Why "Taming the Tiger"?
This innovative workshop addresses a critical gap in our school systems: the need for proactive strategies to manage emotional and behavioral dysregulation. While schools routinely prepare for physical emergencies like fires, they often lack resources for the emotional 'fires' that occur daily. "Taming the Tiger" aims to change this by offering educators a comprehensive understanding of nervous system regulation and practical tools to help both staff and students.
Workshop Takeaways
Attendees will gain:
Insight into the roles of the amygdala/limbic system, hippocampus, and prefrontal cortex in emotion regulation.
Techniques to apply this psychoeducational tool with students, parents, and staff.
Strategies to create a more regulated and supportive environment in classrooms, schools, and districts.
