Reacting to behaviour: To connect or protect? - Amy Chavez

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This week on the podcast my guest, Amy Chavez, and I have a fascinating conversation about our central nervous system and how it relates to difficult behaviour. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Amy explains that our nervous system seeks to do only two things. Connect or protect. That’s it. End of story. No other options. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Which begs the question, do we want people with disabilities to connect with us or feel they need to protect themselves from us. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Which then leads us to examine how we try to support people who are labelled as having difficult behaviours to stop behaving in distressing ways and how we respond when a situation arises. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This episode is a must listen if you have ever encountered someone whose behaviour is difficult to cope with or if you have ever reacted in a way that didn’t feel good. I’m definitely in that camp. Are you? </span></p>

The Values of Inclusion require a stretch! With Heather Simmons

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Heather’s Values Of Inclusion are a pattern interrupt that challenge us to stretch and deepen our understanding of what inclusion really means and what it calls on each of us to believe and live out if we want inclusion to exist in our communities. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If you aren’t sure you buy into inclusion for all people then this episode will be thought provoking. If you are sure you</span> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">do</span> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">buy into inclusion for all people then this episode will help you reflect and maybe even identify where you need to stretch. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Get to the full shownotes <a href="https://goodthingsinlife.org/145" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">here</a>.</span></p>
