Share your calm…

I had the honor of spending the past two days with a group of dedicated teachers from the Southern Tier of NYS. They spent their first days of summer in trainings. It was my pleasure to share with them about our nervous system, behaviors, and the exercises/strategies that help for the classroom (and home!). Deep breaths and share your calm 😮‍💨

I had the opportunity of presenting to WNY teachers at the Educator Wellness Institute today. If I couldn’t be out protesting today, I’m honored my time was still spent in service of promoting mental health for those working with our tiniest citizens.

Hey, that’s me! I’m looking forward to spreading the word about stress, our nervous system, and what regulates, protects, and connects us.
If you are interested in a workshop or seminar for your workplace, send me a message!

I highly recommend reading“Cherished Belonging” by Father Gregory Boyle. People are not evil. Evil implies there just isn’t anything we can do; it is what it is. People are unhealthy, broken, and scared. There are steps we can take if we approach with that viewpoint.

Happy Martin Luther King Day!
