Restorative Storytelling Book One: Authentic Presence

Authentic presence is the first line of any communication. Before we speak, our listener can feel our presence. Children are especially sensitive to this, so learning how to become conscious of your presence is the #1 communication tool for teachers and change-makers.

Restorative Storytelling Book Two: Intentional Gesture

Intentional Gesture is the second tool of Restorative Storytelling in which the storyteller become aware of their authentic body language, and learns to make adjustments as needed. Most communication is visual, so it makes sense to become intentional with our gestures.

Restorative Storytelling Book Three: Coherent Container

Coherent Container is the third tool of Restorative Storytelling and the framing of the storytelling process. Creating a story container clarifies the rules of the story (who, when, where, and how long) and helps the storyteller become more effective, and the listener more engaged.

Restorative Storytelling Book Four: Directional Vocality

Directional Vocality is the fourth tool of Restorative Storytelling and is the primary way in which a storyteller transforms a listener. Four different directions brings four different results: inspiration, connection, motivation, and soothing calm.
