This activity was originally a segment of Episode 24. I am publishing each one separately so you can access them easier.
It is really important to do simple but effective self-care tasks each day to relieve stress and avoid teacher burnout. The activities in this series take one minute or less. They are designed to help you stop, and refocus - for only a minute. Repeat as needed throughout your day.
Try them all out, then pick out the ones that work best for you and repeat them often during the school day.
"Activity 1: Breathing" can be done alone, with your family, co-workers, or maybe even with your class. Many special educators teach their students to breathe or count to ten as a calming strategy. We adults need to do it also!
