Understanding the Emotional Brain
Emotions have an impact on learning. They influence our ability to process information and to
accurately understand what we encounter. But how much do parents really know about
emotions? There has never been a more important time to look more closely at how emotions
impact our children. Youth are presenting with higher rates of anxiety, depression, suicidal
thoughts, and substance abuse making it difficult for them to be fully present in the learning
environment and functioning members of society. During this workshop we will explore the
emotional system, gain a better understanding of how it impacts behavior and learn effective
strategies to incorporate emotional resilience into parenting.
