What is the secret to improved student outcomes AND improved happiness for you, the teacher, all had one superpower habit at their core? And that habit was as simple as being present and getting in a "flow" state?

This episode is part two in the series of The Ultimate Educator's Handbook for Happiness where I do a deep dive into some of the habits in my book Positive Mindset Habits for Teachers. And this episode is all about:

🧘‍♀️ How to give students what they really need from you - your presence
🏀 What great teaching has in common with being a great athlete
👀 What you may be unintentionally doing that is "death to flow"
💻 How the idea that multi-tasking saves you time & energy is 100% wrong (and science proves it)
➡️ The difference between a virtuous circle of productivity and calm in the classroom, and a vicious circle of frustration and poor behavior - and what you may be unintentionally doing that contributes to it

If you've ever wanted to feel more calm and less distracted in the classroom, this episode is for you!
