MoveON: Transforming the Effects of Anger and Anxiety
MoveON: Transforming the Effects of Anger and Anxiety
Educators and advocates experience different types of stress in several scenarios. Their passion for the work can drive a ‘good stress’ reaction; however, several negative factors cause anger and/or anxiety roadblocks, lack of outcome-control and other negative factors cause anger &/or anxiety which works against the positive gains. Understanding the neurochemistry of stress gives you new insight into your behaviour and that of the people you serve. You will learn about why some techniques work and why they might not be working enough. You will leave with a concrete plan to MoveON.
Karen's mission is to create an environment where differences are expected rather than the exception. Her expertise in the neurobiology of behaviour comes from 30+ years of learning as a mom and a specialist in special education. She
has facilitated workshops for international conferences and several universities and teacher conferences. |
