LEANING IN: The Educators Guide to Loving Stress CLICK AND COLLECT
Teachers are being told they are overwhelmed and burning out; and the usual response is to help them reduce stress.but what if stress isn't always the problem?In Leaning In: The Educatorā€™s Guide to Loving Stress, behavioural scientist and education consultant, Dr Helen Street challenges one of the most entrenched assumptions in contemporary wellbeing: that a good life contains as little stress as possible.Stress is an inevitable part of caring deeply, attempting difficult things, learning, changing and doing work that matters. The question is not simply how much stress we experience, but how we understand it, how equipped we feel to meet the challenges in front of us, and whether the environments around us help or hinder our capacity to respond.Drawing on psychological research, a background in social psychology and decades of experience working with educators and schools, Leaning In explores why the same demanding experience can leave one person feeling threatened and overwhelmed while another feels energised and engaged; and why telling people to become more resilient is never enough.Leaning In explores how educators can build their capacity for challenge through reframing, deliberate practice, feedback, values, movement, rest, connection and self-determination. It also turns the lens towards schools themselves, asking how culture, relationships, expectations and working environments can support educators rather than placing responsibility for wellbeing solely on individuals.This is not a book about tolerating chronic stress, accepting unreasonable demands or putting a positive spin on burnout.It is an invitation to develop a richer relationship with challenge.To build the capacity to meet difficult moments rather than simply trying to avoid them.And ultimately, to discover that some of the stress in our lives is there for a very good reason:because we are doing something that matters.
