2019.10.21 Relaxed learning

The Inner Game theory of relaxed performance demonstrates that the highest potential performance is often achieved by allowing the self freedom to fail, thereby heightening the ability to succeed when pressure of performance is lessened and feedback on performance becomes holistic and self regulating. This idea is akin to the Zen mind where the focus on nothingness allows comprehension of reality in ways that are closed to the mind which seeks answers in panic. Body work in EMDR distracts and relaxes the mind, allowing the mind to view trauma objectively and without panic; these paradigms are found in the pedagogical skill of demonstration 'in the moment' for acquisition of the taught skill.

"Dysregulation »»» Co-Regulation »»» Self-Regulation
"There is a process in which the brain learns and develops the ability to self-regulate. For those with sensory differences, this process can be so much more difficult, and the amount of time spent dysregulated is much more than the neuro-typical brain. We are taught to help a child self-regulate by giving them the sensory tools they may need, and to do so independently. This is strongly recommended and very essential, BUT sometimes the most important step is missed. The important step of co-regulation." From: https://asensorylife.com/helpful-handouts.html
