Book Study Series: “What Happened To You” pt. 3

Today is the third, and last, episode with Lauren discussing some of, “What Happened to You: Conversations on Trauma, Resilience, and Healing” by Bruce Perry and Oprah Winfrey. Today Lauren highlights some passages she found interesting and insightful. She focuses on how our modern society has created a stress response in all of us and what that looks like. She talks about connecting with people who are disregulated, our distance from nature and how that is impacting our health and stress levels, understanding someone’s past but not excusing their behavior, and the impact of all the sensory stimulation on our bodies. Lauren answers this week’s listener question during the episode: How can we help manage/lessen stress for students and staff. Try-at-home tip:  Slow rideMentioned in this episode:What Happened to You?
