The brain is the most complex organ in our body. Indeed, it is perhaps the most complex structure we have ever encountered in nature. Both structurally and functionally, there are many peculiarities that differentiate the brain from all other organs. The brain is our connection to the world around us and by governing nervous system and higher function, any disturbance induces severe neurological and psychiatric disorders that can have a devastating effect on quality of life. Our understanding of the physiology and biochemistry of the brain has improved dramatically in the last two decades. In particular, the critical role of cations, including magnesium, has become evident, even if incompletely understood at a mechanistic level. The exact role and regulation of magnesium, in particular, remains elusive, largely because intracellular levels are so difficult to routinely quantify. Nonetheless, the importance of magnesium to normal central nervous system activity is self-evident given the complicated homeostatic mechanisms that maintain the concentration of this cation within strict limits essential for normal physiology and metabolism. There is also considerable accumulating evidence to suggest alterations to some brain functions in both normal and pathological conditions may be linked to alterations in local magnesium concentration. This book, containing chapters written by some of the foremost experts in the field of magnesium research, brings together the latest in experimental and clinical magnesium research as it relates to the central nervous system. It offers a complete and updated view of magnesiums involvement in central nervous system function and in so doing, brings together two main pillars of contemporary neuroscience research, namely providing an explanation for the molecular mechanisms involved in brain function, and emphasizing the connections between the molecular changes and behavior. It is the untiring efforts of those magnesium researchers who have dedicated their lives to unraveling the mysteries of magnesiums role in biological systems that has inspired the collation of this volume of work.

This book gives insight as to how to deal with the many different challenges that parents face as their child moves into the adolescent phase of development. Such challenges include teenage defiance, family discord and family disconnection, teenage anger, cyberbullying, drugs and alcohol, and mental instability. The author employs the concept of influence rather than control, purposeful direction rather than rigidity, and expansion rather than contraction. The book discards the concept of self-worth as a means to encourage. Rather, a different dialogue is used to encourage, guide and motivate. Ultimately by changing the dialogue it promotes individuality and autonomy and, harmony and connection. The aim here is to harness a young person’s innate gifts and to promote personal qualities. As parents reflect in the change in dialogue, what unfolds is a movement towards being real, being authentic, and being true to themselves. The presence of this awareness raises their level of consciousness, and what arises is a way of being that aligns more with the universal principles of love, peace, compassion, and harmony.
