All day, every day we all fluctuate within a range of organization, attention, calm, excitement and various emotions. We have learned ways to regulate our emotional responses, attention and organization based on the expectations of the environment as well as expectations and reactions of others. With extensive training in the DIR framework we understand emotional regulation and co-regulation (changing your arousal state based on other’s responses and inputs) and how to infuse it into everything we do.
Great Kids Place also offers the ZONES of Regulation curriculum to enhance our children’s ability to explore various emotional and attentional states in an appropriate and meaningful way.
