How to read this book
The book "Gaston is angry" - this is a great way to spend time with the benefit with the baby.
The child learns about the basic emotion - anger - and learns to cope with it with the help of a special exercise, which combines visualization (representing his emotion in the form of a cloud), respiratory practice and motor activity (shoulders and clenching the cams), helping to lose Stress in the body.
Due to the tension and subsequent relaxation (squeezing and unclenching of fists), the effect of relaxation is achieved - the arms, thoracic region and shoulders, relax. In the process of performing the exercise, there is a kind of release of experiences using a strong exhalation through the mouth.
The presentation of its anger in the form of a cloud gives an additional effect and figuratively helps to disperse it. Some children easily imagine a “cloud of anger”, at first this can cause difficulties - this is normal and does not greatly affect the effectiveness of the entire exercise. The ability to visualize your emotions comes with practice.
The exercise is repeated three times to consolidate the effect, since the first time not all children can perform it correctly. After the exercise, a feeling of devastation, powerlessness can come, since anger itself is a costly emotion, which contains a lot of energy. And then a new visual image comes to the rescue: a place freed in the sky after a cloud of anger bursts is occupied by the sun. The child, along with Gaston, lived his emotion, coped with her and found peace again!

For whom this book
