The framework of gentle teaching is a framework for social justice, as we regard our own place in the formation of community and begin to experience the privilege of engaging with others in moments and the processes of social change, understanding that each person's sense of existence, the gift of being and becoming, becoming human, begins with feeling safe in love.
Feeling like the world could use a bit more kindness? You're not alone. In this heartwarming episode of 'A Quest for Well-Being', Valeria Teles chats with Anthony McCrovitz, Ph.D., a seasoned psychologist and mental health counselor, about the transformative impact of gentle teaching. Anthony, who co-founded Globe-Star, an agency dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, shares his journey and the profound lessons he's learned along the way.
Anthony introduces us to the concept of gentle teaching, a philosophy rooted in the psychology of interdependence. He explains how creating a sense of companionship and community can awaken our true human potential. The idea is simple yet powerful: by fostering relationships based on unconditional love and respect, we can build a society where everyone feels valued and safe.
Through personal anecdotes and professional insights, Anthony discusses the challenges and triumphs of implementing gentle teaching in various settings, from prisons to international communities. He emphasizes that the relationship itself becomes a classroom, offering endless opportunities for growth and connection. Anthony also touches on the importance of human connection in our increasingly digital world. He highlights how gentle teaching can help bridge the gap created by technology, bringing back the warmth of human touch and genuine interaction.

Join Valeria and Anthony as they explore how gentle teaching can pave the way for social justice and emotional well-being.
