First 1000 Days A Catholic Culture of Life Initiative
Sunday April 24, 2016 Where All Are Welcomed and Loved With Mercy - Day 406
When infants are held and touched in soothing ways, they tend to thrive. Warm, responsive care seems to have a
protective function, to some extent "immunizing" an infant against the effects of stress experienced later in life.
Los Primeros 1000 Días Una Cultura Catolica de la Iniciativa de Vida
Domingo 24 de abril del 2016 Donde todos son acogidos y amados por la misericordia
Cuando los niños son abrazados y son tocados suavemente, tienden prosperar. Cuidado sensible y cálido tiene una función protectora, en cierta medida "inmunizar" a un bebé contra los
efectos del estrés en el futuro.
Attention College Bound Seniors Don’t be one of the 80% of Catholics who stop practicing their
