Compassion for Teachers
Teachers spend so much of the day noticing what other people need.
But what happens when the person who needs compassion is you? The One Who Needs to Be Sat Beside is a gentle two-page reflection for educators experiencing disappointment, grief, exhaustion, overwhelm, or simply a difficult day. Rather than asking teachers to immediately fix, explain, or move past what they are feeling, this reflection offers another practice: remaining compassionately beside yourself.
This resource can be used during a planning period, after a difficult school day, before or after school, or whenever an educator needs a few quiet minutes to return to themselves.
This resource includes:
A beautifully designed 2-page printable reflection
Guided questions for self-compassion
A brief practice that can be completed privately in just a few minutes
A gentle reminder that not every difficult feeling needs to be immediately solved
Perfect for: teacher wellness, educator self-care, difficult teaching days, burnout prevention, reflective practice, beginning- or end-of-day reflection, and staff wellness resources.
