Abstract
Self-care is an important and necessary part of a teaching career. Without appropriate self-care, our wellness can suffer and develop into burnout. Educators with burnout can have more absences, be more apathetic to our work, or create an unhealthy learning environment for students. To be well, our self-care cannot happen only at a micro-level. This chapter will examine educator wellness from the perspective of the ecological model. It is important to examine all of the impacts on our wellness and understand the control we can have over our systems. This chapter will look at the impacts of wellness and how to implement self-care strategies both at a personal and a university levels to reduce the impact of burnout.
