Relative to the extensive neuroscientific work on seated meditation practices, far less studies have investigated the neural mechanisms underlying movement-based contemplative practices such as yoga or tai chi. Movement-based practices have, however, been found to be effective for relieving the symptoms of several clinical conditions, and to elicit measurable changes in physiological, neural, and behavioral parameters in healthy individuals. An important challenge for neuroscience is therefore to advance our understanding of the neurophysiological and neurocognitive mechanisms underlying these observed effects, and this Research Topic aims to make a contribution in this regard. It showcases the current state of the art of investigations on movement-based practices including yoga, tai chi, the Feldenkrais Method, as well as dance. Featured contributions include empirical research, proposals of theoretical frameworks, as well as novel perspectives on a variety of issues relevant to the field. This Research Topic is the first of its kind to specifically attempt a neurophysiological and neurocognitive characterization that spans multiple mindful movement approaches, and we trust it will be of interest to basic scientists, clinical researchers, and contemplative practitioners alike.

Instant karma !, la chanson de John Lennon résume à elle seule le tournant des années 1970 où se croisent, en Occident, protestation sociale et culturelle, renouveau religieux et fascination pour l’Orient Cette attirance n’est pas nouvelle. Mais avec la contre-culture de cette décennie, elle ne passe plus par une connaissance intellectuelle ou une inspiration artistique, mais par l’adoption de valeurs religieuses et l’expérimentation de leurs pratiques. Quarante ans après, ces mouvements religieux enracinés dans l’hindouisme subsistent encore, et une mosaïque de pratiques dites orientales se répand et alimente la société de consommation : on est entré dans l’ère du Karma Cola, selon G. Mehta, essayiste indienne qui. déjà en 1979, annonçait la globalisation et la commerciali­sation de I’« Orient ». La séduction que suscitent les « spiritualités orientales » s'exprime notamment par le succès de gurus indiens. Parcourant le monde pour propager leur enseignement et transplanter des ashrams, ils ont su créer des mouvements religieux planétaires. En prenant pour cas d'études le Siddha Yoga et les Centres Sivananda de Yoga Vedanta, ce livre offre une analyse inédite de la diffusion des pratiques et des valeurs se référant à l'hindouisme. Il analyse la manière dont ces mouvements religieux acquièrent une dimension transnationale, et l'accueil qui leur est fait en France et en Angleterre. Apparaissent alors les affinités entre hindouisme et renouveau du croire, à travers différentes manifestations : refus des formes extérieures du religieux, spiritualité utilitaire, intériorisation, religion « expérientielle », concordances avec la psychologie. L'engouement persistant pour ces fragments d’« Orient mystique » révèle des caractéristiques de la sensibilité religieuse contemporaine, et conduit à reconsidérer la place de la mystique dans la modernité.

The primary goals of this Special Issue are to encourage readers to become more familiar with the range of mind-body therapies and to explore their application in the pediatric clinical setting. The Issue provides background and literature updates on several of the most commonly used mind-body therapies including biofeedback, clinical hypnosis, guided imagery, meditation, and yoga. The emerging technology of immersive virtual reality is also explored. The Special Issue includes a deliberate mix of case studies and practical clinical guidance, with the dual goals of piquing curiosity and providing resources for clinicians interested in pursuing further training.
