Chapter 5 in Fostering Resilient Learners - Play Peekaboo..lets all buy stuffed animals... if you are asking "what in the world is she talking about? " --- you have not read Chapter 5.
Kristen makes the point that although we and many of our students do NOT have control over the adversities that affect our lives and our physiologies, we DO possess an element of control over how we RESPOND to our circumstances. One method of harnessing that control is through our breathing. Deep breathing helps us stay in our upstairs brain.
If you think back to Shawn Achor- Happy Secret to better work /building positive mindset-- one of the five things to do was to mediate- focusing on your breathing:)
The power of breathing--- a resource EVERYONE can tap into at ANYTIME:)

Chapter 3 in Fostering Resilient Learners is so reflective of Sem Yeto.
Kristen Souers, author of Fostering Resilient Learners, states that the most frequently asked question she receives from educators is "How to navigate the perceived clash between availability and accountability? Availability in this sense refers to our emotional investment our nurturing, and encouragement, and our willingness to engage, empathize, and be there for our students as they maneuver through life's many stressors and disappointments) while Accountability is insisting that students meet certain standards for their learning, behavior and choices. "Where is the Sweet spot?
As you read further into Chapter 3 ... "WHAT ARE YOUR CEMENT SHOES?"- we will discuss further in the Staff meeting:)
