What participants have shared...

"I've gained awareness of my own reactions to kids’ behavior and other situations…"

"I've begun reflecting on daily element change, and now understand that a child’s behavior is not about me."

"I've learned about Nervous system symptoms and regulation and how to focus on my own regulation."

On-line video series created when schools shut down in 2019. The purpose of these was to support educators in regulating themselves as they faced the overnight shift to virtual education for themselves, their students and their own families. This is an introductory class, as it assumes that educators already had established classrooms that transitioned to on-line learning.
