Welcome back and Happy New Year! Hopefully, everyone is coming off a two-week hiatus in which you were able to disconnect from work and recharge with friends and family members. As educators, we are so in tune with the care of our students that it often comes at the sacrifice of our own health and wellness.
In November, we heard from Dr. PJ Caposey on the importance of being able to manage our workload, with an emphasis on being able to disconnect or remove some of the stressors that we inadvertently place on ourselves.
So are you doing your homework? Have you been more deliberate in making some time for yourself and your personal needs? If so, great! Maybe you want to share with your colleagues, post on social media, or share with your KLC. It seems cheesy, but in sharing, you may inspire others to do the same.
If you haven't been able to, why not? Do you have a critical friend that you can work with? Maybe do a time study on yourself to see how you are spending your time and see if there are areas you can shave off some unnecessary stressors. And again share!
As always, keep up the great work that is happening. You are appreciated!
