Anchors:  The Symphony of Healing

Life, with all its beautiful and challenging high notes and low notes, is a journey and experience that is unique to each individual. It is filled with moments of joy, obstacles to overcome, love, sadness, and a myriad of emotions that serenade our daily lives. While we often embrace and melodically cruise through the calm, relaxing moments, it is the doubt-filled, sad, angry, and stress inducing moments we find most challenging and disruptive. It is in these times that we, as do kids and our students, need anchors to walk beside us, co-regulate with us, ground us, keep us safe, and move us continually towards resilience.
