Its author is a doctor and international specialist in heart coherence, and wrote the best-seller "Cohérence cardiaque 3.6.5".
47 playful, illustrated "respiroutines", designed as breathing games to guide the child's breathing: Le calme papillon, Le cœur à deux bras, L'orchestre imaginaire, Le cercle de l'amitié, Le moulin à vent…
Exercises tested on a large scale in schools in France and Quebec, based on scientific data and on the author's experience with thousands of children.
The book, in French, is read with the child, not by the child: the adult picks a respiroutine and then guides the breathing. Each respiroutine states the age range it addresses, the aim pursued, the "superpower" or "superpowers" it activates and the way to present the exercise to the child. Some suit group practice, in a classroom for example; others a one-to-one between parent and child. A chapter called "Respiropratique" acts as a decision guide: it helps choose the exercise according to the child's age, the moment, the situation or a particular difficulty.
Count on one to several respiroutines a day, of a few minutes each, on demand or as a ritual — at bedtime, on returning from class. The practice remains a game: it is not imposed on a child who refuses it.
The exercises and the advice in this work are a complement to medical follow-up, never a substitute for it. If the child has sleep disturbances, anxiety, repeated pain or any other persistent difficulty, consult a doctor or a paediatrician: a breathing exercise replaces neither a diagnosis nor a treatment.
