A dramatic change results when we start to think in terms of behavior as a reflection of Self-Regulation in response to stress, arousal, and energy levels, rather than in terms of self-control and compliance.

The instant you recognize when a child’s troubling behaviors are caused by too much stress, your whole relationship is transformed #SelfReg
Carlene Powell retweeted
Once you can distinguish between misbehavior & stress behavior, you're better able to pause & reflect. Instead of being irritated you become inquisitive. Instead of disciplining you listen. Instead of reacting in a way that adds stress, you can help to find calm. That’s #SelfReg.

Assessment needs Learning. Learning Does Not Need Assessment. Most of my math learning and all of my cooking, music, sports learning has only had assessment with kind, verbal feedback. But most has just been internal
We over assess to a point that our humanness is unrecognizable

The real power of #SelfReg is recognizing and knowing what arousal state we’re in and how to release our tension
Carlene Powell retweeted
#SelfReg develops this awareness of your inner state, sometimes very slowly, so that the shift isn’t just tolerable but inherently enjoyable. The ultimate goal is to become aware of the causes of being overstressed and not just the symptoms
Carlene Powell retweeted
The better we understand self-regulation, the better we can turn challenging behaviors into active opportunities for engagement
Carlene Powell retweeted
The point of #SelfReg isn’t to label a response or a behavior as something you must resist or control. The question we always need to ask ourselves isn’t “Why can’t I control this urge?” It’s “Why am I having this urge & why now?

Once you understand the brain’s natural response to stress and practice #SelfReg, the very need to impose self-control often disappears.
