What in the world do you do to get mentally prepared for a school year like this?

Are you feeling the “Sunday Scaries” as you think about all of the unknowns that face us this year and wonder how you can stay grounded and not let it impact your mental, emotional, and physical health?

You know the symptoms that show up when you are struggling as a teacher …

  • Sleepless nights
  • Constant worry
  • Feeling overwhelmed
  • Not knowing what to do to plan for the unknown
  • Overeating
  • High blood pressure
  • Unwinding with excess alcohol
  • Relying on medication to relieve or mask symptoms
  • Collapsing at the end of the day with no energy left for your own family
  • Aches and pains that are exacerbated by stressors
  • Fear that your program is falling apart under these conditions

How are you supposed to show up for your students when this is so hard on you?

I don’t have all the answers, but I do have a few strategies I can share that will help you move into this school year a little more grounded and with a couple of tools to give you the stamina you’ll need to do this important work without burning out.

If you’d like to …

  • Learn a strategy that you and your students can master that diffuses excess energy and helps everyone settle in and focus before you dive into content every day
  • Feel healthy and grounded even when external forces seem to be doing everything in their power to cause stress
  • Have a reliable way to lower your heart rate / blood pressure when you feel anxiety and overwhelm
  • Develop the SuperPower of helping students feel peaceful in your presence so they can focus on the content and community you are teaching them

… then join me on Tuesday, August 31 from 4:00 to 5:00 Pacific time for an Intention Setting Session where I will help you get some clarity on how to approach and set up this year for less stress and more success.

This will be a live session with the opportunity for you to interact and ask questions. My intention is to give you a couple of useful tips so you can rest easier when you think about the upcoming school year.

THANK YOU for your dedication to music education. You are changing kids’ lives through your work. It matters.

With you on this journey-

Lesley
