they can recognize their emotional triggers or activators, sense the dysregulation in their bodies and brains, and respond accordingly. This allows adults to lean into curiosity when encountering a dysregulated child, empowering them to respond with compassion and connection over control, escalation, and compliance.

"Accessible, practical, and transformative, Body and Brain Brilliance guides educators and administrators to provide the regulated, positive repeated experiences students need to thrive. By showing how to keep our own nervous systems in mind, shift our own states, and then co-regulating with our students, Desautels provides a roadmap for how to effectively hold our students’ nervous systems in mind, even in the most challenging moments, where students are most vulnerable. If educators put this lens-shift into practice, it would revolutionize the kinds of experiences kids and teachers have every day."
