Most passionate educators agree that while their work is fulfilling and rewarding, it can also be challenging, and the demands of students, parents, and administrators, as well as one’s own family, can be overwhelming at times. Teachers tend to give so much of their time, energy, and spirit both in and out of the classroom that they often neglect to care for themselves. Does that sound like you?
Here at ACE we believe spending time rejuvenating yourself is essential. To us, self-care isn’t selfish; it’s ethical. After all, how can you give your students, who count on you, your best when you’re not at your best? Come treat yourself with a coveted spot at Soul Purpose, ACE’s Educator Wellness Retreat. During this retreat you will develop useful self-care techniques that will sustain you throughout the school year. Among the topics covered during workshops will be mindfulness, stress reduction, nonviolent redirection, and self-healing practices. You’ll also make meaningful connections with other educators from around the state and learn how to incorporate self-care into your classroom. |
