Happy & Resilient: The Complete Guide to Joyful Teaching, Learning, and Living (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781956306576)

Well-being and resilience can be learned-by students and teachers!Teaching is a deeply relational endeavor at its core, and we cannot be there for our students unless we are first emotionally available to ourselves. But that kind of well-being doesn't just happen. It takes investing in our own happiness, resilience, and presence for us to flourish and become the kind of educators students can rely on-the kind that can help them flourish as well. For over fifteen years, Roni Habib has used positive psychology to teach thousands of educators and leaders effective and rigorously studied practices for developing the types of thoughts, attitudes, and actions that allow us to thrive in life and to be top educators no matter what subject or grade level we teach. In Happy & Resilient, Roni shares practical ideas, skills, and exercises that will support your teaching in the classroom, your leadership at school, and your own well-being and resilience. Each chapter includes activities to use in the classroom with students or at school with your staff, journal prompts to deepen your reflection, and graphic organizers that recap the core exercises. This book lays out a path for what all educators deserve: to be happy and resilient.
