Teacher, Take Care (eBook, ePUB)

A Guide to Well-Being and Workplace Wellness for Educators
Redaktion: Lawson, Jennifer E.

Produktbeschreibung

Teaching can be a highly satisfying profession, but it can also be overwhelming. Stress management. Self-care. Mental well-being. Mindfulness. These words have become all too familiar, but what do they actually mean for you? And how can they help without adding to your to-do list?

All teachers have different experiences and different needs. Through stories by diverse educators, this professional resource invites you to try different wellness strategies, explore varying perspectives, and consider new ideas of what it means to "be well."

Grounded in servant leadership and a holistic model, each chapter connects to Indigenous perspectives of wellness through remarks from Elder Stanley Kipling and Knowledge Keeper Richelle North Star Scott.

Autorenporträt

Cher Brasok is the founder of Connect to your Calm. When stress destroyed her health, Cher’s recovery was dependent on learning how to better cope. Her path back to health included studying and putting into practice what she learned from experts in positive psychology, Western medicine, Eastern medicine, naturopathic medicine, and mindfulness. Now that she is a successful entrepreneur, stress still happens, but she deals with it differently. Cher is on a mission to share what she knows about wellness and coping with stress, all in the spirit of helping people develop healthy habits for their physical and emotional well-being.
