Educators Burnout Prevention and Resilience Building using HeartMath Tools
I left the classroom after 20 years teaching high school and college students.
I loved teaching and I loved my students, but I burned out because I did not know to emotionally self-regulate and deal with the constant stress of caring for students. That is why I believe so strongly in using HeartMath® tools to help others teachers. I am healed and I want to help you heal. It might takes years before the hidden stresses turn into chronic health conditions. I KNOW FROM EXPERIENCE!
Teachers and students are benefitting from programs I have developed using HeartMath® tools and other mindfulness tools:
- Training and coaching in Heart Brain coherence
- Tools to help manage stress in school and at home
- Emotional self regulation
- Co-regulation tools to get along better with students, other teachers, administrators and parents
- Trauma informed behavioral management plans for the classroom
- Easy ways to integrate the HeartMath tools into the curriculum
- The use of the Connection Practice to help manage conflict
- School-wide and classroom programs to help students manage stress and anger, improve test scores and cooperate better with each other
- Integration with existing SEL programs
