info_outlineHey Transformational Teacher: What do you do after a long day inside the classroom to rejuvenate yourself?
Here are a few things I do:
1. Have a moment of silence to myself.
2. I love to listen to music. I even play instrumental worship songs throughout the day at times.
3. At times I go to the gym and read, listen to audio book, music, podcast while on the exercise machines
4. I enjoy watching something funny. (Laughter is good for the soul.)
5. I make sure that I take time show gratitude to God daily for Him helping me make it through the day.
6. Spending time with God by myself right when I get home which has been awesome. (Some days I have to push past the tiredness and frustration. When I do push through in the end I am so thankful and feel better.)
7. Taking a little time to relax before moving to the next thing I need to do.
