Grâce aux progrès de la science, nous savons maintenant que le mouvement fait partie intégrante de la santé de la future maman et de son bébé. Or, puisque de grands changements s'opèrent dans le corps de la femme enceinte, la majorité des principes d'entraînement traditionnels ne s'applique plus à sa situation. C'est pourquoi ce livre propose des exercices respectant spécifiquement les besoins musculaires et articulaires qui évoluent au cours des neuf mois de la grossesse et des six mois suivant la naissance de l'enfant. Cet ouvrage contient également de judicieux conseils et de nombreux programmes pour prévenir et soulager les douleurs associées à la grossesse et à la période postnatale, pour prévenir ou éliminer les inconvénients fréquents, pour corriger les problèmes de posture les plus courants et préparer le corps à l'accouchement afin de faciliter le travail. La nouvelle maman pourra ainsi reprendre le contrôle de son corps après l'accouchement et revenir en toute sécurité à l'entraînement ou au sport.

Vous pensez que votre enfant souffre d'anxiété ? Alors ce livre est pour vous !
Que sont le stress et l'anxiété ? D'où proviennent-ils et pourquoi certains enfants et adolescents y sont-ils plus sensibles ? Quels sont les facteurs provoquant l'apparition de l'anxiété ? En quoi consistent les différents troubles anxieux ? Comment peut-on prévenir l'anxiété et, si nécessaire, la traiter ? Voilà quelques-unes des questions les plus fréquemment soulevées par les parents et les intervenants. Ariane Hébert nous propose ici des stratégies et des trucs concrets, faciles à mettre en pratique, afin d'aider l'adulte à intervenir adéquatement.
Comment apprendre à l'enfant à gérer son anxiété en :
- nourrissant son estime personnelle ;
- développant ses habiletés sociales ;
- utilisant des techniques de relaxation et de respiration ;
- remplaçant ses pensées négatives par des pensées positives ;
- l'incitant à apprivoiser ses craintes au lieu de les fuir.
Ponctué de faits vécus, de cas cliniques et de réflexions, cet ouvrage est sympathique et stimulant. La boîte à outils sera à coup sûr une aide précieuse pour les parents? et les enfants !

Abstract
In this groundbreaking book, Dr. Karen Pape tells the story of how some children with early brain damage astounded everyone around them. The brain injury they suffered at or near birth had led to motor problems such as the awkward gait we associate with cerebral palsy. Yet they were able to run, kick a soccer ball, tap dance, and play tennis. This was not supposed to happen. It ran counter to the prevailing belief that the brain is hardwired and fixed. When Dr. Pape first shared her remarkable findings, she ran into fierce opposition from mainstream medicine. Yet this courageous neonatologist didn't back down.
In her clinical practice, Pape helped many young brain-damaged children to significantly improve their movement. It led her to ask why some of them could run but not walk with the same ease. Her answer was astounding: By the time they learned to run, their brains had healed. The awkward walking gait was actually a bad habit acquired while the brain was still damaged.
This is the power and the beauty of neuroplasticity, the brain?s amazing ability to change and heal. It has revolutionized the treatment of adults who suffer stroke. Now, for the first time, this remarkable book shows that children with a brain injury at or near birth can get better, too. These stories of children?s recovery and improvements are a revelation―surprising, inspiring, and illuminating. They offer real hope for some of the world?s most vulnerable children and a better understanding of how the baby brain grows and recovers.
