You know what I mean – you love teaching,
but at the end of a break, the anticipation of heading back to the breakneck and
exhausting speed of what it takes to do your job has hijacked the end of your
vacation time. Maybe it’s the form of an upset stomach or headache,
binge-eating or feeling depressed, not being able to sleep or perhaps being so
tired all you can do is sleep, or in dozens of other ways stress shows up in your
body. And no matter what you do to distract yourself, your to-do list for
school won’t stop hammering at you, making it hard to enjoy the last bit of break
time with your family.
Is the cycle of stress and non-stop obligations
is making you sick? Is it impacting your physical and mental abilities to do
your job? Is it distracting you from your family life? You’ve probably tried
dozens of remedies to beat this, but it’s hard to do on your own, especially
when life keeps coming at you at cyber-speed and you’re expected to stay on top
of it all.
I’ve been where you are, and after decades
of dealing with the physical ramifications stress and exhaustion were taking on
my body, it nearly killed me. I had to do something besides take more prescription
drugs, have more surgeries, and miss more school. I was in chronic pain, taking
a toxic cocktail of prescriptions, overweight, depressed, and exhausted. My
immune system couldn’t fight off the germs to which I was exposed, so I caught
all the bugs that came through my classroom. Trying to keep up a full teaching,
parenting, and performing schedule while physically exhausted was taking its
toll on my ability to function and do my job.
If this sounds familiar, then you’ll want
to check out my new book I Love My Job
But It’s Killing Me: A Teacher’s Guide to Conquering Chronic Stress and Exhaustion.
In it, I share the program I developed
to help busy teachers who need help coping with the inevitable stress,
exhaustion, and weariness that gets in the way of staying healthy.
In the book, you will learn proven
techniques that result in:
# More restorative sleep.
# Fewer aches and pains.
# Stronger immune system = no more pesky colds
and other bugs!
# Clearer skin.
# Healthier weight.
# More energy.
# Bye bye brain fog!
As teachers, we are asked to take care of everyone
else, and we willingly do so. But when do
you get to take care of YOU? What I can tell you from years of personal
experience is that if you don’t take care of yourself, pretty soon you’ll be
too sick to take care of anyone else, either. The stakes are high, and burnout,
chronic illness, and mental fatigue don’t get better on their own.
If you can’t wait until my book is released on Valentine’s Day to find out how you can turn around the symptoms that are making it so hard to do your job, take the FREE Mojo Meter. You’ll get a quick assessment of how you are managing stress and exhaustion. And if you’re ready to invest in yourself on a path to a sustainable healthier and happier future once and for all, one where you find the joy in your job and your personal lives because you are no longer so sick and exhausted, then let’s chat and see if my mPower Method Maestra Class is right for you!
2019 is your year to feel good again. With
you on the journey –
