A manual for empathic and trauma-informed teaching, offering a framework of an effective learning environment for students while also optimizing teachers' mental health. Drawing on applied educational neuroscience and Polyvagal Theory (which foregrounds the role of the vagus nerve on emotions and reactions to trauma), it explains how to approach and maintain emotional regulation, help students achieve stability, and create a supportive environment that allows space for learning.
