Beyond Self-Care: Leading a Systemic Approach to Well-Being for Educators
Markin, Gail
Solution Tree
Wellness for teachers and support staff means so much more than taking time for self-care. It requires system-wide change supported by leadership. This book provides K-12 administrators with a framework and tools to address the stress that impacts daily life for the majority of educators. So often, educators' conversations about well-being begin and end with self-care, without addressing all aspects of educator wellness. Author Gail Markin explores the importance of well-being at individual, group, and system levels, as well as the role of leadership in supporting cultures of well-being. Using research-based practices and excerpts of conversations from working educators, Markin delivers a guidebook to healthier, more passionate schools. This book will help K-12 leaders: (1) Understand why well-being matters in education; (2) Learn about research-based, SEL-focused self-care practices; (3) Improve their leadership skills to better support well-being in their school community; (4) Access real-world examples that illustrate how these practices work; and (5) Build better systems to improve both personal and collective well-being.
