We are very proud of Dr Rachel Gilgoff, our Chief Medical Officer in the US, on this report and her work with Dr Nadine Burke Harris. Highly recommended reading for all of those working with children and adults who have had ACEs and toxic stress.

Covid may have stopped the team getting together as much as we usually do, but it hasn't stopped some of the #Strongerbrains team launching our end of 2020 strategic planning. Lots of exciting things happening in 2021 so watch this space...
Hayley is working at one of our schools today on 'World Kindness Day' activities. After writing kind messages, we will reflect on how our brains and bodies feel when we do something kind for someone. How do you feel when you do an act of kindness? #worldkindnessday2020
So excited to have been a part of the Bright Spots event today as a presenter! Such a great experience #TheConnectionSVA#SVATLG Thank you so much for having Stronger Brains there today!
A thank you from Hayley on behalf of @StrongerBrains to all school staff out there working extra hard to keep children learning remotely. This is a short #mindfulness practice for those of you feeling stressed or can't sleep. Stay safe everyone! https://t.co/ePoCDqNEDm
If any #qld teachers or teacher aides have 10 minutes to help Hayley with her #mastersresearch by completing a quick survey about their #mindfulness experience in primary schools please send her a message 🙏
Thanks again to @TheQCT and @QLDStateSchools teachers and teacher aides that have messaged me about helping me with my masters research! I still desperately need about 20 more! Please share if you know any #qldteachers who may have time for a 10 min survey at this crazy time!!
@emsplendid @NetflixUK @Jerry_K2TR @Jerry_K2TR really pulled on my heart strings I was so emotional watching him! What a rock star and amazing role model on how a positive mindset in any situation can help. I binged watched this as soon as it was out! Would be my dream to have him on our team helping others!
We completely agree! It's staggering how many people still do not know about #ACEs. It's one of the biggest penny dropping moments that teachers have in our PD training about trauma, long term implications and how Neuroplasticity can help!
Our Engine Room Brain Ambassadors are on a mission to help all children at @sevensisterssch develop a #growthmindset. This week they taught 3L about the brain's amazing ability to rewire itself by trying challenging things. @StrongerBrains@Evolve_Impact
Do you have your January pupil free days planned yet? Stronger Brains has limited availability to deliver workshops in 2020 #brisbane#Queensland#qct#nsw#teacherpd

We had fun in the Engine Room building a brain with pipe cleaners. We started by making individual neurons then wired all of them together. The more connections we made, the 'stronger' our brain became. #growthmindset @sevensisterssch @StrongerBrains@Evolve_Impact@pertslab
Our new Engine Room at @sevensisterssch. We’ve gone for a rainforest theme this year, with ‘mindfulness’ pond in the middle. The children had a fantastic 1st day, learning about their brains’ amazing neuroplasticity. #education#health#cognition@StrongerBrains@Evolve_Impact
Karen from our Brisbane team spent the weekend learning about creativity, trauma informed care, and school-based engagement techniques...
