""Rachel writes with such passion and authenticity. Her love for students, colleagues, and the teaching profession shines through every page of The Summer Recovery Guide for Teachers. This book is encouraging, heartfelt, and a beautiful invitation to all of us in education to pause, breathe, and refocus on ourselves after a busy school year. Through thoughtful reflection questions and affirming truths, Rachel reminds us that caring for ourselves is an essential part of caring for others. This book is a gift to every teacher."" Alison D'Angelo, M.Ed., Library Media Teacher ""I love the topics in this book and how they focus on building yourself up over the summer months. I love the message that I can spend my energy wisely so that I can fully refresh myself during my time away from students. The daily activities give a structure for 'me' time during the summer, which is super important to me. I am grateful for this book!"" Christine Johannsen, Elementary Educator ""Summer is such a blessing and a precious time for anyone in education. This book helped me slow down and reflect on how I can take good care of myself. I love what it has to say about prioritizing rest and using mindfulness to help recover from the stress of the school year."" Melanie Sillanpa, School Psychologist
