Students leading deep breathing, mindfulness, guided imagery, and closing class… just as they see in the videos. 💛for their entire school. 💛

💛Yesterday, I had the honor of leading a school-wide training at a one of the schools we partner with alongside Chris Salamone, the school social worker. Together, we introduced simple, preventative tools—supported by my 5-minute videos—to strengthen co-regulation across the school community.

💛Chris and I have been doing this work side by side for over 10 years, always grounding it in trauma-informed practices and real, lived experiences from his work with students.

💛Yesterday, he shared something with the community.
He was working with a group of students who had experienced significant trauma—kids who struggled to sit still, to settle, to feel safe in their bodies.

💛One day, in the middle of a hard moment, as he tried to bring the group back together, a student said:
“Let’s do a guided imagery… like from Julie’s videos.”

💛That student then led the group through his own version.
And now… that same kind of moment echoed across an entire school.

💛A child who once struggled to regulate is now leading others.

A practice that was once offered—now owned.
A moment of support—now becoming a ripple.
