Self-care can improve our overall well-being and our ability to be effective at our jobs. As our nation is going through changing times, it is important to come up with effective strategies to bring peace into our lives. Practicing self-care and/or mindfulness is a powerful way to take care of ourselves so that we can effectively teach and support our students.
