Mending the Body with the Mind: Harnessing Kids' Superpowers to Heal and Stay Healthy


Overview

Explore the powerful link between mind and body in children's health and discover how integrating imagination into modern medicine can promote healing. With over 30 years of experience in pediatric medicine, Dr. David Gottsegen shares how the profound connection between the mind and the body can change the way we practice children's health. In his unique approach, Dr. Gottsegen emphasizes the use of a special superpower of children: Their active imaginations! Dr. Gottsegen includes stories from his extensive years of practice as well as the latest behavioral research to expand on how imagination-and specifically clinical hypnosis and meditation-can help treat and alleviate fears about pokes, headaches, stomachaches, bedwetting, sleep issues, tic disorders, sports medicine, and a host of other common pediatric disorders. Parents who pick up this book can learn how to effectively advocate for their children when seeking healthcare and help them avoid needless discomfort and tests. Together with the knowledge in this book, parents can teach children skills to avoid chronic pain, sleep better, overcome anxiety and depression, and lead healthier happier lives.
