Body Wisdom and the Polyvagal Theory: A guide to understanding safety and human connection.

This illustrated book uses engaging and brightly colored robot characters to introduce a greater understanding of how our bodies react to our environment. The color of the robots teaches the young reader about feelings of safety and connection, fear and anger, and a shut down response. The preface introduces the adult reader to the Polyvagal Theory and explains the science behind the different colors of the robots. Readers of all ages will learn tools to support one another when they are "out of that safe feeling." BODY WISDOM AND THE POLYVAGAL THEORY takes a complex and rigorous scientific text and renders it into a fun, easy and quick read for all audiences. Forward by Dr. Stephen Porges, author of THE POLYVAGAL THEORY.
