Don’t Let Teacher Life Consume Your Life: Teacher Self Care Strategies l Miss Rae's Room Social Emotional Learning Teaching Blog
  • Don’t let your teacher life consume your personal life!  
    • Make YOU a priority!  
    • Always put yourself on your to-do list.  You are the most important factor in student success.  If you are unhealthy (emotionally, mentally, or physically), you cannot be there for your students!
  • Choose healthy!
    • Get plenty of rest, take vitamins, exercise, and always put your health first!
  • Exercise!
    • Research has proven it a million times over - exercise helps increase energy, improve concentration, decrease stress, and prevent depression.
  • Plan to take a break!
    • Plan to take a break for 5 minutes every hour.  Turn your brain off, meditate, have a healthy snack, take a walk, and be amazed at how rejuvenated you will feel.
  • Have self care strategies to combat  stress!
    • Have at least 3 self care strategies for relieving stress that are part of your weekly routine - and then have your secret weapons!
    • Make choices in your life to eliminate stressors.
    • Identify your triggers of stress.  Find strategies to help extinguish or alleviate those triggers.  
  • Start and end on a positive note!
    • Set your tone for the day by starting off on a positive note...at home - meditate, workout, take a walk…at school - say “good morning” to staff and students, have a morning routine, sip some tea while you prep for your day...
    • End your day on a positive note...at home - say what you are thankful for today, say a prayer, read a book… at school - have an end of the day routine, prepare for the next day, say what you are thankful for, walk out the door with nothing to bring home...
