Session Descriptions

1. Opening Session: The Purpose of Pause
This heart-centered opening invites educators to reflect on the power of stillness, the cost of burnout, and the opportunity to shift from survival to sustainability. We’ll explore how the Eight Dimensions of Wellness create a more balanced life and career—and set intentions for the day ahead.

2. Whole & Well: The Eight Dimensions of Educator Wellness
In this interactive session, we’ll explore true wellness through the Eight Dimensions: Emotional, Physical, Intellectual, Social, Spiritual, Environmental, Financial, and Occupational. You’ll identify your strengths, notice gaps, and map out your path to wholeness.

3. Boundaries That Build: Saying No to Burnout
Are you tired of being stretched too thin? This workshop provides practical strategies for creating and maintaining the six types of boundaries (Physical, Emotional, Intellectual, sexual, Material, and Time) in and out of the classroom. You’ll learn how to communicate your limits with clarity and confidence so you can give your best without giving it all away.

4. Food Truths and Consequences
Healthy habits start in the grocery store and kitchen. This session offers realistic, nutrient-packed food strategies for educators on the go. Discover how to fuel your body for energy, clarity, and calm. It includes a sample meal guide and snack hacks you can start using immediately.

5. Know Your Capacity: The Power of Check-Ins
How do you know when you’ve reached your limit? This session guides you through tools to assess your energy, stress, and emotional load. Learn how to listen to your body and mind—and design your day with realistic wellness boundaries in place.

6. You Are Not Alone: Building Your Wellness Support System
We heal in community. This powerful session breaks the silence around asking for help. You’ll learn how to seek support—whether it’s therapy, coaching, peer groups, or wellness mentors. Plus, get connected to real-world resources that support educator mental health.

7. Are You Financial Fit? Money and finances can contribute to our overall wellness. This session gives guidance about financial, saving, and spending tips. This is an opportunity to learn and set financial goals for the present and future.

8. Yoga in the Classroom (physical)
Learn new techniques and yoga or pilates positions that address stiff joints, an achy back, and sore legs and feet from all the walking and standing.

9. Closing Session: Exhale Together (social)
We’ll end the day with a collective exhale—a moment of reflection, restoration, and renewal. Expect breathwork, affirmations, and a guided visualization to help anchor your wellness goals. You’ll leave feeling reconnected to your purpose and ready to thrive.
