Beskrivning

Stuart Shanker’s Reframed presents a comprehensive exploration of self-regulation, grounded in cutting-edge neuroscience, to help individuals thrive and society flourish. Aimed at parents, educators, and all adults invested in individual well-being, this revised and expanded edition is presented in a reader-friendly format, with engaging vignettes that appeal to a wider audience.Employing the same proven techniques from his earlier volumes, Calm, Alert, and Learning and Self-Reg, Shanker delves into the science and principles behind the Shanker Self-Reg method, emphasizing that understanding our own brains is the key to understanding one another and rethinking black-and-white labels such as “bad,” “lazy,” and “stupid.” He argues that everyone has the capacity to self-regulate in ways that foster growth and that life trajectories can shift at any point with the right tools. For Shanker, the foundation of a just and free society begins with how we understand and nurture ourselves as well as our children.In an era marked by social challenges, Reframed not only illuminates the complexities of the modern world but also inspires hope for a better future. This essential work equips readers with the knowledge and tools to help build a more compassionate society, one mind at a time.

Recensioner i media

"In Reframed: Self-Reg for a Just Society we join Stuart Shanker on his personal journey to redefine age-old questions related to the capacity of humans to regulate their behaviour." - Stephen W. Porges, PhD, Distinguished University Scientist, Indiana University, Professor of Psychiatry, University of North Carolina, and originator of the Polyvagal Theory"What if there existed a book with a masterful integration of contemporary neuroscience, research on human development, educational theory, and philosophical thought? What if this knowledge was reinterpreted from the perspective of stories about children and what fosters or holds back their developmental potential? And what if the journey led to the conclusion that it is possible to create a genuinely just society? That book is in our hands now, and it is up to us as a society to make the choice to follow its wisdom." - Alan Fogel, Professor of Psychology Emeritus University of Utah and author of Body Sense: The Science and Practice of Embodied Self-Awareness (W. W. Norton, 2013)"This is a beautiful book, brimming with hope. Through Self-Reg principles and vivid real-life examples, Shanker explains what a Blue Brain/Red Brain balance is and how parents, educators, and coaches can help young children and teens achieve it." - Barbara J. King, Department of Anthropology, College of William & Mary, Author of How Animals Grieve
