Abstract:
T. Krishnamacharya’s teachings on yoga have spread throughout the world through four of his students: BKS IYENGAR, PATTABHI JOY, TKV, DESIKACHAR, T. SHRIBASHYAM, and the latest two being his sons. I had the privilege to meet TKV Desikachar in 1965 in Gstaad, Switzerland when he was the guest of Jiddu Krishnamurti to whom he was then giving âsana-s and prânâyâma s courses. When I started taking classes with him in 1966, in Chennai, I was surprised and fullfilled when I understood it was 121 courses. Furthermore, during the rather lengthy span of years I returned to study with him, from 1966 to

Abstract:
Illness is defined as a state in which a person’s physical, emotional, intellectual social or spiritual functioning is diminished or impaired compared with previous health. The illness can be classified as acute illness, chronic illness, terminal illness. According to the cause, it is classified as primary illness, secondary illness and idiopathic illness. When a person is sick, he/she exhibits certain behaviors to adapt to the changes caused by the diseases. It is called illness behavior. Age, gender, family values and socio economic status, all have an influence on illness behavior. Il

In Canada, the number of adults over the age of 50 incarcerated in federal penitentiaries has doubled over the past ten years, now comprising nearly 25 percent of the federal prison population (Martin, 2017). As this population continues to grow, so too will the demands placed on prison health services. To address this issue, researchers, policymakers, and practitioners suggest creating more accessible bedspace within existing institutions, cordoning off age-segregated prison units, building specialized geriatric prisons, and/or increasing the use of compassionate release.

Abstract:
Chronic health problems are hypothesised to be a risk factor to child and adolescent mental health, due the consistent and continuing stress these health problems pose to normative patterns of development. However, this theory remains to be substantiated by empirical research. Moreover, a systematic review conducted as part of this research indicated that the empirical body is not one on which the validity of this theory can be adequately tested. The major question posed is whether the lack of high quality epidemiological data in the field is obscuring a true psychiatric risk associated with c

It is therefore vital that support for mental health be multi-faceted and every bit as prevalent as the conditions it seeks to address.
