Educator Self-Care Resource List
Hello Fellow Educators!
As veteran educators, advocates for trauma awareness, and yoga practitioners, we understand how important self-care for educational staff is. We also recognize that it is sometimes easier said than done. The key is to find what resonates with you and realize you are not alone in the reality of the struggles educators experience.
Namaste,
