Dr. Kanold will inspire you to:
- Develop strategies for bringing your best self to work each day
- Prioritize routines for physical, mental, emotional and social wellness
- Examine research-affirmed strategies to avoid prolonged stress, exhaustion and burnout
- Utilize a robust rating protocol to identify wellness routines
- Learn and grow with colleagues to share wellness practices that influence student achievement
- Reflect on your current wellness story to reconnect to your “why” and a greater purpose as an educator
Our daily wellness and well-being as educators can be elusive. There is a fine line between being busy while living a well-managed life and being hurried into a stress-filled life on the brink of emotional and physical exhaustion. Participating in an active process toward achieving a positive state of good health and well-being provides a pathway for overcoming obstacles to a fulfilling life as an educator.
Heartland AEA is once again excited to offer our districts an opportunity to participate in an event that will assist you in recruiting quality educators to your district -- the annual Iowa State University School of Education Teacher Education Career Fair! The Fair is open to the public and is predicted to host 250+ students in multiple content areas. To encourage your participation in this worthwhile event, Heartland AEA will cover the cost of your district/school's $75 Career Fair registration fee. Registration closes Feb. 20.
