2 The Whole Brain Approach for Clinicians St. George, UT September 2015

3 Experience Shapes the Brain!!Brain is shaped by: genes & experience!!neurons fire together! wire together!!*where attention goes.....!!you are brain architects.

4 !! Lise Elliot What s Going on in There

5 Pruning and Windows of Opportunity!!Blossoming (overproduction)!!use IT OR LOSE IT!!Pruning (30,000/sec.)

6 Integrating Left and Right

7 2 sides of the brain 2 types of attention Left Hemisphere Right Hemisphere!! Logic!! Linear!! Linguistic!! Literal!! Senses Emotion!! Random!! Non-verbal!! Whole picture-context

8

9 Integration!!Separate things! working together as a functional whole. "!DIFFERENTIATED "!(Separate distinct properties) "!LINKED "!(Whole working together as a coordinated team)

10 Integration Flexible Adaptive Coherent Energized Stable The Whole- Brain Child

11 Connect with emotions before redirecting behavior Connect and Redirect CONNECT with the right: nonverbal comfort!touch!tone of voice!facial expressions!empathy!pausing Then REDIRECT with the left:!solutions!words!planning!logical explanations!boundaries

12 Building the Staircase of the Mind: Integrating the Upstairs and Downstairs Brain

13 Middle Prefrontal Cortex! Regulates body (autonomic nervous system)!! Regulates emotions!! Sound decision making!! Impulse control!! Empathy!! Flexibility!! Personal Insight!! Overcoming fear!! Executive function!! Intuition!! Morality So what does this have to do with behavior?

14 STRUGGLES!OPPORTUNITIES TOTALLY SHIFT OUR LENS: Behavior is seen as something to extinguish. But it s COMMUNICATION. And, it leads to discipline.

15 What is Discipline? THE TYPICAL APPROACH= How do I stop this? WHAT CONSEQUENCE DO I GIVE?

16 What is Discipline? Discipline = Teaching (skill-building)

17 SO... What is your theory?!chase THE WHY!Peel back the layers!curiosity!!!!and a new way to understand:

18 Nervous System Arousal A R O U S A L Hyper-arousal (defense: mobilization) Hypo-arousal (defense: immobilization) Inspired by Porges, Ogden, Siegel, Kuypers, Williams&Shellenberger, and Lillas&Turnbull

19 What about a kid with lots of red and blue? But... what produces the reactivity?!! What is causing the arousal? "! Temperament "! Trauma "! Sensory "! Learning discrepancy "! Environmental discrepancy "! Caregivers who amplify distress/arousal "! Organic disorder "! Etc.?

20 BE DETECTIVES.!! Turn FRUSTRATION into FASCINATION! BARBARA AVILA, M.S.

21 Replace OUR assumptions with curiosity!! The purpose behind behavior?!! Chase the why?!! Reinterpret problem behavior as an adaptation "! Oppositional Defiant Disorder!!! What is the meaning of the behavior?

22 Common Discipline Practices through a new lens!! Behavioral systems!! Punishment!! Threatening!! Corporal punishment!! Yelling/ NO!!! Fear-based control!! What else? WHAT IF IT S A CAN T...

23 discipline approaches Is what we or parents are doing counter-productive? Consider connection and skill-building?

24 Engage, Don t Enrage... So relationship and soothing is key Communicating no threat

25 Reactive vs. Receptive!!Try getting below eye-level.!! Really.!! One of our most important discipline/behavior/ brain-changing tools is connection/relationship.

26 Why Connect and Redirect?!! It moves people from reactive!receptive 2 GOALS OF DISCIPLINE!! It works in the moment "!Gets them back into green zone!! It works in the long run "!Widens their green zone "!IT PROMOTES INTEGRATION

27 And when we connect...!! We also develop the Upstairs brain and build skills!

28 3 things you might not think of to build skills!! TIMING!!! Pushin and Cushion!! The role of guilt!! Mindsight tools

29 They might need a better strategy

30 Keeping the Relational Brain in Mind

31 What is Attachment?!! Attachment is the innate drive (for survival) to be near our attachment figure(s) particularly during times of stress.!! SAFE!! SECURE!! SEEN!! SOOTHED "!CONNECTED AND PROTECTED. "!REPEATED, PREDICTABLE, SENSITIVE CARE!

32 Research of HOPE!! IT S NEVER TOO LATE TO CREATE POSITIVE CHANGE IN A CHILD!! Attachment is not fixed: we know brain is influenced by experience these parts are still open to change by experience.!! IT ONLY TAKES ONE!!!!

33 What you do matters. One last point to consider: Neuroplasticity Experience changes the brain (Hope for kids, and for ourselves.)

34 Books to Read!! No-Drama Discipline Siegel and Bryson!! Mindsight, or The Developing Mind by Siegel!! The Brain that Changes Itself by Norman Doidge!! Lost at School or The Explosive Child by Greene!! Mindset by Dweck!! Raising Happiness by Carter!! The Mindful Child by Susan Kaiser-Greenland!! How to Raise an Emotionally Intelligent Child by Gottman!! or innerkids.com!! The Neuroscience of Education by Cozolino

35 Attachment Resources!! Parenting from the Inside Out, by Siegel & Hartzell!! Brain-Based Parenting by Hughes and Baylin!! The Whole-Brain Child, by Siegel and Bryson!! Brainstorm, by Siegel!! You Are My World, by Amy Hatkoff!!
