Learn moreDiscover the simple three-part self-care system that will help you stay calm in class, enjoy a good work–life balance and keep doing the job you love.
Drawing on both her own 20+ years in the profession and the experiences of her many teacher friends, Michelle has developed a three-part system to help you not just survive but thrive in teaching.
In What Happy Teachers Do, she takes you through these three principles:
1. Self-care: You’ll learn how to deal with the unique highs and lows of the teaching year and practice good self-care every day.
2. Mindfulness: Michelle explains the neuroscience and benefits of mindfulness, and details short mindful practices that can help you in times of stress, overwhelm, exhaustion or judgement.
3. Tapping (Emotional Freedom Techniques or EFT): Tapping is an alternative treatment for physical pain and emotional distress, and can help to restore balance to your body's energy. Use these tapping scripts in both your personal and teaching life, such as when you’re having difficulty sleeping, preparing for a lesson observation or worried about an awkward conversation with a parent.
This audiobook will help all teachers, whether you’re in your first or thirty-first year of teaching, to reduce stress, prioritize self-care and feel empowered. This is what happy teachers do.
