A manual for parents, teachers, and kids to restore their natural alignment
• Explores the principles of natural alignment in accessible ways to share with children
• Details simple and fun exercises--for kids and adults alike--that "remind" the body of its natural patterns and movements
• Explains how innate movements and natural alignment play an essential role in the development of a fully functioning body and nervous system
Babies and toddlers develop naturally healthy alignment by moving in instinctive ways. Their posture is easy and relaxed, founded on correct pelvic positioning and deep core muscles to hold their bodies upright. Yet, as evidenced by the slouching epidemic seen in school-age children, most kids lose this natural alignment early in life, often due to an overreliance on strollers, baby seats, and bucket-style carriers during infancy and the reluctance to put babies on their bellies because of widespread fear of SIDS.
In this richly illustrated manual for parents, teachers, and kids themselves, movement educator and researcher Kathleen Porter explains how to relearn natural alignment with a simple movement routine that "reminds" the body of its natural patterns. Detailing the principles of natural alignment in accessible ways to share with children, she also explores research on the importance of "tummy time" and how the movement patterns present at birth act as an engine that activates neural pathways to key areas of the brain. In this way, movement plays an essential role in the development of a fully functioning nervous system, coordinated muscle tone, and a strong, internal core that stabilizes the spine and prepares the baby for the soon-to-be-acquired upright position. The author explains how many children who struggle with a growing number of neurodevelopmental challenges, including autism, learning disabilities, and ADHD, also exhibit poor muscle tone, lack of core development, and difficulties with balance and coordination.
With a multitude of easy-to-follow principles and exercises--far more fun and effective than the futile mantra of "sit up straight"--Kathleen Porter provides a detailed road map for parents, teachers, and health professionals to learn how to guide children back to their natural posture by inhabiting their bodies mindfully for a lifetime of easy movement, strength, and energetic vitality--the hallmarks of enduring good health.
