        Respiration

        Anatomie - geste respiratoire

        by Blandine Calais-Germa

        There are at least a hundred ways to breathe... and even more... Why are some ways of breathing active while others are passive? How can apnea be at the same time a period of rest and one of intense activity? Breathing is an extremely diversified action. Most of the time, we are not aware of our breathing, because we are so intimate with it, and because it becomes a part of something we are doing – a body movement that entails more than breathing alone. All forms of breathing rely, in the beginning, on two fundamental mechanisms and their variants, which can differ in degree, and combine in any number of ways. This book proposes to explore breathing gestures: by describing the process, explaining the anatomic systems, and identifying the forces at play through the practice of numerous exercises. The reader will learn that there are no bad ways of breathing, that each, in its own way, is important: each will accompany our movement in certain situations, and be appropriate for achieving specific goals. Throughout the book, the reader is called upon to go against the flow and against generally accepted ideas that have been going around about breathing in body-work circles. This manual is written for all professionals who use breathing in their work. - physical therapists, midwives, psychomotor specialists, etc. - P.E. teachers, water-gym instructors, sport techniques, yoga, body consciousness, etc. - professionals in the living arts: music, singing, theatre, dance, mime, circus, etc. - teachers, journalists, lawyers, etc. - phoniatricians, speech therapists, etc. - relaxologists, sophrologists, psychiatrists, psychotherapists, psychologists, psychoanalysts, etc.

        Fascia: The Body's Fabric of Life

        by Sue Adstrum PhD

        Imagine this wetsuit alive, dynamic, infused with an energy – a spirit – that disappears when we die. This wetsuit, The Living Wetsuit, is a simple analogy that helps explain and demystify fascia, the main connective tissue in our body. Understanding fascia is the key to understanding our own bodies and health, giving us a powerful tool to improve the ways we look after, treat, and heal ourselves. In the Living Wetsuit, Sue Adstrum traces the fascinating history of anatomy, explaining how and why our understanding of the human body – particularly fascia – has evolved over time. Exploring the crucial role fascia plays in our body, the book explains how it becomes damaged or hurt over time, and the practical solutions we can use to fix and care for our fascia. A unique, engaging analysis on the intersections of historic, cultural, and medical knowledge, The Living Wetsuit is an essential read for anyone who has a body. CONTENTS Include:1 – Anatomy Matters2 – Anatomies3 – Anatomised Bodies4 – Fascia5 – Fascial Anatomy6 – The Living Wetsuit7 – The Body’s Fabric of Life8 – When Things Start to Go Wrong with the Living Wetsuit9 – Healing the Living Wetsuit10 – The Living Wetsuit in the 21st Century

        Neurobehavioral Anatomy

        by Christopher M Filley

        Thoroughly revised and updated to reflect key advances in behavioural neurology, this is a clinically based account of the neuroanatomy of human behaviour centred on a consideration of behavioural dysfunction caused by disorders of the brain. A concise introduction to brain-behaviour relationships that enhances patient care and assists medical students, the book also serves as a handy reference to researchers, neuroscientists, psychiatrists, and geriatricians. The book outlines how cognitive and emotional functions are represented and organised in the brain to produce the behaviours regarded as uniquely human. It reviews the effects of focal and diffuse brain lesions, and from this analysis a conception of the normal operations of the healthy brain emerges. Christopher M Filley integrates data and material from different disciplines to create a concise and accessible synthesis that informs the clinical understanding of brain-behaviour relationships. Clinically practical and theoretically stimulating, the book is an invaluable resource for those involved in the clinical care and study of people with neurobehavioral disorders. Including a useful glossary and extensive references guiding users to further research, the third edition will be of significance to medical students, residents, fellows, practising physicians, and the general reader interested in neurology.
