Semester 4: Week 12

Have you ever wondered what is happening in your brain when you are in an uncomfortable, stressful situation? Well, this week’s video illustrates this exact concept through a simple explanation known as the “hand model of the brain” (Dr. Dan Siegel, 2017). You’ll also learn about a strategy that you could try when you might be feeling anxious, worried, or upset. Learning about the hand model of the brain will help you to understand how you react to stress and how others around you might also react to stress! This will help you on the way to becoming a good friend.
