Please Practice EQ With Your Child

Just as important to reading to our children or teaching them their 1, 2, 3's and A, B, C's, is instilling them with strong emotional intelligence skills

You've Lost That Loving Feeling...

Maintain a healthy relationship with your partner by learning how to beat Intimacy Anorexia even before its onset

I was in high school when I first saw the movie Top Gun. The highlight of that film, of course, was the belting out of the song "You've lost that loving feeling..."

Asthma, Colds and Children

Find out how to be extra vigilant when it comes to your family's respiratory health, especially during the season of increased travel and play

Regardless of the time of the year, parents must be proactive in keeping their loved ones healthy. Children with asthma are particularly at risk for developing health complications from the common cold. Upper respiratory infections are commonly caused by viruses such as rhinovirus. These viral upper respiratory infections can trigger spasm of the bronchial tree, which is responsible for making sure air is spread over as much space as possible in the lungs. A spasm of the bronchial tree can cause bronchoconstriction and an asthma attack.
