¡Mindfulness para peques! Enseña a tus hijos a gestionar sus emociones y a escucharse a ellos mismos. Ejercitar la mente de nuestros hijos debería ser tan importante como cuidar su cuerpo. Este libro nos ayudará a enseñar a nuestros hijos una nueva manera de ver el mundo para controlar sus emociones, a través de técnicas de mindfulness adaptadas a su edad y a los problemas y personalidad de cada niño. Sin darnos cuenta, el frenético ritmo del día a día afecta de manera devastadora al desarrollo emocional de nuestros hijos. Por un lado, conductas como las rabietas y los celos y, por otro, la incapacidad de los pequeños para desarrollar la atención son el reflejo de nuestros hábitos dictados por el estrés. Con el fin de ayudar a nuestros hijos a gestionar las emociones, conocer sus propios sentimientos y mejorar su capacidad de atención, Teresa Moroño, tras años impartiendo cursos a niños y adolescentes, nos guiará por el viaje del mindfulness a través de cuentos y explicaciones prácticas y sencillas para el día a día. Además, Teresa incluye capítulos especiales para situaciones más difíciles como el bullying. A partir de sus indicaciones, el lector podrá crear su propio programa de mindfulness adaptado para cada niño. Los pequeños aprenderán a buscar la felicidad en su interior y a jerarquizar sus pensamientos para centrar el foco en el aquí y el ahora. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Mindfulness for the little ones! Teach your children how to direct their emotions, and listen to themselves. Exercising our children’s minds should be as important as caring for their body. This book will help us teach our children a new way of seeing the world which will help them control their emotions, through mindfulness techniques tailored to their ages and personalities. Without realizing it, the hectic pace of everyday life affects our children’s emotional development in a devastating way. With the goal of helping our children manage their emotions, identify and understand their own feelings, and improve their attention skills, Teresa Moroño, after many years of teaching children and teenagers, will guide us through the journey of mindfulness, through stories and concrete accounts. In addition, Teresa includes special chapters for more difficult situations such as bullying. Based on her suggestions, readers will be able to create their own mindfulness program adjusted for each individual child. The little ones will learn to look for happiness within themselves and to organize their thoughts in a way to bring the focus to the here and now.

This handbook addresses the educational uses of mindfulness in schools. It summarizes the state of the science and describes current and emerging applications and challenges throughout the field. It explores mindfulness concepts in scientific, theoretical, and practical terms and examines training opportunities both as an aspect of teachers’ professional development and a means to enhance students’ social-emotional and academic skills. Chapters discuss mindfulness and contemplative pedagogy programs that have produced positive student outcomes, including stress relief, self-care, and improved classroom and institutional engagement. Featured topics include: A comprehensive view of mindfulness in the modern era. Contemplative education and the roots of resilience. Mindfulness practice and its effect on students’ social-emotional learning. A cognitive neuroscience perspective on mindfulness in education that addresses students’ academic and social skills development. Mindfulness training for teachers and administrators. Two universal mindfulness education programs for elementary and middle school students. The Handbook of Mindfulness in Education is a must-have resource for researchers, graduate students, clinicians, and practitioners in psychology, psychiatry, education, and medicine, as well as counseling, social work, and rehabilitation therapy.

Applied Biomechatronics Using Mathematical Models provides an appropriate methodology to detect and measure diseases and injuries relating to human kinematics and kinetics. It features mathematical models that, when applied to engineering principles and techniques in the medical field, can be used in assistive devices that work with bodily signals. The use of data in the kinematics and kinetics analysis of the human body, including musculoskeletal kinetics and joints and their relationship to the central nervous system (CNS) is covered, helping users understand how the complex network of symbiotic systems in the skeletal and muscular system work together to allow movement controlled by the CNS. With the use of appropriate electronic sensors at specific areas connected to bio-instruments, we can obtain enough information to create a mathematical model for assistive devices by analyzing the kinematics and kinetics of the human body. The mathematical models developed in this book can provide more effective devices for use in aiding and improving the function of the body in relation to a variety of injuries and diseases. - Focuses on the mathematical modeling of human kinematics and kinetics - Teaches users how to obtain faster results with these mathematical models - Includes a companion website with additional content that presents MATLAB examples
