Abstract

The study related to Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Yoga for Kids program, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) among children with ASD from infancy(sixth month) to middle childhood (12 years old) (Domain). The research topic-- “is yoga for kids an effective way to help children with ASD-- is inspired by the real case of a 7-year-old child’s reaction to a 2-week yoga for kids program--he no longer avoids interaction with other adults and is more attached to his mother. Five articles are examined to prove that yoga for kids, which can be categorized as a part of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), is an effective treatment for kids with ASD by enhancing their social engagement and preventing the future possibility that the children with ASD experience high levels of anxiety.
