Ever considered visualizing your entire teaching day before you even get to school? Thinking it can make it so!
Ohm, baby!
Joe and I cooked up this special episode just for you, dear listeners, as you move into another wonderful and stressful school year. We know that the first day back can be… well, lots of things. That’s why we cut right to it, offering quick, actionable ways to get your mind right, manage the classroom, and even understand those tricky student dynamics before the school year gets rolling. We’ve pulled some great ideas from our teaching friends, mixed in our own thoughts, and kept it short and sweet.
You’ll hear about
creative approaches to the first day
self-care on and after the first day
what to do with dread
what psychodynamic shenanigans to look for
For my non-teachers out there: Get some good tips on how to approach any new beginning. Self-care, planning, managing dread, applying psychodynamic wisdom — it’s all relevant to all of us all of the time!
