I will discuss the importance of promoting emotional literacy and connection to the body in primary school work, with the aim of supporting children's successI examine the effects of societal change, individualism and alienation, the well-being of children today, and how the school system can respond to this development.
Considering the theories of scholars such as Patricia Sherwood, Bessel van der Kolk and Eugene Gendlin, the emphasis is on working with body perception and internal listening as key elements of emotional intelligence and to promote healthy development.
