    Respond to two colleagues:

    • Compare the studies you and your colleague identified and the experiences you presented from your mindful practice exercise. Analyze one strength and one limitation of using mindfulness interventions for the client. Consider how culturally relevant it is, how aligned it is with social work ethics, etc.

    1-AM- 

    • Describe your experience practicing this technique and how this experience influences your choice on whether to use it with a client during practice.
      Being a Military Wife, Mom of 4, full time employee, student & being at the end of my first internship, I have found that practicing Mindful Meditation is a must. I have added this to my self-care routine. Even on my busiest days, I find 5 minutes minimum and just sit, close my eyes and breathe. Sometimes this is in the car sitting in the driveway at the end of the day (this helps after a stressful day to leave the work stress outside of the home) and sometimes it is sitting at my desk on my lunch break just to refocus and prepare for the rest of my day. Sometimes I have to do this multiple times a day especially when my anxiety is high. This serves as a chance for me to ground myself. When my anxiety is really high, and I can feel an anxiety attack coming on I use a method my therapist called 5-4-3-2-1 Grounding. I focus on 5 things I can see, 4 things I can hear, 3 things I can feel, 2 things I can smell and 1 thing I can taste. This helps recenter my thoughts and body to ground me in the here and now.

    I would completely recommend this Mindfulness Meditation to a client as a way to recenter themselves after an emotional or stressful situation or day. This gives people a chance to get their feelings, breathing and body under control and to mentally shake off the day or situation.

    I feel some clients may find this method frustrating at first as when you first try, it can be hard to clear your mind and just be. When I first tired, I grew frustrated because I felt my mind was going a million miles an hour and wouldn’t shut off. As with every exercise, the more you do it, the easier it becomes.  I would recommend that clients that find it hard at first continue to try to see if it becomes easier.

    This link is a wonderful study I found in regards to the case study I have been using.

    Fernández-Portero, C., Alarcón, D., Gallardo-Flores, A., Amián, J. G., & Sánchez-Medina, J. A. (2021). Effectiveness of a Mindfulness-Based Intervention Program for women family caregivers of older adults. Healthcare, 9(9), 1216. https://doi.org/10.3390/healthcare9091216

    • In 1–2 sentences, briefly summarize the methodological context (i.e., research method, how data was collected, and the instruments used) of the studies and the findings.

    In the study, 111 women aged 33-75 who were care givers of older adults were analyzed. Half were given mindful meditation practices, and the others were given physical exercise as a coping mechanism for stress. The women given the coping mechanism of mindful meditation, showed a significant decrease in health problems over the ones given physical exercise.

    • Analyze the findings in terms of their validity and applicability for the client.

    The client in my case study could benefit from mindful meditation because she is overwhelmed. Taking 5 minutes a day to just relax her brain could help calm her and help her feel better.

     The Effectiveness of Mindfulness Interventions

    Undoubtedly, the mindfulness meditation practiced through the UCLA Health guided recordings was a positive experience for me overall. I liked the practices of body scan and breath awareness as they were quite soothing and made me feel more grounded (UCLA Health, 2024). On the other hand, I observed that I was not fully present at certain moments, which might be irritating for some clients who are new to mindfulness exercises.

    In relating my reaction to how a client might react, I believe that there is a chance that, for some, the process of clearing the mind and maintaining focus may be frustrating. For instance, clients with anxiety could experience significant difficulty at first. Nonetheless, with proper training and assistance regarding how to regain focus, many clients would probably acquire advantages such as reduced stress levels and heightened self-consciousness at some point.

    Below is the research focused on mindfulness interventions that I chose:

    Garland, E. L., Hanley, A. W., Goldin, P. R., & Gross, J. J. (2017). Testing the mindfulness-to-meaning theory: Evidence for mindful positive emotion regulation from a reanalysis of longitudinal data. PLOS ONE, 12(12), e0187727. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0187727Links to an external site.

    This paper performed a secondary analysis of the data collected from a randomized controlled trial comparing MBSR with CBT for social anxiety disorder (N = 107). Garland et al. (2017) employed multivariate path analysis to capture the core constructs of the Mindfulness-to-Meaning Theory for 12 months. 

