Keynote Address
Connections over Compliance: Rewiring our Perceptions of Discipline
The developing brains of our children need to "feel" safe. Children who carry chronic behavioural challenges are often met with reactive and punitive practices that can potentially reactivate the developing stress response systems. This keynote presentation deeply addresses the need for co-regulatory and relational touch point practices, shifting student-focused behaviour management protocols to adult-regulated brain and body states which are brain aligned, preventive, and relational discipline protocols. This new lens for discipline benefits all students by reaching for sustainable behavioural changes through brain state awareness rather than compliance and obedience.
