REPEAT !

Stretch & Re-center

Stand up, stretch your arms and back. A quick physical reset can help your mind focus.

Sip & Savor

Sip your tea or coffee mindfully. Focus on the warmth and taste, not your to-do list.

Acknowledge a Win

Acknowledge one small accomplishment, whether it is in the school or for yourself.

The 'STOP' Method

When you feel overwhelmed, remember to:

Stop what you're doing.
Take a breath.
Observe your thoughts and feelings.
Proceed with intention.

5-4-3-2-1 Grounding

To quickly re-center yourself, name:

5 things you can see.
4 things you can feel.
3 things you can hear.
2 things you can smell.
1 thing you can taste.

Quick Body Scan

Take a moment to close your eyes and mentally check in with each part of your body, from your head to your toes. Notice any tension and consciously release it.

Building Sustainable Habits

Strategies to help you manage your time and energy, both in and out of the school.

Tidy Up and Switch Off

Use the last 5 minutes of each day to tidy your desk and prepare for the next. This creates a clear psychological boundary between work and home.

Digital Boundaries & Time Zones

Set specific times for checking emails, especially for parents in different time zones. It's okay to not be "on" 24/7.

Fuel Your Body & Mind

Keep a water bottle and healthy snacks at your desk. Proper hydration and nourishment are essential for focus and mood throughout the school day.

The Power of Disconnecting

Schedule an evening a week to go completely screen-free. Use this time to read, walk, or engage in a hobby to recharge your mind and body.
