When pressure is high, even experienced educators struggle to access the skills they already have.
Â
Rapid Resets are brief, practical tools designed to help educators and leaders regain enough stability in the moment to respond with intention instead of reactivity. These tools are not about fixing behavior or adding more strategies. They support the adult nervous system first, because stability is what makes effective responses possible.
What are Rapid Resets?
Short, in-the-moment regulation tools.
Designed for real classrooms, meetings, and conversations.
Easy to practice, model, and coach.
Effective without requiring privacy, special equipment, or extra time.
Rapid Resets are meant to be used personally and shared appropriately with others.
How do I use Rapid Resets?
Start small.
Choose one reset and practice it when things are calm.
That’s how it becomes available when pressure rises.
You don’t need to use every tool. Consistency matters more than variety.
Who are Rapid Resets for?
-
Classroom teachers.
-
School and program leaders.
- District leaders looking for behavior solutions.
Especially those who want to:
-
stay steady under pressure.
-
respond rather than react.
-
reduce emotional carryover at the end of the day.
Thriving Educator supports schools and programs by building adult capacity first, so behavior responses are steadier, communication is clearer, and systems hold under pressure.Â
