Finding Balance in the Classroom and Beyond: An Integrative Self-Care Session for Educators

Date: Saturday, September 12th, 2026 Time: 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM

Speaker: Dr. Masatoshi Shoji

Description:
Teaching can be stressful, and educators often face burnout, fatigue, and diminished motivation. In this session, participants will learn practical, integrative self-care strategies to enhance their well-being. Drawing from Traditional Chinese Medicine, we'll explore mindfulness and breathing techniques, along with key meridian points to relieve tension and restore balance. Teachers will also learn simple, actionable tools to manage stress, improve focus, and boost energy. By the end of the session, educators will have new strategies for nurturing their mental and physical health in ways that support both their personal lives and teaching practice.
