Welcome to EMBODIED EDUCATORS — This is a space for the educator underneath the role. Not another teacher tips group. Not a place to share bulletin board ideas or debate grading policies. This is something different. It's a group for the one who went into teaching because they felt it was work that mattered to the world. Who still believes that, even on the days when it's hard to feel it. Who has absorbed more emotional weight than most people — and who has been quietly carrying it, often alone, because that's just what educators do. Embodied means something specific to me. It means we're not just thinking about this work — we're living it in our bodies. In the tension in your shoulders at the end of a long day. In the way your nervous system braces every Sunday evening. In the exhaustion that sleep alone doesn't fix. In the grief you feel when a student you worked so hard for still doesn't make it. In the pride that swells up sometimes so fast it surprises you. It's how our all our tissues respond to conflict, joy, change, and belonging. This community exists to honor all of that. To name it, move it, and — when we're ready — to release what is no longer serving us and find new ways to process the complexities of our work. This is NOT another mindfulness group where the end goal is to be more calm, to show up with emotional regulation suppression. Instead, it is a place for honesty, shared practice, and building resilience that allows more aliveness for educators. ⏱️WHAT TO EXPECT: -SUNDAY SOMATICS: a video to inform your somatic practice -WEDNESDAY CHECK IN: Discussion/reflection tied to somatic practice for the week -FRIDAY REFLECTION: Close your week by noticing what has shifted, what you want to celebrate, and what is emerging for you in your practice. *Look for additional opportunities for group coaching, meditations, and readings 🤝COMMUNITY AGREEMENTS: -Honest over polished — real over curated -You don't have to be okay here.
