This session will address how our nervous systems drive our feelings, thoughts and behaviors in our classrooms and schools. All chronic behavioral challenges are nervous system challenges and require “felt safety” inside our classrooms and schools. When we only observe behaviors, we look at the indicators and do not cultivate sustainable changes meeting our children and youth in their autonomic state. In this session, educators, parents and all those who work with children and youth will be given the practices and tools to assist our children, youth, and ourselves in recognizing how dysregulation feels in our bodies and brains and the resources to deeply understand how we move through autonomic states when we feel triggered and our bodies prepare to protect and defend when there is no present moment danger or threat.
