We can be so unaware of how often we are on 'auto-pilot' when it comes to our thoughts, feelings and actions. Recognising our patterns and adjusting those that don't serve us is empowering, energising and life-changing for you and others around you. #emotionalintelligence

How do you incorporate SEL into your HPE lessons?
If young people can properly identify their emotions, it gives them more options on how to respond. #EmotionalIntelligence #socialandemotionallearning #SEL

SEL can be taught in any subject! Three quick ideas... 1. HOT Cognition Lesson Start Activities 2. Emotional Check-Ins 3. Reflections
Did you know it takes approximately 6 seconds for our emotions (chemicals) to be produced, broken down and absorbed within our bodies?!

Our reactions happen in cycles - it is when we consciously intervene into these cycles that we move from reactive to responsive. #EmotionalIntelligence #eq #sel

Trust - the platform for vulnerability and growth. How do you create a safe learning environment that fosters trust?
Get curious and lean into the uncomfortable to learn, grow and adapt.
Our desire to turn away from our difficult emotions comes from a place of fear. We're afraid that we won't be able to handle it, whatever it is. When you feel a tough emotion see if you can practice not racing for the emotional exits. Instead be with it with compassion.

Be vulnerable, be curious and be kind & calm to build deeper positive relationships with your students using your EQ!

By connecting with your relationship with failure (what emotions it sparks for you) you will be able to create a learning environment where it is welcomed, encouraged and accepted as part of learning.
If a student asked you to define and explain emotions would you be able to?
Key skills - let’s teach them effectively!
Human attributes - empathy, values, emotions - are the cornerstone of organizations, mental heath, and relationships. Can we stop calling them "soft skills" already?
We can learn about ourselves through our own emotional data AND we can tap into our student’s emotions to deepen their learning 💫
