Bad Behavior… or Dysregulation?

Sometimes “acting out” is really the body and brain trying to cope.

🔹 Crying, yelling, or withdrawing ≠ defiance
🔹 Fidgeting or avoiding tasks = stress signals
🔹 Disrespect? Maybe a call for help or connection

💡 Pause. Breathe. Move. Respond with curiosity.

Behavior is communication. Listening changes everything.

Student Spotlight
Meet one of our inspiring students: after stepping away from the Frederick County Public School system, she joined Each 1 Teach 1, Inc. and has since rejoined school. She practices continues her practice at home—showing how mindfulness and SEL can stay with you anywhere.

📚 Literacy & SEL: Our Partnership with Curious Iguana
Curious Iguana has been pivotal in supporting the literacy portion of social-emotional learning. Their carefully curated books help children explore emotions, relationships, and resilience in a fun, engaging way.

💡 Quick Tip for Families
Try a “mindful moment” at home: take three slow breaths together, notice how your body feels, and share one thing you’re grateful for today. Small practices like this help build awareness, calm, and connection.

The Science That Guides Our Work 🧠

Have you experienced…

1. Emotional neglect or feeling unseen as a child?

2. A parent or caregiver struggling with mental health or substance use?

3. Separation, divorce, or loss in your family?

4. Witnessing conflict or violence at home?

Research shows that experiencing 3–4 types of these early life challenges can be linked with higher health risks and a shorter lifespan later in life. ([CDC, 2023](https://www.cdc.gov/vitalsigns/aces/index.html))

Here’s the hopeful truth:

Your past doesn’t define you.
Resilience can grow at any age

Safe relationships, mindful practices, and caring support **can change the trajectory

Understanding ACEs helps us create environments where children and families thrive

A Simple Reminder

- Discovery is a win, no matter the timing, every moment is an opportunity to learn and grow

- Letting go of “if only” — focus on moving forward, not dwelling in the past

- Living fully in the present — engage with curiosity and awareness in every action

- Optimism for tomorrow — planting seeds today for a brighter future

- Don’t fall for “hindsight is 20/20” — progress is about effort, not perfection

- A simple reminder — every step forward matters

🧩 Did You Know?
Animals aren’t just cute—they’re powerful SEL teachers!

Self-Awareness: Notice how a horse or dog reacts to your energy—it mirrors your emotions.

Self-Management: Staying calm to connect with an animal teaches real-time emotional regulation.

Relationship Skills: Caring for an animal grows empathy, patience, and trust.

At Each 1 Teach 1, Inc., we use animals + mindful movement + SEL to help youth and adults build confidence, resilience, and emotional intelligence. 💛

✨ Curious to see SEL in action? Join us for our youth mindfulness camps or SEL-focused yoga with horses!

📊 Why SEL Matters NOW 🌱

Kids today face more stress, anxiety, and pressure than ever. Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) gives them tools to thrive—and the research proves it:

✨ Better Grades: SEL students score 11 percentile points higher academically

🤝 Stronger Relationships: Less conflict, more kindness and cooperation

🏫 Healthier Schools: Better attendance, safer spaces, more positive vibes

💪 Life Skills for the Future: Emotional regulation, empathy, and resilience

Since 2020, Each 1 Teach 1, Inc has worked with over 500 youth, helping them grow academically, socially, and emotionally through mindfulness, SEL, and thoughtful practices.

SEL isn’t just “nice to have”—it’s life-changing, research-backed, and community-building.

Which SEL skill do you think kids need most right now? 💬

Big feelings happen.
They’re not bad — they’re information.

When emotions feel overwhelming, one simple place to start is naming the feeling and slowing the breath.
This helps the brain and body reconnect, so reactions don’t take over.

Try this:
Name the feeling.
Take 3 slow breaths.

This is why we do what we do — to support youth with tools for regulation, connection, and emotional safety, so learning and relationships can grow.
