Thank you again for all of your amazing insights and strategies that I’m finding myself using daily. CASIGY Social-Emotional ACES participant

Amazing Insights and Strategies

I like ACES – how gifted students can become social and emotional ACES. I like the tools you teach to help them do that. Attendee CAGT 2016

ACES

I like how you showed that gifted kids can learn to accept and ride their waves of emotion. Attendee CAGT 2016

Ride the Waves

I like the analogy of ocean waves and emotion waves – and that there are degrees of feelings, just like different colored flags on an ocean beach. I want more time to learn about this!

Emotional waves

The 5 G’s are great. I also liked your many analogies. I want to learn more about how symptoms can be a sign to grow and develop and also how to recognize and appropriately express emotions. Attendee CAGT 2016

5 G's

I like all the tools in the CASIGY toolbox. Thanks for sharing them with us! Attendee CAGT 2016

CASIGY Toolbox

Your metaphors are a wonderful way to create and construct meaning. I love the Tune in Tool and waves as a way to monitor the level of emotions. Attendee CAGT 2016

Featured Quote

Consider beginning to honor the resistance, consider getting to know the critic. The critic holds very valuable information. The critic holds our deepest fears; resistance shows us we are on the right track. If we shift our perspective, the critic can be seen as trying to spare us the pain of change, the shame of fear. Our critic discourages us from doing things which are perceived as dangerous.

— Pat Allen
