Hi readers, I’m Roxanne Rhodes and I’m a psychotherapist, clinical hypnotherapist and coach with a private practice in Clowne.

If you have the good fortune to be living with a teenager at the moment you might be more aware than most of the pressures they may currently be experiencing. It’s building up to exam season and for a lot of teens this is an anxious time. I recently visited Heritage school to discuss how I could help their Y11 students to more effectively handle their exam stress.

The MOST IMPORTANT thing that you can do for a student facing exam anxiety is to teach them how to calm down. This sounds really simple but is absolutely vital – and actually very few people have relaxation techniques to draw on quickly when needed. In really simple terms, when we are emotionally aroused for whatever reason (if we are stressed, upset, anxious, scared etc.) scientific research shows that our neo-cortex (the left hemisphere of our brain) actually partially switches off, meaning that we literally cannot think. The best thing that we can do is lower our emotional arousal level, which will allow our ‘thinking’ brain to be switched back on. It’s that simple!

07710 979 535 Please tell your Local Business where you saw their Advert

One of the easiest ways to do this is using a technique called 7-11 breathing.

The basic premise of this is that we make our breath out last longer than our breath in. Try it now! Take a deep breath in, counting to 7 as you do this.

Don’t hold your breath but breathe out as a continuous flow while counting to 11. This forces the body into a relaxation response. If you find this hard to begin with, that’s perfectly normal.

Try counting 5-9 or even 3-5 – just make sure that you’re keeping the out breath longer. You can find plenty more information on this and tips for coping with exam stress on my website.

I’m also currently seeing some students who have exam anxiety in one-to-one sessions at my Clowne office, and am available on the contact details below if you’d like any more information about how you can help your stressed out teen.

See you next month.

Stay Together Forever - MicroChipSmart & Get CHIPPED by 6th April…

NEW DOG MICROCHIPPING LAWS The new law is aiming to protect animals who may become lost or stolen and return them safely to their home.

From 6th April 2016 it will be a legal requirement for ALL dogs to be Microchipped under Government plans announced three years ago.

From April 2016, every dog in England and Scotland will have to be microchipped in a plan by the Government to help reunite people with lost or stolen pets and track down the owners of vicious or illegal dogs.

Microchipping for dogs in Wales became law in March 2015, while Northern Ireland led the way by being the first devolved administration in the UK to introduce compulsory microchipping in April 2012.

The Environment Secretary Owen Paterson also announced in 2013 that people attacked by dogs on private property will be able to press charges.

What does this mean for you if you're a dog owner?

Under the Microchipping of Dogs (England) Regulations 2015 – new laws that were made in February 2015 – it will be compulsory for all dogs over the age

of eight weeks to be fitted with microchips from 6 April 2016.

It is estimated that almost two million dogs are still to undergo the Procedure. Dogs will need to be microchipped and registered with their keepers’ mainly on private property such as gardens, contact details. All keepers, including breeders, must drives and private roads.

Up until now they have not been keep these details up to date.

The only exemption covered by the law if they are bitten on from the requirement is private property.

The Government said householders where a vet has certified in writing that a dog is unfit to will be protected from prosecution if their dog attacks a burglar or trespasser on their be microchipped.

Once the new rules size of a grain of rice, will be officially come into effect, if a dog registered with an approved without a microchip comes microchip database, which will to the attention of the hold up-to-date information authorities, its keeper may about the dog and its owner's be served with a notice contact details. requiring the dog to be Lost and stray dogs cost microchipped, and may the taxpayer and welfare charities face criminal prosecution and a £33 million per year.

Becky’s Movie Previews Hopefully the cold weather has begun to subside and we can finally venture outside without being wrapped up to our eyeballs.

If a cinema trip is on the cards this month, here is what’s showing.

Coming Soon…

The Jungle Book

Khan (Idris Elba, Luther) threatens his life, since man isn’t allowed in the jungle, Mowgli leaves his home.

Guided by Bagheera and Baloo the bear (Bill Murray, Ghostbusters, Groundhog Day), he sets out on a journey of self-discovery while evading the man-hunting Shere Khan. Along the way, Mowgli encounters jungle creatures who do not exactly have his best interests at heart including Kaa (Scarlett Johansson, Lucy, The Avengers) the python and the smooth-talking orangutan (Christopher Walken, Pulp Fiction, Catch Me If You Can), who tries to coerce Mowgli into giving up the secret to the elusive and deadly "red flower", which is how he refers to fire.

