This book, "Proceedings of the 2nd International Neurosequential Model Symposium," presents the latest research and practical applications of the NSM, offering professionals in these fields invaluable insights into how to nurture healthy brain development and support individuals who have experienced trauma.

Chapter 1: The Neurobiology of Resilience

In this chapter, Dr. Bruce Perry, one of the pioneers of the NSM, explores the neurobiological basis of resilience. He discusses the impact of early adversity on brain development and identifies the key factors that contribute to resilience, such as supportive relationships, positive experiences, and a sense of purpose.

Chapter 2: Trauma-Informed Education

Dr. Stephen Porges, another leading expert in the field of neurobiology, presents the Polyvagal Theory in this chapter. He explains how the nervous system regulates social engagement and emotional regulation, and how this theory can inform trauma-informed educational practices that foster safety, connection, and learning.

Chapter 3: Promoting Social-Emotional Learning

This chapter focuses on the importance of social-emotional learning (SEL) for healthy brain development and success in life. Experts discuss evidence-based SEL programs and practices that can be implemented in schools, homes, and communities to promote children's emotional intelligence and well-being.
