Module #8 Smart Brain
(Video)
Our brains seek a sense of meaning and purpose in all things that we do.
Knowing our why and having clarity of direction are essential tools to retain our passion and enthusiasm for teaching.
In this module we identify the needs of our Smart Brain: meaning, clarity, focus, sense of purpose, positive coping mechanisms, and healthy help seeking. As a high demand and very dynamic sector, educators will always experience daily challenge.
This module helps positively reframe our stressors as opportunities for growth.
This module is further supported by the below videos, resources and action plans:
- What’s my why? Finding your purpose and meaning at work
- Coping: the good, the bad and the just plain dumb
- Reframing: turning stress and fear into a little nervous excitement and a challenge
- Mindfulness: a practice that is both action and a lens
- Declutter for focus: streamline and build your concentration
- My Why to My How: how to lose the victim mentality
- Getting help when you need it: identifying the challenged faced, find on-going support, your history, acute incidents, and when the cluster f**k arrives.
- Productivity: identify your productivity blockers
- Productivity solutions: reclaim your time and be productive using tools from these 15
