Sped Teacher Small Talk Segment w/Co-Host Paul Hubbard
The Importance of Self Care for Special Educators
In today's episode, we discuss a crucial topic that is important for all special education teachers—self-care.
In a profession that demands a high level of emotional and physical commitment, taking time for yourself isn't a luxury; it's a necessity.
Listen in as Paul and I discuss:
- How self-care and self-indulgence are NOT the same thing
- Why special educators need to provide themselves with self-care
- Ways to go about caring for yourself
- Therapy
- Talking with a friend
- Exercise
- Reflection
- Enjoying a hobby
- Reducing screen time
Ā You'll also learn about Paul's comical analogy on the importance of not keeping stress bottled up.