    The study’s findings provided evidence for the hypothesized model by demonstrating that enhancement in attentional control was linked with subsequent enhancement in decentering, expanded consciousness, reappraisal competence and positive affect. Compared to CBT, MBSR led to significantly higher improvements in decentering and expansion of awareness (Garland et al., 2017). As for validity and generalizability, this was a longitudinal case-control study with a clinical sample, which indicates reasonable internal and external validity.

    Contextually, the information on the psychological processes that underlie mindfulness could help in the development of interventions. In the case of the homeless single mother client, knowing how mindfulness may help improve coping processes and positive affect could be useful. Regardless, the study cannot be said to generalize her specific situation due to the fact that it focused on social anxiety only. In a nutshell, this study affords tentative support for mindfulness as an avenue to developing resilience and emotional capital in clients experiencing chronic stress.

  • Post 1: You learned the definition of the American Dream in this week’s lecture.

    Post 1: You learned the definition of the American Dream in this week’s lecture. You also learned about the American identity. Traits often associated with the American identity include boldness, confidence, perseverance, and integrity. These traits are often demonstrated through a character’s words or actions. This week, we’ll focus on boldness. How is boldness reflected in the characters of Rebecca Harding Davis’s story? Choose two characters from “Life in the Iron Mills” and explain how boldness applies to them in the story.

    Criteria: 300 words minimum (excluding quotations and citations)

    • Include two properly integrated and cited direct quotations (one related to each character) to support your claims. See the Literary Analysis Tools Module from this week’s activities for information about integrating and citing direct quotations.
    • Post 2–Creative writing in response to literature is a way for students to respond to literature in a personal way. Creative writing provides a way for students to practice critical thinking and develop a stronger understanding of literary criticism while showing creativity and a bit of their own personalities. For this creative writing assignment, you will do a character analysis to allow you to get inside the mind of one of the characters.”Rip Van Winkle” and “Young Goodman Brown” are told as third-person narratives, not as first-person narratives. The difference is that a third-person narrative presents the characters to us in the words of a narrator rather than from the words of the characters themselves. The story contains descriptions such as “Rip Van Winkle did this” or “Young Goodman Brown said that,” but it’s not as if the characters themselves are telling everything from their perspective. Of course, sometimes they speak in the story, but they do not get to tell the story or what they thinking or feeling. It is up to the reader to determine what the characters might be thinking or feeling. For this assignment, choose one of the following options:(A) Imagine you are Rip Van Winkle’s daughter, Judith, writing a journal entry after her father reappears after 20 years. Try to get into the mind of Judith. Be imaginative and creative. Pretend you are Judith and have just seen your father after he has been missing for 20 years. You will not be retelling the plot of the story; you will be Judith reflecting on the events of the day. In this journal entry you can put down whatever thoughts she might have using absolute frankness and honesty.  OR(B) Imagine you are Young Goodman Brown writing a journal entry the day after the events described in the story. Try to get into the mind of Goodman Brown. Be imaginative and creative. Pretend you are Goodman Brown and have just experienced the events described in the story. You will not be retelling the plot of the story; you will be Goodman Brown interpreting and reflecting on the events of the day. In this journal entry you can put down whatever thoughts Goodman Brown might have using absolute frankness and honesty.  Criteria:
      • Write a minimum 400 words in paragraph form, using Times New Roman 12-point font (or similar) with double spacing. A title page is not required.
      • Submit as a Microsoft Word attachment on the submission page (click title above). Assignments not submitted in this way may be returned to you ungraded.
      • POST 3- Complete the Week 2 Literary Analysis Tools Module before completing this assignment. Part of your grade is based on selection, integration, and citation of paraphrased quotations.Read all of the information below before posting your response. This is a post-first forum, and you must post your response before gaining access to your classmates’ posts.

    Determining whether a challenge represents an opportunity for evidence-based improvement depends on the available research evidence and its applicability to EPB. Address the following questions, using your findings from an initial review of the literature to evaluate each of the three challenges you identified as possible opportunities for evidence-based improvement:

