It's so easy to fall into doing all the things once we go back to school from winter break. We feel motivated because we've had the time off. We have a lot more energy than we did before. But is that really is a reason to end up in burnout? 

Today, Adva discusses the importance of doing less. It doesn't mean don't work hard BUT it does emphasize the importance of not doing it ALL, all day every day. She talks about the specific signs of burnout she saw when she tried to do it all a few years ago and digs into tools you can use to heal that burnout if you're in the thick of it.

3 KEY TAKEAWAYS:

  • Healing is LINEAR. It doesn't just take a day or two and it isn't just going to happen. You have to work at it.
  • Rest continues to be an important piece to being able to show up as the teacher you envision yourself being. 
  • Losing sight of who you are due to teaching is not a good thing. It's important to ask yourself this question: who are you at the CORE?
