Today in our Healthy & Active Living class, we applied our learning of the 3-part Brain and Dialectics to the #COVID19 pandemic, & how #DBTSkills can help us navigate day-to-day challenges!

Thank you Fauzia Agbonhin for sharing your award-winning poetry and powerful art with us at today's School #SocialWork Symposium, Decolonizing Education: Engage, Dismantle & Change. Fauzia's #truths are required reading in #decolonizing education: https://t.co/ARtegDENlj

"In these times, we need more upstanders, not bystanders. Bystanders react. Upstanders respond." Thank you to @unlearn_com's Lakhdeep Dhaliwhal for helping us bring it all together to close out an incredible day!

On decolonizing education in Ontario @DrAnnLopez shares, "Educators are coming to understand that the centrality of Eurocentric learning must be dislodged. How do we disrupt and build? We are beginning to build this understanding, and this is the boldness, this is the joy."

Thanks @drgtab @BLoveSoulPower @GillyParekh @DrAnnLopez @JeanAugustine07 @PatriciaCodner @charlineGrant @camillelogan @NickBertrand9 & more for sharing your wisdom & energy with 350+ participants at today's Symposium. #SocialWorkers, it's time to move from inspiration to action!

[OASW @ON_SocialWork]

Inspiring words from the Hon. @JeanAugustine07, "What you are doing as educators, social workers, community leaders, is helping students reach their *full* potential. We must be intentional in our efforts to eliminate structural biases and barriers to build an equitable system."

[Miguel Guayasamin @SocialWorkMig]

@ON_SocialWork @DavisJSW1 amazing work as a school social worker definitely started at the @DPCDSBSchools and she continued to bless those she worked with @HaltonDSB but we currently have the pleasure of calling her one of our own at the @HCDSB. Congratulations, well deserved!!

Awesome GROUP session yesterday with students on the 5-factor model of CBT. Great conversations and tonnes of practical application & reflection. #AlternativeEducation @SocialWorkMig @CycMahoney @ThomasMertonalc @HCDSB_MHWB

Imagine if all schools operated from a #TraumaInformed lens. Think of the impact that would have on #StudentSuccess & #StudentWellbeing

Great Group session today led by @SocialWorkMig on Mindfulness. Loved this video by @KevinHart4real on “returning to the breath” when our mind wanders. Great example! @Headspace

Give this a read and let’s talk about this too. #BellLetsTalk

[Alicia Elliott - AND THEN SHE FELL out now! @WordsandGuitar]

I've written extensively about my own experiences of depression and anxiety in my book, "A Mind Spread Out On The Ground." In the title essay, I compare depression to the effects of colonialism. Since it's #BellLetsTalk, I want to talk more about what I call colonial depression.
