My Pace Learning and Behavioral Health

Meet PandaWar9112, my new avatar. We are exploring the fascinating world of physiological responses tied to stress, fear, excitement, and other emotions. Our bodies have the capacity to exhibit tension when stressed or relaxation when calm. PandaWar experienced a broad spectrum of emotions linked to his physical reactions during a battle. Clients make genuine connections as we use favorite video games. This is what progress looks like.

2. Move across your body to move through your emotions.
3. Simple cross-body moves help the brain regulate and reset.💛
4. When your body crosses the midline, your brain finds balance.
