These therapeutic groups are not unstructured sharing spaces, but guided experiences designed to support emotional regulation, trauma resolution, and nervous system healing. Support groups offer a space for people to share experiences, reduce isolation, and feel understood by others who have faced similar challenges. Her expertise includes motivational interviewing and client-centered therapy, reflecting her commitment to empowering clients in their recovery journey. Into Action Recovery offers comprehensive treatments for those seeking recovery from addiction and co-occurring disorders. Relapse can be a challenging aspect of recovery. It helps families seek the right support and begin the process of healing together.

Given my views on play, you won’t be surprised to learn that I asked the presenters about whether play experiences could qualify as the kinds of responsive, positive, engaged, and empowering interactions they described. I was attending professional development aimed at helping library staff support families from refugee backgrounds, and we were discussing the role that libraries and childcare staff (mostly the latter, based on the mix of the group) can play in helping often highly traumatised communities. A small increase in risk of harm, replicated many times on a massive scale, means harm is certainly occurring. As COVID-19 lockdowns unfolded around the world, and sales of games, puzzles, toys, and other playful artforms spiked, a friend asked me if I felt a sense of validation. And worst of all, a combination of the two, where other players essentially become supporting cast for a scripted victory that is neither earned, nor fun, nor remotely playful – a psychodrama rather than a game, toying with their victims rather than playing with them. Controlling bullies who insist everyone play their way, forcing people to make deals they don’t want and to keep playing even when they aren’t having fun.
However, we found that the reporter transgene with the lin-42 3′UTR was significantly repressed in wild-type worms, but derepressed in the mir-71(lf) worms (Fig. 4 H and I). In starved L1 worms, we detected only a slight increase in the mRNA level of hbl-1 in mir-71 mutants compared with that in wild type (∼10%), which may not be biologically significant. These results indicate that miR-71 plays a significant role in larval development of animals recovering from L1 diapause and likely does so by regulating the expression of components of the insulin receptor/DAF-16 pathway, as well as factors acting downstream, or in parallel to, DAF-16. If this were true, the starved mir-71(lf); daf-16(lf) double-mutant worms should show a slow growth phenotype similar to that of daf-16(lf) worms, but no specific VPC timing defect.

It’s also notorious among tabletop enthusiasts for making some people loathe the entire medium of board games… I’ve got several posts to write on this topic, but I want to start by honouring Gene’s remarks with a ringing endorsement of his point about supporting those with trauma responses to play, and building on what that means more broadly. I’d like to thank whoever chose the GLAM Blog Club theme for this month, and highlight some of my past posts as potential inspiration for anyone thinking of writing about play and games in a libraries/GLAM context – specifically my Talking Points series, especially the second one, on the powers of play. We detected that you have an open account recovery request. Penalties are applied no matter who was playing at the time.
Emotional distress is also very common among family members. In this article, we explore how families can support the path to sobriety, the various dynamics, and the resources available for both the individual and their loved ones. Recovery from addiction is a journey that would be helped by involving the entire family unit. Make a one-time donation or a recurring donation to Café RE here. By Johanna C, 3 months sober (at the time of writing), most recent sober date August 18th, 2023. Through this exercise, I was able to reflect on the tape that illustrates my life as an anxiety-ridden, unpredictable and obsessive drinker.

The overall effect of miRNAs on L1 starvation survival is expected to be significantly stronger than that reflected by the data in Fig. These results suggest that miRNAs act in the intestine, and possibly in other tissues, to promote L1 starvation survival. However, the mechanisms that revery play coordinate the long-term survival, overall developmental arrest, and reinitiation remain to be investigated.
- We identified a conserved “pause and play” mechanism of cell cycle during environmental stress and recovery.
- If you find that a child family member is using an adult account, please contact us.
- If there is no lawful reason for the chargeback (e.g. no legal right to a refund), your account will remain suspended until the debt is repaid.
- This is consistent with hbl-1 being one of the downstream targets of miR-71, although this modest effect alone is not expected to account for the vulval developmental phenotype in mir-71 mutant.
- Consistent with the observation described above, the 4-d–starved mir-71(lf) mutants recovering on the RNAi control plates displayed the highly penetrant retarded defect in VPC division.
- The LAB tone curve is mostly me experimenting to see how it affects color saturation, particularly in the Blue and Magenta spectrum, which I often adjust.
