Several officers of this chapter recently had the opportunity to stop and reflect on how they could improve their own health with the help of a great new book from KDP that outlines a program focused on the health and well-being of educators who often forget about their own health at the cost of being there for everyone else in education.

We, as educators, owe it to our families, friends, colleagues, students and mostly to ourselves to take care of our health so this is where you are encouraged to take time out for yourself to do what is right for you.

Be Healthy and Be Happy!

I bought this book at Convo and have made this convenient pocketbook size book a must have when I run out the door so when I am waiting in line at the bank, waiting at the doctor's office or even resting at the pool after my workout, I can read up on other tips on how to improve my health for me and everyone around me!  I love this book and all of the great supports in it!
