How the Self-Care Pyramid Saved Me From Burnout Without Quitting Teaching

Erin Sponaugle introduces Next Chapter for Teachers and shares the self-care practices that helped her recover from severe teacher burnout and become more balanced over the past 10 years. She explains that boundaries are necessary for self-care and offers a free burnout reflection download and a related video on setting boundaries without guilt. Erin teaches her “inverted pyramid of self-care,” describing levels from self-indulgence (treats like shopping, chocolate, or TV) to self-maintenance (doctor’s appointments, physical wellbeing, yoga, walking), self-control/self-regulation (leaving school at school and managing emotional energy), self-awareness (identifying personal needs like quiet, space, creativity, and resisting guilt-tripping), and self-empowerment (using choices to regain a voice, grow, and make positive change, which may include leaving the classroom). She invites viewers to subscribe, comment, and watch related videos released weekly.
