Episode 3: Season 3: As we gain a fuller understanding of what stress and overwhelm do to people, it has enormous relevance for classrooms. In this episode, Emily Daniels of The Regulated Classroom shares how she helps teachers create classroom environments where everyone feels a sense of felt safety. Emily has trained thousands of teachers and administrators in this framework, translating scientific research of trauma and resilience into practice. Participants say “This is the most hopeful thing I’ve done in education in 30 years.” When the whole group’s nervous systems are “regulated,” this creates a more fruitful environment for learning. The approach is a solution to educator burnout and overwhelm.
