Teaching is not a job, it's a passion. Caring and compassionate educators will stop at nothing to be sure their students have everything they need to flourish. As teaching demands increase, the attention teachers give to their own needs is often sacrificed. The pressures of teaching are forcing educators to choose between what they love to do and their own well-being. The levels of stress are so high that teacher shortages are considered a crisis in the United States. Authors Connie Hamilton and Dorothy VanderJagt share an alternative. They believe it's possible to be a highly effective teacher and focus on yourself. Strained and Drained: Tools for Overworked Teachers describes five areas of wellness and offers realistic and practical ways that teachers can create habits to support each one. You'll find effective ways to take care of YOU, both in and out of the classroom. Wellness is not an isolated activity, it's a way of life and requires a mindset that values and prioritizes it. The strategies you gain from this book will support your physical, emotional, social, cognitive, and spiritual health and will put you at your best so you can enjoy what the authors still believe is the most important and rewarding profession on earth.

Features include Seven adaptable models-one per mindshift-for finding your own solutions to perennial problems Stories highlighting the successful implementation of each mindshift Discussions to help you match mindshifts to particular problems Technical tips and reflection questions Persistent problems in education can only be solved if we approach them as the crises that they are.
