Joy by Design: Practical Wellness Strategies for Educators and Students

Thursday November 5, 2026 12:45pm - 1:30pm EST

Lecture

Educators and students are navigating increasing stress, constant demands, and a world that rarely slows down. While we can't eliminate every challenge, we can intentionally create environments where both adults and students feel more connected, resilient, and energized.

In this engaging and interactive workshop, participants will explore practical strategies for protecting their own well-being while also supporting the emotional wellness of the students they serve. Through reflection, collaboration, and hands-on activities, educators will identify energy drains, discover simple joy-building practices, and learn realistic ways to create moments of connection throughout the school day.

Participants will leave with ready-to-use ideas for the classroom, gym, locker room, and beyond, including strategies for reducing stress, building belonging, celebrating progress, fostering resilience, and helping students develop healthy habits that support lifelong well-being.

Because wellness isn't one more thing to add to your plate. It's the foundation that helps everything else work better.
