This journal is your permission slip to give yourself some TIME! Being a teacher can be a rollercoaster ride. We have times that are extremely rewarding and other moments that are tough.

Honestly, many self-care journals are just repetitive or not what I need. This is designed for teachers! So useful! I couldn't put it down. Like a gentle friend. And pretty, too. Thank you!
This is a lovely looking and easy to use journal. Highly recommend.
Used some of the ideas, but not the entire resource. Too lengthy for my purposes in the PD.
I appreciate you offering resources specifically to support teacher wellness.
Finally a TPT purchase for ME! I enjoyed creating the binder and found myself feeling less stressed after. I applied the points in the binder and felt good about taking care of me, not guilty about taking time away from family/work.
I printed this out and put it in a binder. I reviewed many of the pages and can't wait to get started. There is much more to this resource than I had first considered. Love it. Teachers need self care too!
I enjoyed using this with my students in the classroom!
This resource helped to guide me in the right direction when I was struggling with my work-life balance.
We used this at the beginning of the year for teachers during orientation
This was a great resource, thank you for sharing!
This is something I feel all teachers should have. Great resource!
Great to use during the pandemic to make sure I could be there for the students while dealing with my own struggles. Will use time and time again.
Great resource to remember to put yourself first. Thank you!
Great resource to reflect on SEL for myself and with the students.
Awesome Chelsey!
Super cute! Great resource.
I used this with my students at the beginning of the year for some SEL practice. Students were very engaged and excited to participate. It's way better than the canned curriculum we use for SEL. It would also be great for its intended purpose, for teachers to use as self-care.
We love love love hearing this Brittany! This is awesome, thanks so much for sharing with us!!
Love this journal. It has really helped me reflect and add special moments to my day.
As a first year teacher, and still a student myself, I have found that this was incredibly necessary this year!
This is a great resource for our schools teachers.

Who doesn’t need self-care right now? This was a great addition to a PD training I did with my team on self-care.
We couldn't agree more! Thank you for the feedback.
