Feeling like your teacher brain has 47 tabs open at once? 🧠💥

This winter break, give it a reset. ❄️✨

We're sharing a 4-week Meditation Reset just for educators — designed for real teacher life:

🕒 Just 12 minutes a day, 5 days a week

🧪 Science-backed and inspired by neuroscientist Amishi Jha’s work

🧘‍♀️ Guided by a former classroom teacher + meditation instructor (hi, I’m Katie! 👋)

👥 A supportive cohort of fellow teachers walking through it with you

Here’s how it works:

They kick off over winter break, when your brain finally has space to breathe

They'll lead our live kickoff call and first meditation

Each week, you get a new recorded meditation to use on your own schedule

You’ll return to that week’s practice 5 times to build familiarity, consistency, and calm

Can’t make it live? All sessions are recorded

This reset is designed to:
🧘 Calm your nervous system
🎯 Retrain your attention
🌫️ Clear the mental fog
⚖️ Help you return to school feeling grounded, centered, and ready

If you’re craving a calmer, clearer teacher-brain in the new year, this is your sign. 💛

Human Studies lesson was anything but ugly… even if the sweaters were! 🧥✨

Students have been learning how clothing choices connect to Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs (physiological, safety/security, and self-esteem) and how the Elements & Principles of Design guide what we wear. Today, they put that knowledge to the test with an “Ugly Sweater Design Challenge.”

🎲 Students rolled dice to determine different design elements
🎨 Used a variety of materials to bring their wild sweater ideas to life
☕ Sipped hot chocolate while they worked for the full cozy creativity vibe

Swipe through to see their over-the-top designs and how a fun activity can still connect to real-world learning, confidence, and creativity! 💡📚Houston High School
