Working with children in the classroom is challenging. In addition, many of the children and families we serve exhibit the behavioral or emotional residue of traumatic exposure. As professionals working with vulnerable and often trauma-impacted children and families, it is essential for us to be emotionally available. We can only offer this emotional availability if we are thoughtful about caring for ourselves. This 5 hour session will offer practical self-care exercises, tools, and strategies to promote self-awareness, to support emotional balance, and to create supportive professional environments.
By the end of this session, participants will be able to:
- Evaluate their own self-care activities and make a self-care plan
- Use breathing exercises to promote health and well-being
- Connect with others and discuss health and wellness
Training provided by the Health Federation of Philadelphia's Multiplying Connections Initiative through a grant from Philadelphia Health Management Corporation's (PHMC) Southeast Regional Key (SERK) Program
