Groundbreaking and encouraging for
children suffering from ADHD or anxiety issues.
The management of anxiety disorders in
children is, from the perspective of many parents, an incredibly challenging
task. However, it is essential for the adult caregiver to grasp the concept
that worry is, in fact, a natural component of childhood. Every child goes
through stages in their development in which they may suffer mild kinds of
anxiety. Despite this, there are a great number of children that never grow out
of this phase. The child will begin to feel fear, will get more nervous, and
may even begin to avoid activities, places, and situations because of their
anxieties. One can say that an anxiety condition affects the child because of
the way in which they are suffering. The reader of this book will be introduced
to a number of beneficial coping skills that will assist them in overcoming the
challenges presented by ADHD or anxiety disorders in children.
Dr. Meron Barak, who lectures on
integrative medicine at the Technion in Haifa, was born in Israel and finished
medical school in 1991. He’s a family doctor who specializes in mental health
for children and adults. He trained in Switzerland and Germany in
anthroposophical medicine, dynamic psychotherapy, and ADHD diagnosis and
treatment. In Harduf and Kiryat Tivon, Israel, Dr. Barak founded the first
anthroposophical medicine clinic for acute and chronic disorders. He has been a
medical doctor in Waldorf schools and kindergartens for over 27 years,
providing workshops on mental health issues for caregivers worldwide.
As outlined in the synopsis, Dr. Barak
states that over the past four decades, attention deficit and anxiety disorders
have become the most common disorders in school-aged children. Despite this
alarming trend, medical and educational systems have yet to solve either
disorder. “Restless Children” provides an innovative strategy to help children
with ADHD or anxiety issues succeed in school and at home. Dr. Barak's holistic
approach merges medicine and anthroposophical pedagogy. His pioneering method
presented here in this well-written and researched book is aimed at assisting
children who suffer from attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) or
anxiety disorders to thrive in both their academic and family lives.
If you are a parent of a child that
suffers from ADHD or anxiety issues or working with children professionally, this
excellent resource offers ‘step-by-step solutions to ensure that every child
suffering from ADHD or an anxiety disorder is empowered to reach their full
potential.’
Groundbreaking, educational and
encouraging, this book comes highly recommended. I voluntarily reviewed a
complimentary copy of this book.