    • Is there sufficient and high-quality evidence available in the literature to substantiate the challenge?
      • Based on your initial search and review of the literature, how large is the body of evidence that supports the challenge?
      • How would you describe the range of available sources of evidence to substantiate the challenge?
      • What level and quality of evidence did you find?
    • Is the identified challenge specific to the P in the PICOT question?
      • Is the challenge one that the organization is facing?
        • Is it population- or setting-specific? Why?
        • How do you know?
      • What evidence did you find that shows that the challenge occurs in organizations with characteristics similar to your prospective practicum site?
      • Is the challenge currently occurring in specific organizations?
    • What current metrics and benchmarks related to the challenge are tracked and measured by organizations with characteristics similar to your prospective practicum site?
      • What are possible outcomes for an organization and its population?
      • How would you go about defining measurable objectives for an organization to achieve the benchmarks?
      • What are possible outcomes for an organization and its population that directly relate to the challenge?
      • How long does it take for the outcomes to be achieved by an organization?
    • Based on what you found in the literature, what’s a possible PICOT question for one of the organizational challenges?
      • Which element in the PICOT question is the most difficult to define? Why?

  • Negotiating budgets and communicating financial needs to stakeholders are vital

    Negotiating budgets and communicating financial needs to stakeholders are vital skills for nurse leaders. Given today’s numerous constraints on funding and a highly competitive environment, the ability to win support for your budget proposals hinges on being able to present a compelling argument based on well-documented needs, accurate financial information, and a justifiable business case.

    This assessment provides an opportunity for you to examine the mission and goals of a health care organization, in order to justify a budget proposal. A persuasive argument requires thoughtful justification and rationale for the expenses required to support your proposal. A proposal that supports the organization’s mission and goals strengthens your argument and is much more likely to get you what you need.

    In every health care organization, dollars are scarce and the budget process is carefully scrutinized at every level. Nurse leaders must be business-savvy. They must be able to make a compelling case for why every budget line item and every dollar on a budget supports the mission and goals of the unit and the organization. This means that nurse leaders must be able to think in terms of the business of health care and be able to present a business proposal or plan with thorough and thoughtful justification and rationale for expenses. The business plan should present accurate, factual data and costs, and should also be concise and clearly organized.

    he financial department has reviewed your unit’s operating budget and has asked you to submit an executive summary that provides support for your budget proposal. Your challenge is to position your unit favorably within an environment of competing demands for limited funding.

    As you prepare to complete this assessment, you may want to think about other related issues to deepen your understanding or broaden your viewpoint. You are encouraged to consider the questions below and discuss them with a fellow learner, a work associate, an interested friend, or a member of your professional community. Note that these questions are for your own development and exploration and do not need to be completed or submitted as part of your assessment.

    Consider the operating budget you developed in Assessment 2.

    • How would you justify your budget to executive leaders?
    • How would you link your budget to the organization’s goals and objectives?
    • How would you propose to meet productivity goals while staying within budget?

    Write an executive summary of the operating budget you prepared in Assessment 2 that makes a compelling case for why funds should be allocated for your budget.

    • Outline a strategic plan that ensures profitability and fiscal success.
    • Present a plan to meet staff productivity goals, while staying within budget parameters.
    • Justify equipment and service costs.
    • Analyze department, unit, or project alignment with the organization’s mission and goals.
    • Write clearly and concisely, using correct grammar and mechanics.

  • Hi there, This is a sociology class on Crime and Society, specifically SOCI 2450

    Hi there,

    This is a sociology class on Crime and Society, specifically SOCI 2450A. you will need to answer the discussion post below. The discussion post should be 2 full paragraphs in length (3-5 sentences per paragraph),
    reflect an adequate understanding and engagement with the reading material, and be respectful in
    both tone and content. I have attached the reading and lecture in order to answer this discussion thoroughly without using any outside sources. you can only use the readings and lecture i have attached.

    In the readings for Class #3, Ramprashad et al. (2022) provide the definition of harm reduction as follows: “policies, programs, and practices that aim to minimize the negative health, social, and legal impacts associated with drug use, drug policies, and drug laws” (p. 529). They further write: “In North America, harm reduction has historically been viewed with significant controversy, with opponents stating that these strategies enable drug use despite overwhelmingly evidence to the contrary” (p. 529). Yet Johnston et al. (2024) provide a case study of a Prison Needle Exchange Program in Canada that, from the perspectives of correctional officers, complicates the established efficacy of a harm reduction program (largely through concerns for safety and rehabilitation). Engaging these readings, do you think harm reduction can be effective at managing substance use in prisons? Why or why not? Second, how might harm reduction programs in prisons require different policy approaches when compared to programs in community settings? Be sure to carefully explain your reasoning.
