Anyone who works with kids and families can feel the temperature rising when it comes to stress. The word anxiety seems to be everywhere we turn. Behaviors are becoming more frequent and intense. Burnout is no longer something that just affects a few. We see high rates of turnover in helping roles, and for those of us that are left, we may find ourselves thinking: how much longer can I do this?
Thriving Families, The Southwest Iowa Mental Health and Disability Services Region, and Green Hills Area Education Agency are collaborating to bring you a training series designed to give you the keys to unlock understanding of how stress can become toxic in the body, leading to stuck patterns like anxiety, behavioral disruption, and shutting down.
Session 1 will be held September 13 to give you a foundational understanding of nervous system injuries (aka accumulating stress and trauma), how they present in ourselves and others, and how we can start to heal these injuries with tools for the moment and for long term resilience.
