For the Love of it: A Mindful Moment of Rejuvenation for Educators // with Joanna Tebbs Young

Do you remember when you still had a passion for teaching, how it used to set your soul alight? 

At the beginning of a new, still uncertain school year, when you may be exhausted and on the edge of burn-out, can you remember the joy that sharing the love of learning once brought you? 

In this two-hour meditative, self-care workshop on Zoom, in community with those who also know first-hand the struggles of your chosen career path, you will write to prompts designed to reignite that spark of passion that made you the teacher you are. 

Who should take this class 

This class is open to any and all educators who yearn for a space to renew their passion for and love of teaching.  

Format

• One two-hour live session over Zoom;
• For approximately every half-hour on Zoom, there will be a 15-minute off-camera writing break.
