Has your joy of teaching drowned in the sea of classroom chaos?
When was the last time you were actually excited to start your day in your classroom? When was the last time you felt energized rather than depleted and exhausted? It has probably been years, maybe even decades. Teaching is one of the most stressful professions. No wonder. You try desperately to cram in the required curriculum into each lesson while also having to manage the myriad of challenging behaviors that arise each day with your students.
Feeling like something has to give before you go insane? Or take another personal day?
There are only 2 things keeping you from leaving this job; your pension and your passion. The security is hard to toss out the window and the truth is, you still get chills when you think of the lives you have changed and still could change if you could only hang in a little longer or figure out how to manage all of the pressure with the job.
In Hall Pass, Allison Morgan combines her 25 years of working with and coaching educators, pediatric therapists and mental health professionals to guide you on a mindful journey to rediscover why you became a teacher and how you can remain one with less stress and more joy, positivity and purpose.
