Attention is the ability to select and maintain in consciousness an external event or thought. It corresponds to a general state of alertness and vigilance that allows the nervous system to be receptive to any form of information that reaches it. Attention disorders concern children or adults who cannot remain concentrated for sufficiently long periods on a task, even if it requires little intellectual effort and is routine or familiar (e.g. revision or copying work).

According to the work of Dr. A. Tomatis, dys disorders are associated, among other things, with a deficit of the vestibular integrator which does not do its job properly. In other words, dys people have difficulty with the notions of verticality, laterality, kinetics and statics (acceleration, braking and stopping). These are all notions that are largely based on information coming from the vestibular system, and which are necessary in most of the learning impacted by dys disorders.

The difficulties of people with autism or late development affect many areas, especially those that require or cause contact with the environment. These are severe and early disturbances, characterized by delays and alterations in the development of the capacities of social, cognitive and communication interactions.

Individuals with psychomotor disorders may struggle with muscle tone, coordination, balance, and posture, making even everyday tasks difficult. They may also experience difficulties with initiating or inhibiting movements, leading to impulsivity and hyperactivity. Furthermore, these disorders can also manifest in emotional and behavioral symptoms, such as difficulties with self-regulation and controlling emotions.

The Tomatis method aims to give people who want to learn a new language the ability to truly master the rhythms and sounds of that language by allowing their ears to adapt effectively to them. This process involves freeing oneself from the rhythmic and sound habits of one's native language, which can often have a negative impact on the language being learned. Unlock new opportunities and enrich your life by learning a foreign language!
