Promoting Mind-Body Health in Schools: Interventions for Mental Health Professionals - Cheryl Maykel

This book discusses how to improve students' mental and physical well-being by implementing mind-body interventions in schools, including yoga, mindfulness, physical activity, and expressive therapy. Chapters review the benefits, limitations, and potential risks associated with these and other practices. Following a three-tiered service delivery model, they provide recommendations for applying interventions universally, with small groups, and with individual students. They also address how to target specific issues, such as eating disorders, chronic pain, sleep disorders, and trauma.
