If it's at all helpful, I was asked to write an article about #teacher #wellness for an #education journal edcan.ca/articles/welln… My new book 'The Bullied Brain' (I'm a teacher of 20 yrs) examines how we live in a society that mostly ignores the brain but it's key to our #health

Gave 2 hr presentation to #teachers on wellness - specifically sharing the #research on how we can reduce toxic stress' impact on our brains & bodies (nervous system) They loved it! Small leap to realize reducing stressors on students lessens teachers' burnout = trauma responsive

I often tell #sports #advocates that our #education system has similar issues They don't believe it's possible Pls read CBC article to learn how tragically true it is in #Canada esp #coaches Not sure why we're citizens who tolerate rampant #child #abuse cbc.ca/news/canada/ma…

Thanks for the shout-out Lance Scoular🧭🌐The Savvy Navigator Our world is crying out for a shift from the outdated #bullying #abuse paradigm into a science-informed framework What I call the new 'neuroparadigm' #Brain #science can help us shift our #culture #community for better #mentalhealth #Health

Sexual #assaults correlated w/ assaults on #truth , integrity, facts are typical Those who abuse individuals, finances, facts operate from a belief that they are above the law and are always victims when there are attempts to hold them accountable #gaslighting #pathologicallying

Makes perfect sense from a brain / nervous system point of view #Safety #psychologicalsafety (or neurological / physiological safety) creates conditions for #empathy #compassion #calm #community #growth #learning #reciprocity It should take priority over everything else in school

A pattern Amy Saltzman? Ole Miss Football hired D.J. Durkin - head coach of a toxic abusive program - that was exposed by the death of 19 year old athlete Jordan McNair Imagine having a history of hiring individuals who create abusive conditions It shouldn't even be legal Rosemarie Aquilina

While I don't want to minimize a single sexual assault, it concerns me that the law in Canada sees repeat - over years - sexual grooming & assault from teachers/coaches to children - as less serious Are adults in positions of trust authority & power not more at fault? More risk?

My son pointed out to me that we should just say 'toxic' Adrian ‘EcoHoops’ Sapp that there's nothing 'masculine' in hurting or putting people down and I was like yes! So true - it's not a gender issue - it's an abuse issue - it's simply toxicity from wherever a person is on the spectrum

Swearing's not the issue It's how fragile he is Always on edge of a reactive temper tantrum like a two year old Always thinking he's being 'disrespected' & he's going to 'whup someone's ass' That's childhood abuse language *Athletes* win They're talented He's a psychological mess
