As summer approaches, many educators find themselves taking a big sigh of relief; another year has come to an end. We can put the lesson plans, counseling sessions, and staff meetings behind us, and look forward to a well-deserved break with time to replenish the spirit and reconnect with ourselves and others whom we hold dear.
This month, as you reflect, rejuvenate, and reimagine what is possible, the Greater Good Science Center Happiness Calendar offers daily tips and practices to help you slow down and connect.
Thank you for all you do, educators!
