Description
This trail focuses on managing the stresses and changes in our
lives so that they don't become obstacles to our self-care and
renewal. You will discover the causes and indicators of different
kinds of stresses in our daily lives. You will learn about importance
of resilience in our acceptance and management of changes in our
lives. And, most importantly, you will be able to make choices about
practical steps that you can take to build and strengthen your own
resilience, incorporating what you have learned into your overall
stress management strategy. The causes and symptoms of "teacher
burn-out" may be of special interest to you - as well as the
suggestions which may lead to prevention and recovery.
Let's begin this trail by taking a moment to read the new information
in the case study of Sandy. While you are reading, look for
situations in Sandy's story that may compare to situations in your
own life.
