This practical book outlines the values, ideas and neuroscience behind trauma-informed restorative practice and its proven effectiveness. It clearly explains key theories relating to shame, trauma and your autonomic nervous system, and explains how to apply this knowledge in practice. Examples and stories of restorative practice feature throughout to inspire and emulate, as do practical protocols, tools and systems to develop your skills as a trauma-informed educator. Critically, it also explains the personal and professional qualities you need to nurture to truly engage in trauma-informed, restorative practice, with reflection points to aid learning and self-development. Read this book and take your first steps to creating a trauma-informed, restorative classroom - even if your school isn't doing it!   ABOUT RESTORATIVE JUSTICE ON THE RISE The world's first restorative justice podcast and public lives platform, since 2011 www.restorativejusticeontherise.org Connect with Us on Facebook The Redemption Project Discussion Series in alliance with Van Jones & REFORM/CNN Latest Enewsletter   Breaking: RJ on The Rise Selected from Global Applicant Pool to Attend Multi-Year Academy on Media's Role in Belonging.
