These are the “Nuggets” I've taken from the workshop:
moment of stress
self control - for students and for us, teachers
self regulation
respond rather than react
teacher wellness
deficits in social emotional development and self-regulation
mental challenges
vocalising
how to be more kind to each other
IQ versus EQ - emotional intelligence
empathy, frustration, understanding feelings - metacognition
the smallest things might set you off
resilience - how we find balance
dysregulated students
human being not human doing
fear the ability
nonjudgmental
chronic stress
stress versus anxiety
neuroplasticity
I also appreciated the speaker showing us how to control breathing and perform simple exercises that would take only a few minutes.
