“…The more difficult the posture, the greater the cognitive load and the stronger the corresponding PFC activation. Cecchini et al (2016) found that motor imagery is developed linked to the development of motor skills. Therefore, enhanced activation in the PFC during actual performance of postures may be a reasonable interpretation for efficient neural recruitment during the mental imagery of postures.…”

ObjectivePrevious research has shown numerous health benefits of yoga, a multicomponent physical and mental activity. The three important aspects of both traditional and modern yoga are breath work, postures, and meditation. However, the neural mechanisms associated with these three aspects of yoga remain largely unknown. The present study investigated the neural underpinnings associated with each of these three yoga components in long- and short-term yoga practitioners to clarify the neural advantages of yoga experience, aiming to provide a more comprehensive understanding of yoga’s health-promoting effects.MethodsParticipants were 40 Chinese women, 20 with a long-term yoga practice and 20 with a short-term yoga practice. Functional near-infrared spectroscopy was conducted while participants performed abdominal breathing, mental imagery of yoga postures, and mindfulness meditation. The oxygenated hemoglobin concentrations activated in the brain during these three tasks were used to assess the neural responses to the different aspects of yoga practice. The self-reported mastery of each yoga posture was used to assess the advantages of practicing yoga postures.ResultsBlood oxygen levels in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex during breath work were significantly higher in long-term yoga practitioners than in short-term yoga practitioners. In the mental imagery of yoga postures task, self-reported data showed that long-term yoga practitioners had better mastery than short-term practitioners. Long-term yoga practitioners demonstrated lower activation in the ventrolateral prefrontal cortex, with lower blood oxygen levels associated with performing this task, than short-term yoga practitioners. In the mindfulness meditation task, blood oxygen levels in the orbitofrontal cortex and the ventrolateral prefrontal cortex were significantly higher in long-term yoga practitioners than in short-term yoga practitioners.ConclusionThe three core yoga components, namely, yogic breathing, postures, and meditation, showed differences and similarities in the activation levels of the prefrontal cortex. Long-term practice of each component led to the neural benefits of efficient activation in the prefrontal cortex, especially in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, orbitofrontal cortex, and ventrolateral prefrontal cortex.

“…Este trabajo establecerá mejoras en todas las esferas de su desarrollo y servirá de base para aprendizajes superiores. En este bloque se podrán trabajar reptaciones, manipulaciones de objetos y móviles, gateo, saltos, lanzamientos, giros, volteos, trepa, suspensiones, marcha, carrera… (Cechini-Estrada, Fernández-Losa & Pallasá-Manteca, 2016;Andrés, 2014;Zubiaur-González, 2005). Pero también está contemplada aquí la iniciación a las habilidades gimnásticas, como la rueda lateral, el equilibrio invertido de brazos, voltereta atrás o adelante, entre otras.…”

La Educación Física en Educación Infantil concentra un gran protagonismo en el desarrollo óptimo de cada una de las esferas del niño: física, social, afectivo-emocional y psíquica. Dotar de una gran información y formación a los futuros docentes de Educación Infantil, enseñando los contenidos a tratar desde esta materia es una pieza clave en el puzle del currículo educativo. A través de este artículo se indaga en los contenidos de Educación Física que se deben abordar en las clases de Educación Infantil y cómo enseñarlos. Se expone también un modelo de ficha didáctica para el análisis de las tareas y juegos programados y un planteamiento de la sesión basada en siete momentos. Se concluye la importancia de realizar programas de Educación Física bien dirigidos y planificados para el bienestar físico, social y emocional del niño, la mejora de la adherencia al ejercicio físico y la importancia del juego como vehículo generador de aprendizaje, no solo de contenidos propios del área sino también de otras áreas temáticas. Abstract. Physical Education in Early Childhood Education focuses greatly on the optimal development of each of the children’s spheres: physical, social, affective-emotional, and psychic. Providing future Early Childhood teachers with strong information and training while teaching them the contents that need to be developed in this subject is a cornerstone of the educational curriculum. This article investigates the Physical Education contents that should be worked on within Early Childhood Education, as well as how to teach them. It also presents a didactic sheet model for the analysis of tasks and planned games, as well as an approach to sessions based on seven moments. As a conclusion, carrying out well directed and planned Physical Education programs is essential for children’s physical, social, and emotional well-being, and for increasing adherence to physical exercise. Moreover, games represent an important vehicle for generating learnings not only regarding area-specific contents, but also those from other thematic areas.
