Brief Program Description
The demands on teachers in the 21st century continue to increase and lead to teacher burnout. The uncertainty and chronic stress of the events since the pandemic have depleted teachers even further, leaving many feeling that their thresholds and limits are already pushed to the max. In this workshop, participants will learn about the nature and impact of chronic stress. Using mindfulness strategies, participants will also learn how to evaluate and implement their personal self-care practices and will leave with a personalized and thoughtful self-care plan along with the knowledge of their potential barriers to carrying out this plan.
