background: Psychological distress with symptoms of depression and anxiety is common and unrecognized in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Efforts have been made to treat psychological distress in CAD with both conventional methods, such as antidepressant drugs and psychotherapy, and non-conventional methods, such as stress management courses. However, studies focusing on the experiences of mindfulness training in this population are still scarce. Therefore, the aim of this study was to explore immediate experiences of mindfulness practice among CAD patients with depressive symptoms. Methods: A qualitative content analysis of diary entries, written immediately after practice sessions and continuously during an 8-week long Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction course (MBSR), was applied. Results: Twelve respondents participated in the study. The main category: a journey through chaos and calmness captured the participants’ concurrent experiences of challenges and rewards over time. This journey appears to reflect a progressive development culminating in the harvesting of the fruits of practice at the end of the mindfulness training. Descriptions of various challenging facets of mindfulness practice – both physical and psychological - commonly occurred during the whole course, although distressing experiences were more predominant during the first half. Furthermore, the diary entries showed a wide variety of ways of dealing with these struggles, including both constructive and less constructive strategies of facing difficult experiences.

  • INTENTIONAL THINKING How We Create What We Want in Our Lives
    INTENTIONAL THINKING How we create what we want in our lives HOSTED BY: Lorna Weston-Smyth Executive Coach and Trainer Forgiveness The gift we give to ourselves 1 Forgiveness is letting go of the need for revenge and releasing negative thoughts of bitterness and resentment. For some people, the beginning stage or a beginning stage of forgiveness is anger. 2 Only through letting it go can we truly forgive. 3 Brené Brown “Numbing or taking the edge off doesn’t have the same consequences as addiction, but they are nonetheless severe and life-altering for one reason: We cannot selectively numb emotion. If we numb the dark, we numb the light. If we take the edge off pain and discomfort, we are, by default, taking the edge off joy, love, belonging, and the other emotions that give meaning to our lives.” 4 Misdirection Strategies Chandeliering Bouncing Numbing Stockpiling Saccharine Cloak Fear of High-Centering 5 Mary Morrissey “Tender dreams cannot thrive in toxic soil.” 6 Three Pillars of Forgiveness Learn to separate the being from the behavior Recognize that you don’t know the whole story Ask for help in removing the poison of resentment 7 James Allen “Keep your hand firmly upon the helm of thought. Self-control is strength; Right Thought is mastery; Calmness is power.” 8 Steps to Forgiveness Acknowledge your own inner pain. Express those emotions in non-hurtful ways without yelling or attacking. Protect yourself from further victimization. Try to understand the point of view and motivations of the person to be forgiven; replace anger with compassion.

Roadmap for Resilience: The California Surgeon General’s Report on Adverse Childhood Experiences, Toxic Stress, and Health. Office of the California Surgeon General, 2020. DOI: 10.48019/PEAM8812. OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR December 2, 2020 In one of my first acts as Governor, I established the role of California Surgeon General. Among all the myriad challenges facing our administration on the first day, addressing persistent challenges to the health and welfare of the people of our state—especially that of the youngest Californians—was an essential priority. We led with the overwhelming scientific consensus that upstream factors, including toxic stress and the social determinants of health, are the root causes of many of the most harmful and persistent health challenges, from heart disease to homelessness. An issue so critical to the health of 40 million Californians deserved nothing less than a world-renowned expert and advocate. Appointed in 2019 to be the first- ever California Surgeon General, Dr. Nadine Burke Harris brought groundbreaking research and expertise in childhood trauma and adversity to the State’s efforts. In this new role, Dr. Burke Harris set three key priorities – early childhood, health equity and Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and toxic stress – and is working across my administration to give voice to the science and evidence-based practices that are foundational to the success of our work as a state.

  • Theorizing Gender Dysphoria and Traumatic Remembrance Within Sot¯ O¯ Zen Meditation
    religions Article Zen in Distress: Theorizing Gender Dysphoria and Traumatic Remembrance within Sot¯ o¯ Zen Meditation Ray Buckner Department of Religious Studies, Northwestern University, Crowe Hall, 1860 Campus Drive, Evanston, IL 60208, USA; [email protected] Received: 14 September 2020; Accepted: 30 October 2020; Published: 4 November 2020 Abstract: Gender dysphoria is considered a pronounced experience of distress in the bodies and minds of some transgender people. Examining the text Zen Mind, Beginners Mind by Shunryu¯ Suzuki, I analyze some of the difficulties that may arise for transgender practitioners experiencing acutely strong gender dysphoria within the Sot¯ o¯ Zen meditation experience. I seek to understand how physical and psychological gender distress may make concentration, and thereby realization, challenging and potentially harmful within a context of Sot¯ o¯ Zen meditation. I consider how meditation can exacerbate the panic and traumatic remembrance of the body and mind, leading both to embodied struggles, as well as undoubtedly philosophical ones too. This paper theorizes gender dysphoria to exist beyond a state of unitary “distress” to include trauma. I put forward an understanding of gender dysphoria that is grounded in traumatic, gendered remembrances—what I call “sustained traumas.” Within the meditation experience, I argue trans, gender dysphoric people may experience heightened disconnect, separation, and deepening into their solid and suffering “self” rather than open to the fundamental nature of emptiness, non-duality, and an empty and move-able core. Ultimately, I argue meditation may lead to a deepening of traumatic remembrance, posing potential corporeal and philosophical problematics for gender dysphoric practitioners within Sot¯ o¯ Zen meditation.
