- Abstract
The purpose of this study is to summarize research investigating the potential benefits of the Dejian Mind-Body Intervention (DMBI) in enhancing the functioning of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) as well as further explore its potential mechanisms. The DMBI is the organic integration of Shaolin Chanwuyi and modern psychosomatic medicine. It is unique and has substantial effects on children with ASD. The DMBI primarily relies on traditional health regimens such as Neiyanggong(Qigong of the Shaolin Temple), Zen meditation (meditation of the Shaolin Temple), regulated diet, and Tongqiao (keep bodily opening healthy) to enhance patients’ brain functioning, thereby improving self-control, promoting mental development, and reducing repetitive behaviors. The DMBI is safe, effective, and economical, making it worthy of wider attention. The DMBI is recognized as possessing a distinct advantage in mitigating the symptoms of ASD in children. Hence, it has potential to serve as an intervention in rehabilitation and medical institutions that specialize in the treatment of children with ASD.
