Trauma Awareness and Restorative Steps to Brain Regulation

RJ and Student Behavior Institute:

Our capacity to regulate our behaviors, deal with conflicts, and be ready to learn depends on whether our nervous systems are functioning in survival or safe mode. The capacity to regulate (calm) our nervous system is greatly impacted by the layers of trauma that mark us and how we are or are not supported through their resolution and healing. This interactive workshop will offer educators a space to reflect, share and integrate their experiences, and provide resources to help them understand how the latest brain-science and interpersonal neurobiology research can help them grow new trauma-informed lenses on behaviors and conflicts. Participants will come away with a greater capacity to create emotionally safe, supportive, and healing connections and learning environments – and a restorative pathway to help self and others regulate their nervous system.
