The Teacher, Be Still Podcast

When you're healthy, you can see it on the outside. Maybe it's not your body, maybe it's your personality or your skin. Or maybe it's in the way you react and interact with others. Either way, what we put out there is a direct reflection of what's on the inside. Join me as we talk about what it looks like to bear fruit.

Join me as we dig into some tips and what my non-negotiables are for this year!

Negative self-talk can be a real downer. All of us have struggled with it at some point. But there is a way to stop it and to work on the narrative that runs in your brain.

It happens to all of us thanks to social media. New and better and more awesome teacher things and classroom looks and lesson ideas than you could ever have time to sort through. With all that out there it's no wonder so many teachers find themselves comparing what they're doing to all that's out there. But is it healthy? And is it a huge distraction?

We all know the job of a teacher doesn't just include teaching. There are SO many extra side gigs that make up a day in the life. From clubs and extra cirricular to student activities and invites. The list goes on. So how do you draw the line? Where is the line?

Setting a daily boundary can be a challenge. Sometimes it takes a veteran teacher to teach you the ways. I learned a very valuable lesson from a veteran teacher and it involved her throwing a pile of my students' papers straight into the trash.

Setting boundaries is not easy. And setting boundaries around your spiritual wellness is extremely challenging. But once you make this a hard line in your day/week/year, this one boundary will make the most impact.

Starting your year off with healthy habits and healthy boundaries sets you up for a peaceful and successful school year. Join us this week as we talk about how to set healthy boundaries within your school day.
