It is EASY to make a referral for a student who is experiencing ongoing learning effects from an Acquired Brain injury (traumatic or non-traumatic)! BrainSTEPS offers ongoing academic support to students who have experienced ANY type or severity of brain injury -as long as the injury was acquired at some point after birth until high school graduation. This includes students with concussions.β

This Thursday we are offering a free yoga nidraΜ session in collaboration with Melissa @the.rehab.lab !!!
.
nidraΜ is a practice based on ancient anatomy that is 100% backed by modern day neuroscience. As the body begins to settle, the mind embarks on a guided journey; invited to stop and anchor its awareness while offered different imaginations and visualizations. The best part is, all you have to do is show up.
THERE IS NO WRONG WAY TO EXPERIENCE
THIS PRACTICE. Truly.
.
NidraΜ has been said to release stress, rebalance the nervous system(s) and shift negative thought patterns. And if you canβt make it. Weβll send you the recording. Come hang ππΌβ€οΈ
7pm start. EST.

We really do love @campcranium and their super cute summer swag! If you know (or have) kids with brain injuries between 6-18 and live anywhere near the PA area, consider sending them to this one-of-a-kind camp experience next summer. Weβll be making the drive down from Ontario... assuming they let us across the border! #covidornovid

I donβt have the words to describe what the mission, perseverance, beauty, and utter fight that is @hopeheals has meant for me β especially these past six months. Katherine and Jay, happy book birthday!!!!!!!! I am jealous for #sufferstrongbook to get into peopleβs hands everywhere. Thank you for teaching my family first hand that we donβt just get to live beyond our circumstances, but we get to live wildly beyond the limitations they might imply. I love you guys so so so much. Thank you for your brave message, for going before us. And a side note: Katherine, thank you for teaching Eva that you can still be gorgeous and funny and on stages everywhere, even if that sometimes means itβs from a wheelchair. Stylish and bold and βfamousβ π and funny and βa worshiperβ is all Eva ever wanted to be. And so, I point to you, K. I hold up your books and your videos and say, βlook baby, this is my friend Katherine. She used to be a model which is nice but now she gets to be pretty AND change the world. You can, too.β Xoxo, L | update: have you guys read Hope Heals? Or are planning on ordering Suffer Strong? Our whole team is excited to circle through it! Tag some friends or let us know if youβre planning to read, too! Xo, Joy
