The Triggered Brain 

Trauma comes in many shapes and sizes and often manifests itself as "difficult behaviors" in students. Working with students who are easily triggered can be challenging. In this lighthearted and informative workshop, participants will have hands on opportunities to gain skills and insights into students they work with (and themselves), while identifying strategies to understand the triggered brain and to minimize triggered moments. This session will discuss brain states, self-regulation, and strategies to encourage adult self-awareness and positive student behavior.
