Processing Stress and Optimistic Practices

Monday November 2, 2026 1:10pm - 2:00pm CST

213-215

On a daily basis, we are geared to scan for improvements in our own crafts and then turn those negatives into positives. However, this skill as educators takes a toll on our personal lives and production. Participants will practice some daily practices to create space for optimistic practices and turn stress management into stress processing for longevity of life. We need to take care of ourselves, our family, and our students by being mentally, physically, and emotionally healthy.

Use practical strategies for stress processing in high emotional settings and find your breath
Daily practices that turn into habits to improve stress levels and improve optimism
Create a plan that includes being held accountable to make changes
