Gentle Teaching Stories:

“I aspire to be a better person, more caring and loving.”

September 28, 2023/inBlog, Employment, Gentle Teaching, Stories

Gentle Teaching has transformed me as the person I am and as the person I aspire to be by making me an overall more understanding and caring person. I bring the aspects of Gentle Teaching into every part of my life by being mindful and making sure everyone I interact with feels safe, loved and respected and accepted regardless if I’m supporting, if I am at school, or with friends and family.

“The tools of Gentle Teaching: our hands, our eyes, our words and our presence, are tools that I bring into any relationship that I have in my life.”

I does not matter if I am supporting, spending time with people I am closest to or meeting new people, I always try and be mindful of the tools of Gentle Teaching. I aspire that one day the tools of Gentle Teaching will just be second nature for me, being mindful in the way I present myself and talk to people is very important to me because it helps people feel safe and comfortable.

The more I practice Gentle Teaching in my everyday life the easier it is for me to not just use the tools in mind, but for the tools to just became part of who I am and I am loving the person I become.

“For my three amazing years being part of the Creative Options Regina team and family it has definitely changed my way of thinking for the better.”

I know that everyone is fighting their own battles regardless of how their life looks from the outside. I have developed a greater sense of unconditional love, something I thought I had an abundance of before. Since getting the honour to spend many hours a week with individuals I serve I have been able to show and have been shown in return an unconditional love I didn’t know was possible, and with this I am able to unconditionally love all those around me.

I now base my relationships on unconditional love and I know that as I grow as a person and become older and more experienced in every aspect of my life I aspire to being more loving and more unconditional.

“Gentle Teaching aspires me to be a better person, to be more caring and loving.”

Every day I create a culture of gentleness wherever I am. I aspire to better myself and better those around me. I hope to one day be successful because I am a kind and caring person and I know for a fact that I am that way today and will continue to be that way because of Gentle Teaching. And for that I am extremely grateful.

After working in different areas of healthcare, Taylor found a role at COR that felt like the right fit.

As a Health Specialist, she's able to combine her clinical knowledge with something she values just as much: building genuine connections with people. She believes that taking the time to listen and build trust can make healthcare feel more approachable and help people feel supported every step of the way.

Every year, COR's birthday is a chance to celebrate the people, relationships, and moments that make our family so special.

To help celebrate, we asked the COR fam to reflect on what COR has taught them, what COR means to them, and their birthday wishes for the year ahead.

Cheers to another year of connection, belonging, and making a difference together! 🎉

“If you look at child development, the first two years of life is all about keeping the child very near to you. Close, safe, loved and nurtured. The next challenge for us is to stretch them out of that phase; to be more other-centred.” 🫂 
- Simone Schipper, Netherlands

In June, we hosted @simoneschipper from @prinsenstichting to spend some time with our teams. Thank you for your wealth of knowledge and expertise. Visit us in the COR Academy to learn more about Gentle Teaching.