The trend of bringing the classics of Disney’s backlog to the big screen in a live action story isn’t slowing down. After Alice in Wonderland, Cinderella, the upcoming Beauty and the Beast; now we have The Jungle Book.

Even if you haven’t seen it, there is little chance of anyone not knowing the basic story. A young human boy is found in the woods by a black panther, Bagheera, voiced by Sir Ben Kingsley (Ghandi, The This may be one to take the kids to, Prince of Persia, Hugo). He leaves the boy although with the realistic characters comes scarier moments with the not so with wolves to be raised by them.

As time passes, Mowgli enjoys his life in the nice creatures that reside in the woods. jungle among his adopted family. But Release date: 15/04/16 when the fearsome Bengal tiger Shere

Criminal

Sporting a rather impressive cast, Criminal sees the memories Gadot also stars along with acting greats and skills of a deceased CIA agent Tommy Lee Jones (The Fugitive) and Gary Oldman (The Dark Knight).

(Ryan Reynolds, Deadpool) implanted into an unpredictable and dangerous convict, Jericho Stewart Release date: 15/04/16 (Kevin Costner, The Bodyguard, Robin Hood: Price of Thieves), in order to finish an incomplete mission.

The story has a face-off feel to it without such a far-reaching stretch from reality. There is plenty of action, which you would expect, but the transformation of the hardened criminal into someone who cares about the lives of others gives the film some much needed heart behind the violence.

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot Dissatisfied with the state of her career covering low-profile stories, television journalist Kim Baker (Tina Fey, 30 Rock) agrees to take a short assignment as a war correspondent in Afghanistan during Operation Enduring Freedom, to the disappointment of her boyfriend, who also spends a lot of time travelling.

Assigned low-budget living quarters with other international journalists, she begins friendships with noted Australian correspondent Tanya Vanderpoel (Margot Robbie, The Wolf of Wall Street) and openly lecherous Scottish freelance photographer Iain MacKelpie (Martin Freeman, Sherlock). After a period of adjustment aided by her Afghan "fixer" Fahim Ahmadzai (Christopher Abbott), she begins taking well to the assignment, eliciting frank remarks on camera from soldiers questioning the value of their assignment there, and putting herself in harm's way to capture combat incidents on video. American Marines commander General Hollanek (Billy Bob Thornton, Armageddon) takes a dim view of her, as an inexperienced nuisance.

Despite their mutual friendliness, Kim remains in competition with other journalists for stories and for resources from their employers back home. Kim flies to New York to argue for more support from her network's new boss, only to discover that Tanya is slated to take over from her.

Based on a true story, Whiskey Tango Foxtrot is a 2016 American war dramedy directed by Glenn Ficarra and John Requa (I Love You Phillip Morris, Crazy, Stupid, Love), and written by Robert Carlock (Saturday Night Live, 30 Rock), based on the memoir The Taliban Shuffle: Strange Days in Afghanistan and Pakistan by Kim Barker.

It may seem strange to see Tina Fey in a more serious role but there are comedy moments which lighten the mood in a dark time. It is definitely worth a watch.

Release date: 22/04/16

Captain America: Civil War So last month we had Batman V Superman, now it seems Captain America and Iron Man have had a falling out.

Whatever DC Comics can do, Marvel can do as well.

One year after the events of Avengers: Age of Ultron, another international incident involving the Avengers resulting in collateral damage occurs, prompting politicians to form a system of accountability and a governing body to determine when to call in the team.

Pressure mounts to install a system of accountability and the new status quo deeply divides members of the team. Captain America (Chris Evans) believes super heroes should remain free to defend humanity without government interference. Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) sharply disagrees and supports oversight. As the debate escalates into an all-out feud,

Some have to travel to Sheffield to attend an interview and others have to endure a TEN minute interview on the telephone with questions which they might not understand. In most cases it could mean that they will lose some or all of the benefits they were at present entitled to.

Concerns were expressed about the changes to Adult Care and the fact that some of our patients might not be receiving the care they need, which could be due to cuts in the Care system.

