Heal Yourself, Heal Your Classroom: Self-Care Practices for Reducing Stress and Building Resilience

Do you feel stressed and overwhelmed with all you have to accomplish these days? You are not alone. The good news is that current brain research shows that educators who prioritize self-care and self-compassion in their lives actually have better results with their students both behaviorally and academically. (There’s good reason why flight attendants ask adults to put the oxygen mask on themselves first!)  In this workshop, you will learn about this research and be inspired to develop healing tools you can build into to your daily life – small moments to rest and renew.  Learn mindfulness practices, relaxation techniques and ways to be more self-compassionate.   You will also learn strategies for bringing these practices into your classroom. Heal not only your self – but your students, too.  It's what the world needs now!
