@Joseph Hendershott, Ed.D. posted:Great question! Our book, "Supporting the Wounded Educator: A Trauma-Sensitive Approach to Self-Care" was released in February, 2020 and is specific to understanding one's own exposure to trauma/secondary trauma and how that contributes to personal & professional wellness. One whole chapter is geared to "professional self-care strategies" with the goal of cultivating thriving work cultures. After all, self-care is really ineffective if we are walking into toxic work cultures every day, right? We've had several groups begin book studies (there are 'Reading, Reflection, & Discussion Points' at the end of each chapter), and the feedback about the depth of conversations happening has been exciting! The book is available through Routledge at https://www.routledge.com/Supp...p/book/9780367429287. It's currently on sale, but you can also use code ADC21 to get 30% off list price. Our website is www.hope4thewounded.org if you'd like to get a feel for our work, as well. You can find a free survey on the home page that many have used in their workplace to gauge different thoughts (21-Question Survey on Empathy, Education, & Wounded Students). Hope this helps!
Thank you so much!