The group also talked again about the HIGH COST of MEDICATION WASTAGE and we discussed how to get the message across to our patients. Getting messages across to patients will be much easier when the new 42" TV SCREENS are installed because we will have access to enable us to put messages on the screen.

Bolsover Town Under 9’s - The Journey Begins‌ I didn't want my son to play football until he was at least 10 years old. I have had a lifelong love affair with the "beautiful game", but I have also witnessed how it can turn perfectly normal and decent people turn into irrational and aggressive nutcases. I genuinely believed my biggest passion would turn my son into a monster, I would often ask myself "Why on earth would I expose him this?"

I then took him to his first match Mansfield Town v Carlisle, played against a backdrop of a near empty stadium, a number of thugs and terrible weather. The game itself was bad enough to put anyone off for life, ' mission accomplished' I thought to myself. However William didn't see it that way and he loved every second.

I could see it in his face the obsession had been passed down the family line. It was now his turn to enjoy the few highs and the many lows that I have endured for nearly thirty years.

Since that game I have been relentlessly harassed to sign him up for a team. I finally relented in January 2016 when I was chatting to my friend John. John told me that he had signed his son up for Bolsover Town Fc. Despite our sons both being 7 years old the team we joined was for 8 year olds as it was the only age group available.

A small bit of research into Bolsover Town Fc made me feel better. Having grown up in and around Bolsover it has always missed a proper football club with the interest of Bolsover's kids at its heart.

Neighbouring town Shirebrook has both a semi-professional club and the long standing youth football club Shirebrook Rangers. I have admired the Rangers from afar for many years (although as rival towns I don't like to admit it!).

Despite being rival towns who are positioned at the centre of the Chesterfield / Mansfield divide the two towns share many traits. The hearts of these towns beat their hardest when the pits were open.

Since they closed both towns have gradually become more and more deprived, with local businesses and local pubs problem this closing more and more often. It is a heart causes is that breaking story shared across much of the they cannot reasonably midlands and northern England. compete with other sides as the under 8 Yet in Shirebrook football has laid players are just simply not developed the path for many to become successful enough. adults and has helped forge the future of After training John told me he was many boys and girls from the town.

Derbyshire Woman beat cancer but was left with… …chronic body tissue condition Joanne Turley, 61, was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2011. Having had a mastectomy and undergone surgery to remove the lymph nodes in her armpits, Joanne beat the cancer but unfortunately developed Lymphoedema as a result of the illness. Lymphoedema, a chronic condition caused by problems with the lymphatic system that results in swelling in the body's tissues, can often be a side effect resulting from operations to treat cancer. Joanne shares her story on developing the condition and how the team at Ashgate Hospicecare helped reduce her swelling.

Joanne says: “When you get diagnosed with cancer, you get given so much information that it’s impossible to register all of it. When I had my lymph nodes removed, my local hospital told me to limit any physical activity as I was at risk of developing Lymphoedema. But because I didn’t see a lot of people at the clinic wearing sleeves, personally it didn’t register with me that it could be a problem. I’m a keen gardener and I wanted to continue doing what I loved, so I didn’t stop the physical activity like I was supposed to. I should have been a lot more aware of the symptoms of Lymphoedema but I wasn’t paying Attention.

“I was getting ready for bed one night after a day of gardening and suddenly noticed that my fingers and my right hand were completely swollen. That was the start of it. Things moved very

quickly after that and I was seen by the Lymphoedema team at the hospital the following week. It’s only my right arm that’s affected so they got me some compression sleeves to help the swelling.

“When I first found out that I had Lymphoedema, I was cross with myself because I know I overdid it. Having had it happen, I stop now and think ‘I shouldn’t be lifting this’ which stops me from overdoing it. But once you’ve had cancer you’re at risk of Lymphoedema for the rest of your life. You won’t always get it straight away; I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2011 but didn’t develop Lymphoedema until 2013. But I’ve accepted that I have to live with it.

“When I moved from Salford to Chesterfield, I was referred to Ashgate Hospicecare’s Lymphoedema team. Everyone at the hospice is so great – it’s a lovely, friendly place. I love it. I don’t go to the hospice for end-of-life care but I’m not treated any differently to those that do. I’ve been coming for 18 months and with trial and error we’ve finally found a sleeve that is comfortable and thankfully the swelling of my arm has shrunk and shrunk.”

