That is, we don’t truly dig deeply into our thoughts, feelings, desires and dreams. Part of the problem is that we’re always on the go. When to-do lists keep swelling, self-exploration takes a backseat. How can it not, when we barely find time for self-care? Specifically, self-exploration involves “taking a look at your own thoughts, feelings, behaviors and motivations and asking why. It’s looking for the roots of who we are — answers to all the questions we have about [ourselves],” according to Ryan Howes, Ph.D, psychologist, writer and professor in Pasadena, California. Having a deeper understanding of ourselves has many benefits. It “helps people understand and accept who they are and why they d...

Attention!This is one of my favorite graphic novels at the moment. Noir enough for my taste but with an edge of hope - or at least anticipation.I don't generally feature graphic novels and comics here - I don't know why not, but I don't. But today I'll make an exception that becomes a new rule. Because frankly, good art outlasts bad politics, and generally it doesn't make me want to punch my monitor.

According to Hamilton, who had worked for the designer since 2002, “they fired me because they said I was overweight and I couldn’t fit in their clothes anymore.” After initially picking my jaw up off the floor, I wondered, “Should we really be flabbergasted?” Unfortunately, most of us are well aware of the fashion industry’s skewed standards. Just recently fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld had this to say after finding out that the German magazine, Brigitte was going to use “real women” instead of models: No one wants to see curvy women. You’ve got fat mothers with their bags of chips sitting in front of the television and saying thin models...

The Rughs’ artwork is bright, bold and graphic — and it supports advocacy for and education about people on the spectrum. Leave a comment, and one reader will win a piece of silkscreened artwork by this talented couple. Today’s poster has a quote that the Rughs came across in “The Truth About Autism,” an article from the February issue of Wired Magazine. *   *   * It’s impossible to predict with any certainty how anyone diagnosed with autism is going to turn out.

After all, autism isn’t a one-size-fits-all condition. Just in time to save us from advocacy-image-burnout, Jaime and Jeffrey Rugh, a  N.J. couple who are artists and the parents of two children on the spectrum, have started designing and producing posters that are sharp and unusual. Image courtesy of Jaime and Jeffrey Rugh Reminiscent of the works of Alexander Girard and Corita Kent, the Rughs’ posters brim with color and message. The Rughs are producing the posters to promote awareness, support and compassion for people with autism, as well as families and communities who live with those on the spectrum. Prices are $15 to $25 per piece, and a portion of the proceeds will be given to an organiza...

Did Your Child Reach Her or His Gross Motor Milestones? Some parents note that their children had gross motor delays (Charlie did), while others said their child did not. Indeed, some parents whose children met all their gross and fine motor milestones then had other delays in social and communicative skills. About This “Autism Dilemma” According to health journalist Alison Rose Levy, there is an “autism dilemma” afoot, in which parents of autistic children speak emotionally and from the heart about what they think (a vaccine, for instance) “caused” their child to become autistic, while “aloof ...

The victims of the disease were seen as pariahs and misunderstanding about HIV/AIDS was the norm. We did not know how the disease was spread, and as such, the victims were seen as potential sources of infection by society.
