Description

While there are already loads of books about how to deal with stress and take care of your health, at last here’s one that takes into account a teacher’s heavy workload and busy lifestyle. The author, an experienced teacher himself, avoids the blithe simplicity of typical “self-help” books to give you factual evidence, realistic steps, and straight-talk advice you can use immediately to

• Take better care of your basic needs, such as healthy food, hydration, sleep, exercise, and emotional and spiritual refreshment.
• Cultivate positive connections with other people, in and outside of school.
• Make a positive difference through your work while keeping your role and impact on your school in perspective.
• Keep the energy and passion for your work alive, even when things don’t go well.
• Create healthy routines for your work and your life outside of school.

So instead of always shoving your personal needs into the background, here’s your chance to address them head-on and do a better job for your students by taking better care of yourself.
