Wellbeing Training

Learn how to improve your wellbeing and support your students with a foundation in social emotional learning and physical health.

Wellbeing is not just the absence of disease or illness. It is a complex combination of a person's physical, mental, emotional and social health factors. Wellbeing is strongly linked to happiness and life satisfaction. In short, wellbeing could be described as how you feel about yourself and your life.

In an environment of continual restructure and reformation, teachers often voice enormously high levels of work-related stress, anxiety and pressure to perform. (Jacobs 2008). They are expected to attend seminars that help them manage their stress levels, but are not given to the tools to implement them in an everyday environment. Teachers lead every day: mentoring, guiding, nurturing and aspiring. But, how do you take care of yourself?

Through our professional development programs and student programs, we are committed to developing the physical, social and emotional health of individuals and developing healthy skills for life that lead to individual and community wellbeing, especially in education.
