68 | Dreading Back to School? How to Recover, Reset & Still Enjoy What's Left of Summer
from Enjoy Teaching Again | Elementary, Teacher Burnout, Student Behavior, SEL, Classroom Management · host Elizabeth M. Peterson - Teacher, Arts Integration Specialist & Creative SEL Consultant
Is that back-to-school dread already creeping in? 😩 You're not alone—and you're definitely not doing anything wrong. In this episode, I share how you can balance true rest and a gentle reset before the new school year hits. We’ll talk about what to do instead of pretending school doesn’t exist (because spoiler: that doesn’t actually help), and how to ease into August feeling grounded, inspired, and even—dare I say—excited. I’m also giving you a peek into a few of my own favorite summer rituals (hello, Air Supply concert + henna on the beach 🎶🌊), and how you can create your own. Whether you’re fully vegging out or scrolling Pinterest in a panic—this episode will help you reset your mindset, take back control, and enter the next school year with more clarity and calm. ~Elizabeth Mentioned in This Episode: 👉 Sign up for the FREE Classroom Reset Challenge (July 22 & 23, 2025) theinspiredclassroom.com/challenge ✨ Connect with me!
