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
Après 20 ans de recherche et d'expérimentation, Louise Reid découvre le déclencheur unique de toute anxiété. À partir d'une combinaison alliant une expérience personnelle de troubles anxieux, des études universitaires en psychologie, une longue recherche accompagnée d'expérimentations et la certitude que l'anxiété est issue d'une même source chez tous les gens affectés, Louise Reid est finalement parvenue à en cerner le déclencheur unique et, surtout, à trouver le moyen de le neutraliser presque instantanément. Dans des mots simples et accessibles, l'auteure décrit dans ce livre ce qu'est le seul déclencheur de l'anxiété, les éléments qui l'activent, le processus qui se met en branle par des poussées d'adrénaline, ainsi que la façon très efficace de le contrecarrer facilement et rapidement.

Stepping into the media spotlight as few scientists have done¯such as being one of the first to speak out against conspiracy theories linking vaccines to autism¯he found himself in the crosshairs of powerful groups intent on promoting pseudoscience. Bad Advice discusses science and its adversaries. Written with wit and passion, Offit?s often humorous guide to taking on quack experts and self-appointed activists is a must-read for anyone disturbed by the uptick in politicized attacks on science.
