Learn to shine bright- the importance of self care for teachers

I liked the video on Kelly H. The first thing that she pointed out is that staff wellbeing is so important, and something that should be addressed.  We are not alone in our stress as teaching staff, share with other to build support.  
Saying yes to yourself.  This is a challenge not just as teaching staff but also as a parent.  Putting your needs first can seem selfish but in reality it makes you a better persona and better able to handle life situations. 
Her words "Take Care of Yourself"  stood out, in bold letters to me. Taking time to exercise, mindfulness, and  truly investing in yourself.  Her reasoning "why"  because we are unique and important.   Her final words of protecting your light and letting it shine for others is how we accomplish our tasks.
