Self-Care for Educators
Location: TBD

Happy teachers teach better. It’s that simple. If you want to teach better, you must practice self-care. As a teacher, you have what is arguably one of the most stressful professions. Left alone, a classroom of students is inherently unstable. As the teacher, you are expected to be a constant source of stability. This is virtually impossible if you don’t take care of yourself. In my Self-Care for Educators course, you will learn about the four primary domains of personal development that require self-care. Participants will learn how applying principles of mindfulness to their teaching can create a happier classroom. Additionally, participants will learn about the science of habit creation and how to create healthy lifelong habits.
Topics to be Covered:
How taking care of yourself physically, emotionally, intellectually, and spiritually can benefit your teaching
How to create habits that last
How to apply basic mindful awareness skills to your whole day
Understanding your negative emotions & the power of positivity
The power of affirmations, intention setting, and gratitude
