“In our busy lives, it’s easy to get caught up in the grind and overlook our own well-being,” said Asner. “But we cannot allow that to happen. Prioritizing our own physical, mental, and emotional health has to come first. When we take care of ourselves, we’re better prepared to face life’s challenges and embrace its opportunities. National Wellness Month is a wonderful reminder that investing in our health is the most important investment of all.”
As a businessman, Scott Asner advocates creating a work culture where wellness is integrated into daily routines and business practices. He is a firm believer in the benefits of mindfulness, healthy habits, time management, and Stoicism.
In honor of National Wellness Month, Scott Asner encourages everyone to take a moment to reflect on their own wellness practices and consider making positive changes. Whether it’s through adopting healthier habits, seeking mental health support, or simply taking time to relax and recharge, Asner believes that every small step towards wellness contributes to a more fulfilling and productive life.

Young Dominican-born author captivates readers with bestselling books that teach children about emotions, feelings, and emotional intelligence.
NEW YORK, Aug. 29, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Jomo Jesus Thomas Suriel, a brilliant 8-year-old author, is making a big splash in the children’s book world. His books, which explore emotions and emotional intelligence, are huge hits with young readers. Jomo, born in the Dominican Republic and raised in the United States, is a real rising star in the world of books. His books have even made it to Amazon’s bestseller list.
Jomo’s story is one for the books, truly inspiring. Arriving in the USA, only speaking Spanish, Jomo quickly learned English and, by the age of four, had already authored two children’s picture books. His first titles, “Super Happy Kid Defeats the Angries” and “Super Happy Kid in Angry Land,” immediately resonated with young readers, focusing on the essential skills of managing emotions and understanding feelings.
Now, Jomo introduces his latest book, “Emotions Volcano,” which has become an Amazon bestseller in the Children’s Ebooks category. The story follows Laura, the Emotions Explorer, and her brother Sid, the Super Happy Kid, as they embark on adventures to help children identify and control their emotions. With vivid illustrations by Jomo’s father, Jomo Gamal Thomas, “Emotions Volcano” is both a captivating and educational tool for young minds.
Jomo’s work has not only captivated young readers but also garnered praise from parents, educators, and child development experts. Cate Hogan, a bestselling developmental book editor for the Washington Post and USA Today, called “Emotions Volcano” a “life-saver for kids and families,” adding, “I love having a tool to explore feelings that also doubles as a fun bedtime story. Emotions shouldn’t be confusing, and learning shouldn’t be boring. Highly recommend!”
Sandra Maria Clifton, the editor of “Emotions Volcano,” stated, “Use this fun story to teach all children, including neurodiverse learners, about big emotions and feelings and the importance of mindfulness, self-awareness, and anger management. Jomo’s books are invaluable resources for teaching children the importance of emotional intelligence.”
Jomo’s books aren’t just stories; they’re like superheroes helping kids understand their feelings. They teach kids about emotional intelligence, empathy, and making good friends. These books are really helpful for kids who might have ADHD or autism, too.
“Emotional intelligence is a vital skill for children to learn,” says Jomo. “I want to help kids understand their feelings so they can handle them better and be kind to others.”
Jomo’s upcoming books, “The Angry Vacuum” and “Critical Critters,” promise to continue his mission of making emotional intelligence accessible and engaging for young readers.
About the Author
When Jomo Jesus Thomas Suriel is not writing, he enjoys boxing, swimming, coding, and learning new languages, including Mandarin and Hebrew. He co-founded Super Happy Kid Publishing and the Smart Brain Train Academy, and his work is inspired by his experiences and his desire to help other children. His father, Jomo Gamal Thomas, is an accomplished author, illustrator, attorney, and entrepreneur, who shares his son’s passion for creating educational content that benefits children worldwide.

