🎙️ Teachers spend so much time taking care of everyone else. But who’s taking care of them?

Lisa Danahy recently joined Twinkl Talks: EYFS to talk about something we don’t talk about nearly enough: educator burnout.

From the pressures teachers are facing to the small things that can actually help, Lisa shares her perspective on what it means to support the people who show up for children every day.

If you’re a teacher, school leader, caregiver, or work with children in any capacity, give this one a listen.

Secure attachment provides nervous system stability, regulating physiology, and allowing space for quiet confidence to naturally grow, rooted in oneself…present, warm, curious, and connected.

We've been having these conversations since 2016... and we're not done yet.

Jean McDonald and Lisa Danahy have spent the last decade talking about what it means to create calm in our schools, our homes, and ourselves. Every conversation has been a little different, but the heart of it has always been the same: connection, curiosity, and learning from one another.

We're excited to be back together for another Create Calm Community Chat, and we'd love for you to join us.

📅 Tuesday, August 18
🕔 5:00 PM ET
💻 Live on Zoom

Whether you've joined us before or this is your first Community Chat, come be part of the conversation. Bring your questions, your experiences, or just listen in.

We can't wait to see you there.

Movement changes more than our bodies—it changes how we experience the moment.



What a joy it was to see Create Calm Founder & CEO, Lisa Danahy , bring a little breathing, movement, laughter, and connection to Good Morning Washington while sharing Create Calm Family Yoga at National Gallery of Art



Proof that you don't need a yoga mat to practice mindfulness...just a willingness to join in.



(And yes...they really did end the show that day with "Namaste." 😊)

Just because you once hiked a mountain doesn’t make you a Sherpa.
Just because you like to give advice doesn’t make you a therapist.
Just because you breathe doesn’t make you a breathwork coach.
Just because you meditate doesn’t make you a qualified experience guide.

Bringing to light the safety standards is crucial in the work we do. Every day we ask our clients to be vulnerable, courageous, and curious…we better darn well adhere to the most rigorous codes of ethics and scope of practice.

Radiant Child and our founder as well as many of our instructors are certified by IAYT. For more on what those standards look like, go to IAYT.org.

It’s back!

Once a year, we open registration for one of Radiant Child Yoga's cornerstone trainings, and today is the day.

Therapeutic Yoga for Self-Regulation & Neurodevelopment has been thoughtfully updated in collaboration with my friend and colleague, Sarah Gigante, an exceptional pediatric physical therapist and yoga therapist.

If you work with children, this is one of the trainings I recommend most. Whether you're an educator, therapist, caregiver, or healthcare professional, you'll leave with practical, evidence-informed strategies you can use right away to support regulation, connection, and healthy development.

💙 Practical
🌿 Evidence-informed
🧠 Grounded in developmental science
🤸 Movement-based

I'd love to learn with you.
