Trauma- and equity-informed practices to help you thrive in the field of education

If we don't show up for ourselves, we can't show up for our students and colleagues. Burnout and compassion fatigue are the results of prolonged stress and trauma -- all too common in the ever-more-demanding lives of today's educators. The Mind-Body Connection for Educators offers a uniquely holistic way for education professionals to prioritize healing before burnout hits. Inside, Dr. Kathryn Kennedy acknowledges system-level and systemic issues that make educator well-being a system-level challenge rather than an individual one. She also provides strategies and practices for whole-body health, empowering you to heal trauma and prolonged stress, so you can find peace, balance, and resilience inside and out.

You'll learn why prioritizing healing is important not only for your mental and physical health and well-being, but also for your learning, teaching, and leading processes. Sharing the basics of somatic practices like yoga, breathwork, meditation, mindfulness, Qigong, and yin yoga, this book illustrates the profound connection between the body and the mind. Research demonstrates the positive healing effects these practices can have on prolonged stress and trauma, and this book teaches you short practices you can work into your daily routine. You will also learn how to tune into and respond to your emotional reactions when navigating everyday life.

"Filled with practical advice, academic groundedness, and hard-won wisdom, this book is a lifeline for any teacher who is struggling to keep up with the demands of our current education system and maintain their physical, mental, and emotional well-being. From mindfulness practices to intentional movement, this book offers a comprehensive guide for educators on how to navigate the mind-body connection and reclaim their sense of resilience and joy in the classroom."
--Albert Wong, PhD, Director of the Trauma Certificate Program, Somatopia
