Addressing Grief
All we learn about helping students and staff grieve has pay-off for our personal lives as well, because grief and loss are part of life. These resources will help your gain an understanding of grief, the process of reconciling or coming to terms with loss, how to support that process and take advantage of the “teachable moments” that such times provide for improving student attitude and school climate.

Creating Rituals that Feed Your Soul
This activity accompanies the daily “Organizing Time to Bring More Joy” worksheet. Instead of listing the practical, necessary tasks for each day, you will explore various areas of life upon which to build soul-fueling rituals. You’ll have space to create a simple activity around the areas that are most important to you.
Organizing Time to Bring More Joy
While each day always requires flexibility, when you start the day with clear goals, the odds of getting your priorities completed is much higher. You can ensure you’re making time for self-care, taking enough breaks, optimizing your time, and getting the rest you need. Complete this simple worksheet and see how it can change your perspective.
Self Care: 25 Things I Love to Do
In this simple worksheet, you’re invited to list all the things you love to do and notice what’s changed in how frequently you pursue them. If you’re stopped doing some activities, explore why. This pause for reflection encourages you to shift some things in your life so you’re able to pursue what you love on a consistent basis. You may have to say “no” to something to make space, but self-care is vital if we are to care for others.