Although the swelling in Joanne’s right arm has significantly decreased since visiting the hospice, Joanne has had to make several adjustments as a result of the condition.

“I find it difficult to find clothes that fit and are comfortable. I want to wear clothes that cover my sleeve, because people stare sometimes. I just ignore it,

but for some people it could be quite offensive. It’s like if you choose not to wear a wig when you’ve had chemotherapy and you wear a headscarf instead. You suddenly become aware that everybody’s looking at you. So I like to wear clothes that cover my sleeve but even that can be a problem. The other day I tried on a really nice top in Marks and Spencer but the sleeve wasn’t big enough, and my arm is a lot smaller now than it was before! You find yourself going for bigger sizes, but then it just looks wrong.

“I automatically carry my bag on my right shoulder too, so when I carry it on my left it just doesn’t feel right. It’s like if you’re right handed and you suddenly have to start using your left hand – it off balances you. Its silly things like that that you don’t realise have a big impact. Or I’ll go to grab something that might be heavy and I have to remind myself ‘Hold on, I can’t lift that. I’ve got to get somebody to help me.’ It’s not good. But I’m glad I’ve had the support from the hospice to help me find a sleeve that fits properly and works for me.”

The Power Of Laughter…

Do you smile at your reflection when you look in the mirror every morning?

No? Well, you should as this is a really great way to begin your day. The moment you start to smile or chuckle your body releases a cocktail of happy chemicals which have amazing benefits for your physical and emotional well being. You don’t even have to feel happy for this release to occur nor do you need any stimulus to laugh, as your body doesn’t know the Difference between real and fake laughter!

Laughter is free, environmentally friendly and you have the ability to do it 24/7, wherever you are, whoever you are with and whatever your age!

Maybe unconditional laughter will become an alternative to pills, potions and prescriptions for some people. It has been shown to ease pain, lower blood pressure, strengthen the immune system, increase creativity, provide aerobic exercise for internal organs, relieve symptoms of anxiety and depression, increase oxygen levels in the body and is an amazing stress buster.

“Laughter is the only medicine without side effects.” Shannon L Alder.

So start to incorporate laughter into your daily routine.

Practise laughing when you wake in the morning, Start off with one minute and gradually increase the time until you easily laugh for between ten and fifteen

minutes. This will put you in a good mood for the rest of the day.

Laugh before you go to sleep and the worries of the day will diminish, your sleep will be deeper and you will wake feeling refreshed.

Reward yourself with a smile every time you complete a task.

Stick a smiley face on a kitchen cupboard door and laugh at it every time you open it.

Sing your favourite song, substituting ha ha ha for the real words.

Another behavioural advantages include reducing dominance and aggressive behaviour to others and indeed others to them. It can also calm some dogs down and make them more focused on humans and the relationship with their So all being fair last month we talked owners than on other male or female about the advantages and dogs. disadvantages of spaying and so this From a health prospective there are month it seemed only fair we turned also a number of key advantages to our attention to the male variety and castration.

Like spaying there are a number of Disadvantages advantages to neutering. The first one Nothing is always one sided and is obviously that once castrated your castration can also have some dog won’t be able to get a female dog Negatives. ‘in the family way’.

The other health risk again like that in spaying is that castration does require an anaesthetic and there are always health risks with general anaesthetics in humans and animals.

Finally, if castration is done too early before full growth is complete in dogs there does appear to be good evidence that it can impact bone growth and issues such as hip dysplasia.

April/May 2016

Music has always been the prime priority in John's life. From an early age he showed his enthusiasm, and was quickly encouraged by his parents who saw where his interest were and directed him wisely by introducing him to piano lessons and buying him the all-important first instrument. Continuing his piano studies he went on to pass his Royal School of Music examinations and participated in many musical festivals in Brighton, his hometown.

There was a deep flair for the show business side too. John went to the Brighton School of Drama where he took part in acting, elocution and dancing lessons. It was thought he might find his future in ballet when his dance teacher arranged an audition at the famous Sadlers Wells Ballet before a panel including Beryl Gray. He was offered a place in the second company of the Ballet but John's back was a weakness. However, the knowledge of dance and stage craft has helped him over the years in his varied work.
