Crawling and memory?

/by

If it’s true that we can associate crawling with different types of benefits, a 2007 study (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17286842) made the association between crawling and better memory!

Lefties

When one thinks of the implications of being a righty or a lefty, writing comes to mind pretty quick. Did you ever consider eye dominance? When you take a picture, you bring the camera towards one eye so you can truly see what you want to photograph. 

Posture and learning: Could there be a link between posture and learning?

/by

A recent study demonstrated that posture represents a critical aspect in the learning process in young children. Precisely, this study demonstrates that the body has a role to play in how we learn to name objects. As well, we mention that the position of the body in space is linked with our capacity to connect […]

If you’ve been reading my blogs, you’ll quickly pick up on the fact that this is not the first time I bring up the link between the feet and the eyes.

The benefits of crawling

/by

My clients tend to assume that they have earned the right to stand upright and to go about their daily activities, as if nothing! It is true that they are able to stand upright… but most of them do not have the prerequisites to do so in a balanced state. The result: adaptations that can […]
