Out of stock
When children do not feel safe or are chronically exposed to emotional, physical, or medical trauma (e.g., "growing up" prematurely in cribs or surgery in infancy), they develop impairments in their ability to form close, harmonious relationships in the future, and may have behavioral and physical developmental problems. Polyvagal theory describes how unconscious feelings of safety or danger in infancy influence our future emotions and behavior.
Pediatrician and neonatologist Marilyn Sanders and child psychiatrist George Thompson describe how parents, caregivers, and psychologists can work through childhood traumas and prevent them from developing in the future.
In addition, you'll understand
- how to help a child through physical or emotional trauma;
- what safety and danger neuroceptions are and how they are formed;
- how polyvagal theory can help in everyday life.
