    Parent Teacher Conferences can leave a lot of people feeling rushed, insecure, frazzled, and ineffective.  
    But not you!

    As a Tranquil Teacher (classroom, coach, or parent!) you know the importance of bringing calm, collaborative energy to the table.  But sometimes we aren't sure exactly how to do that.

    In this video I'll show you the three most important things to focus on BEFORE and DURING your next parent- teacher conference so you can BRING HOME THE GOLD!

  • Episode 25: Feed My Soul Project part 1

    In this interview episode we get a peak into how a great idea turns into a growing business through the ingenuity of an artist, the adaptability of a pandemic, and the application of Instructional Yoga Coach Training.

    Suzanne Mapes is a former IYC student, and current IYC Certified Coach, as well as the founder of The Feed My Soul Project, a "mobile yoga studio" in Southern California that serves kids through partnerships with her local schools and school districts.

    This is a 2-part discussion.
    Episode 25:  Feed My Soul part 1
    Episode 26: Feed My Soul part 2

    I hope you'll listen to both episodes to get inspired and encouraged to bring yoga to the students in your life!

  • Episode 24: Resilience vs Safety

    How can we support the the emotional health of our students when we are facing the horrific events of the past several months, if not years?  Is it overly optimistic to believe we can all heal and feel put-back-together when entire communities are being destroyed?

    In this episode we examine the reality of society's traumas and a realistic outlook for the future, based on the knowledge we have to raise to calm, kind kids.

  • Episode 23: 7 Elements of Wellbeing for Teacher Self-Care

    Self Care is an overused term but an underutilized practice, mostly because we misinterpret its purpose.

    At School Yoga Coach, we practice self care by applying strategies to balance the nervous system.

    We have a weekly curriculum of Self Care for our Tranquil Teacher Membership.
    In this episode we give you an overview of the 7 Elements we cover, plus an extra element that we all need now!

    Tranquil Teacher Memberships are available to both individual teachers and school / SEL groups.

  • Episode 22: Self Care for Teachers vs System Care for Schools


    Many school districts are finally paying attention to the Self Care needs of teachers -- but is too little?  too  late?  Or is it the wrong focus altogether?

    In today's podcast I talk about the difference between taking care of a system (like the education system, or a district school system) and what I consider true Self Care.   
    Let me your experiences and thoughts about SELF CARE programs for teachers!

  • Episode 21: Self Care for Tranquil Teachers


    Teachers need self-care now, more than ever.
    Knowing you need it, and knowing what to do to make that happen are not the same thing!
     In this episode,  we talk about how education has changed for teachers over the past several years, the impact it is having on teacher burn-out and teacher turn-over rates.

    But I'm here to help teachers find the self-care they need as they manage the stress, instability, or consistency in their careers, so that they are healthy adults, bringing positive energy to the lives of students and into their own future.

  • Episode 20: SEL Backlash -- Why and what to do about it

    When did Social Emotional Learning become such a divisive issue?  As is the case for most controversies, a lot of the SEL backlash is based on misconceptions or misapplications of what SEL is intended to be. 

    In today's episode we talk about the reasons for this backlash so that you and your school community can evaluate if you are feeding into the fears or building a partnership.  In this case, doing right is more important than being right!  So let's make sure we know how to keep kids and families feeling safe, listened to, and included.

  • Episode 19: Meet and Greet Kids from the Bottom Up

    Kids are back to school in one way or another in most areas of the country.  In light of these anxious times, we teachers could use little yoga influence as we meet new students and try to connect and ease their anxiousness.   

    This is a great way to spend just a few minutes to connect with kids AND to teach some self-regulation skills from the Bottom Up!
