Educators can turn the tide on the mental health crisis afflicting our nation's youth. Through simple classroom exercises focusing on sensational awareness, trauma-responsive educators can teach themselves and their students how to regulate their nervous systems. The experiential exercises in this workshop will not only prevent educator burnout but will also save lives. Teaching ourselves and our students resilience and how to regulate our nervous systems not only helps our own mental health and wellness but can mean the difference between life and death for populations that have suffered from intergenerational trauma born out of poverty & systemic oppression.
