Stress Relievers for a Bright Teacher!!

 

Stress Relievers for a Bright Teacher!! 

Mid-Winter and what teacher isn't at least a little stressed and tired?  We know that stress relievers can help rejuvenate you and get you through the remainder of the school year!

So, how does a Bright Teacher start to de-stress?
Here are some helpful ideas:

• Play relaxing music in the classroom while your students work. My favorite CDs are my Yanni albums. No words, just pure music bliss!
• Exercise right after school to clear your mind of classroom worries.
• Eat Healthy - this includes a good breakfast, healthy snacks, and pack your lunch (skip that cafeteria food).
• Manage your time and be realistic with the goals that you can accomplish each day.
• Sleep - yes, get 7-8 hours of sleep each day.
• Reward yourself for sticking to your goals, eating healthy, exercising and taking time for yourself with a small purchase, a nap, a massage, or more time to read that book on your desk!!

 

Try it out for a few weeks and then check back and leave a comment to let us know how you are doing and what you have implemented to make your day less stressful!
