Children don’t feel our intentions through our words...words are not the direct pathway to the emotional brain!!

When students feel safe and supported, we can learn and grow beside them!!!

We created the Body and Brain Brilliance manual and modules to serve as a touchpoint of active hope to help steady our bodies and brains as we navigate this really hard work!!!

Body and Brain Brilliance is not a program with a script!
This manual and accompanying modules provide a relational platform for modeling connections and practices that ease and soothe the nervous system throughout the day. We are our students’ environments!!

I’m humbled by educators worldwide using our work to shift how they view discipline. One Cohort 8 grad student shared it feels like traversing a mountain…slow, uncertain, but even small shifts ripple!

It’s hard to believe it’s been just over a year since @teachergoals.bsky.social helped bring the Body & Brain Brilliance Manual to life! Grateful for Robert Beltz, Dustin Springer, Crystal Williams & Angie Zara for pouring so much heart into this work!!!!

Short, intentional moments of connection calm the brain + support learning. Try weaving 3 sets of 3 mins into your day!!!

Co-regulation is our biological imperative.
We need the presence of others to feel safe, and it’s what makes self-regulation possible!!

Just like adults, students need different ways to reset! Downtime steadies the nervous system. 🧡

In Indiana, the return to grading system adds MORE pressure for educators and families.

Taking just a few minutes for a focused attention practice, a small ritual, or a check-in with nervous systems makes learning more sustainable!

That’s the kind of learning lawmakers cannot legislate away!!!!!

Bellwork, morning meeting…whatever we call those first few minutes, they really matter. I recently shared how I love asking students, “What did you bring from the pharmacy this morning?” (You’ll see exactly what I mean after watching the video!)

What if one question could reframe conflict and re-ignite compassion?

“How May I Serve You?”

When our focus is deliberate, intentional, and practiced, it shifts how we see students! It shifts how we interact with one another, and how we speak to ourselves with compassion!
