About this book
As more students experience trauma and anxiety, the toll of teachers' compassion fatigue cannot be overlooked. This important book explores what compassion fatigue looks and feels like for teachers, who can become mentally and physically exhausted from caring and loving their students and may not want to stay in the profession as a result. Topics explore symptoms that may arise, the research on educator health and well?being, and strategies you can implement in your classroom and personal life to mitigate the effects. Each chapter offers vignettes to showcase teachers' experiences with compassion fatigue, reflection questions to help you relate to the content personally and professionally, and tools you can use throughout the school year. This powerful book equips teachers with the knowledge to make impactful decisions, enhancing their quality of life and improving school climate, working conditions, and the overall well-being of students.
