Teacher Tips: How to Take Breaks & Connect Even if Your Staff Lounge is Super Negative

Balance Your Teacher Life: Personal Growth Tips, Habits & Life Coaching to Empower Educators to Avoid Burnout

A key way to avoid burning out is to take time during the teaching day to rest, recharge, and connect with other adults. How often do teachers genuinely take a break? And what can you do if your common break area is where all the complainers congregate?
In this episode, I discuss the science, the strategies, and the absolute necessity of taking breaks as a teacher. Topics covered include:

• Why taking breaks is essential to your mental health and your productivity.
• Fun solutions like 'Friendship Fridays' and a 'Positivity Parking Lot'
• How to set boundaries that foster connections among colleagues and transform the staff room into a place of positivity and support
• A FREE resource to help with either a personal or school-wide wellness challenge

RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:
