Two-thirds of children in Scotland have experienced trauma before the age of eight. How do we introduce trauma-informed practice into everything we do? chscotland.gov.uk/about-us/lates…📰
You don’t need to be a therapist - but you can be part of a therapeutic web of relationships in the child’s life. We shouldn’t underestimate the power of being someone who is accepting, empathetic, patient, kind, reliable, calm, curious, and fun.

There are many things that children can do at #school to overcome negative emotions so that they can feel happier and more focused. 😀 WholeHearted School Counseling has created this infographic that includes 50 self-regulation tools that children can use at school. 💭✨

Question for my Autistic friends. I really hate the phrase "challenging behaviour" Actually I also dislike the word "behaviour" too 😔 I'm fed up with kids being blamed for their "behaviour" due to their neurological difference. What word/phrase would you prefer instead? ❤️
@MorrisonBeth We started using "distress" back in 2010. It fundamentally changed hearts and minds. If you understand that a child's behaviour is driven by distress, as a human being, your first instinct is to offer comfort. @suzannezeedyk
@MorrisonBeth Distress or stress. Every human knows what that feels like. The words have been used to carry meaning beyond what would be applied to our reactions under similar circumstances. That's not humane or appropriate. It's a way of dividing people into them and us, instead of all of us.
Two-thirds of children in Scotland have experienced trauma before the age of eight. How do we introduce trauma-informed practice into everything we do? chscotland.gov.uk/about-us/lates…📰
“I liked the concept of ‘warm boundaries’, which #DaringVentures introduced. There is currently a debate in Scottish Educ about ‘lack of consequences’. I will be using t language of ‘warm boundaries’ going forward. Boundaries don’t hv to be punishment!” @MrMcEnaney @TIGERSEYAcad
Boundaries which are supportive rather than punitive are less likely to induce shame. It’s the two hands which Kim Golding refers to - structure, limits, and supervision on one hand and nurturing, PACEful connections on the other.

Love the learning cafe @glebeps it’s great to see James thrive in such a nurturing environment 🥰 and for him to see his parents and teacher working in partnership 🤩 Bonus: Mr Simpson kindly shares all his fabulous ideas with me to improve my own practice! Thank you 😊
You don’t need to be a therapist - but you can be part of a therapeutic web of relationships in the child’s life. We shouldn’t underestimate the power of being someone who is accepting, empathetic, patient, kind, reliable, calm, curious, and fun.
Work with children? I'm not asking you to be a surgeon. 🧑⚕️🩺 I'm asking you to be a first-aider. ⛑️ It's the same with understanding trauma. You don't need to be a qualified social worker or clinical psychologist to help those who need it.
Today I have been thinking about our Building on Positive Relationships approach (BPR) based on the principles of NVR. Self-care it is important. Taking time and look after our own wellbeing. What do you do to S.P.I.C.E up your life?#northayrshirebuildingonpositiverelationships
