Shaping minds, connections and creativity through play, playfulness and playful learning for all
Welcome to The Playful Lens – the podcast where curiosity, creativity and coffee fuel big conversations about learning, wellbeing and play.
Hosted by Gillian @the_glitter_and_coffee_teacher and Helena @experiential.wellbeing
In this episode we are joined by assistant professor, educator & author Dr. Lori Desautels. She speaks to us about what happens inside our nervous systems when we play. Play is deep learning – a vital way our brains grow, process and connect. If you’re guilty of using your imagination for worry instead of wonder then we think you are really going to enjoy this episode.
Lori’s inspiring books ‘Connections Over Compliance’, ‘Intentional Neuroplasticity’, ‘How May I Serve You’ and ‘Body & Brain Brilliance’ are a must read for all educators.
