Teaching yoga to children with Autism Spectrum Disorder and other special needs is easy with this visual guide. The book breaks down yoga teaching into every pose, every part of the body, and every breath, using understandable language and clear photographs, in order to show parents, teachers, yoga instructors, and other professionals how to introduce the long-term benefits of yoga to a child with special needs. These benefits include greater body awareness and understanding, learning to self-regulate the nervous system, and developing skills to cope with challenging emotions such as anger and anxiety. Included are creative yoga games, activities, relaxation exercises, and chair yoga poses to make learning yoga a fun, interactive, and calming experience for children with a wide range of abilities.
