Repost from our sister institute, Synergetic Education Institute 💗 When we intentionally offer regulation strategies that match where the energy is showing up, it’s much more likely to be effective.
For example, if a student is hyperaroused and the energy moves to their hands they might start tapping a pencil on their desk. If this makes noise it can be very distracting in a classroom. This behavior offers a clue that the student needs alternatives to address the energy in their hands.
While taking a breath or rolling tight shoulders might be great regulatory strategies, neither directly addresses the energy in the student’s hands. Rubbing or stretching your hands or doing compressions or flexing your fingers are all examples of options that address energy showing up in our hands, that don’t distract others. 💕