“Period poverty is a very real issue impacting over 500 million menstruators worldwide, but we can’t solve an issue we’re afraid to even talk about,” says Aanya Patel, founder of Global Girls Initiative.
In the U.S. 1 in 5 girls miss school because they lack access to period products. Without access to this basic hygiene necessity, girls are missing out on their fundamental right to an education, in addition to the impact on their confidence and physical and mental health.
In addition to fashion runway models, activists will be modeling the Global Girls Initiative looks, including: Ose Ehianeta Arheghan, the 12th UNA-USA Youth Observer to the United Nations; Marije Broekhuijsen, a water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) specialist leading the global menstrual health and hygiene agenda at an agency based in New York; and Laura Strausfeld, the founder of Period Law.
“With this collection we hope to spark conversation around periods and normalize menstruation,” says Patel. “Gender equality can’t be achieved without ending period poverty.”
Proceeds from the purchase go towards installing menstrual product dispensers in school restrooms across the country, ensuring that every menstruator doesn’t have to choose between their health and education. “Global Girls Initiative’s Embracing the Flow at NYFW with Runway7 this season sets a powerful example for women everywhere,” says Diane Vara, director of public relations and Communications at Runway7 Fashion. “Educating and advocating for important issues empowers us to inspire and uplift the next generation of young women.” The collection will officially launch to the public on Sept. 8 and will be available online at: globalgi.org/NYFW
About Global Girls Initiative Launched in 2020, Global Girls Initiative provides free menstrual hygiene products and education to improve the health, confidence, and self-esteem of students and youth in underserved communities. Global Girls Initiative’s goal is to end period poverty for all menstruators and remove the stigma associated with it through advocacy, ensuring that all menstruators have equal access to menstrual products and education to manage their cycle with dignity.

Parkshore Juanita Bay (PSJB) is a Washington nonprofit corporation that was originally founded in 1932 to provide housing and care for German seniors. In 1977, the organization constructed an assisted living retirement home known as The Gardens at Juanita Bay in Kirkland’s historic Juanita Bay neighborhood on the shores of Lake Washington. In December 2018, PSJB affiliated with Presbyterian Retirement Communities Northwest dba Transforming Age. In 2021, management announced plans to develop and convert the existing The Gardens at Juanita Bay into a new 50-unit independent living community to be named Parkshore Juanita Bay.
PSJB represents a bold new concept as a satellite community consisting solely of independent living, services and amenities on site with residents receiving a healthcare benefit through the broader Transforming Age network of communities or another community of their choosing.
The Series 2024 Bonds (the “Bonds”) were issued through the Washington State Housing Finance Commission and are comprised of 3 series: 2024A, 2024B-1, and 2024B-2. The 2024A Bonds consist of long-term tax-exempt fixed interest rate term bonds achieving level debt service with a 35-year final maturity (January 1, 2059) and the 2024B Bonds consist of TEMPS-85SM (2024B-1) and TEMPS-65SM (2024B-2) expected to be repaid with initial entrance fees.
The proceeds of the Bonds will be used primarily to (i) pay or reimburse the Borrower for the costs of the acquisition, development, construction, improvement and equipping of a continuing care retirement community with 50 independent living units to be known as Parkshore Juanita Bay (the “Community”) and to be located in Kirkland, Washington (the “Series 2024 Project”), (b) pay a portion of the interest on the Bonds during the construction of the Community, (c) fund debt service reserve funds for the benefit of the Bonds, and (d) pay certain costs of issuing the Bonds.
Michael Connell, Treasurer and CFO for Transforming Age stated, “The Ziegler team has been assisting Transforming Age for years on this exciting Parkshore Juanita Bay project and have been a true partner. Transforming Age is very pleased with the results of this financing as we continue to transform the perception of aging and what senior living communities can be. The Ziegler team’s expertise and experience was vital in the successful marketing of these bonds and securing financing that provides flexibility for Parkshore Juanita Bay’s future.”
Sarkis Garabedian, Managing Director, Ziegler Senior Living Finance added, “This project has been six years in the making with our long-standing client, Transforming Age. We are excited for this addition to the Transforming Age network, executing on their vision of a hub-and-spoke strategy to increase speed to market and mitigate certain risks of large-scale new campus locations. The PSJB development plan was well received by investors helping Ziegler press the max yield below 6% despite an aggressive 5-year par call feature; a strong result for a nonrecourse project.”

Ziegler offers creative, tailored solutions to its senior living clientele, including investment banking, financial risk management, merger and acquisition services, seed capital, FHA/HUD, capital and strategic planning as well as senior living research, education, and communication.
