Self Care for Teachers
by Dr. Jane Nelsen and Dr. Kelly Gfroerer
Taking care of yourself is the best gift you can give your students.
- Make a list of the things you like to do that feed your heart, your body, your mind, and your soul.
- Get out your calendar and make time for yourself EVERY day.
- Give up all guilt about taking time for yourself, or for taking time to be with people who boost your energy and your joy.
- Keep a gratitude journal.
- Ask for help when you need it. After all, you aren’t asking for anything you would not be happy to give. Allow others the blessing of giving to you.
- Laugh and learn from your mistakes— another great gift to yourself and others.
