As educators, we start to feel the anxiety of returning to school towards the end of Summer. That’s when we’re tasked with action steps and the weight of preparing our classroom sets in. The restful initiative was perfect timing for me. I needed to be reminded that it is okay to pause, even when the to-do list seems daunting. She encouraged me that in order for me to be my best self I had to designate time for me, not wait for the time to be given to me. For this, I am thankful and I plan on making this a habit this school year! - Ms. Edwards, Teacher

As a former teacher, and current employee of a Fortune 500 company in education, I often feel overwhelmed by the demands of my profession. I love what I do, but sometimes I feel like I’m running on empty. That’s why I was refreshed to see the different types of rest defined and recommended by Michelle. I realized that I loved engaging in many different types of rest to help me feel less stressed, and just needed a reminder to consciously target each type. Focusing on all of these types of rest has helped me to be happier, healthier, and more productive. I highly recommend them to anyone who wants to improve their well-being and performance, especially teachers! Thanks for the wonderful reminder to take care of ourselves, Michelle. - Ms. Silver, Microsoft
A Note From the Creator
Michelle Singh
From One Educator to Another (and to the People Who Love Them)
Hi, I’m Michelle Singh—educator, professor, and founder of Restful Teacher®. After more than 20 years in education, I’ve seen firsthand what burnout looks like in brilliant teachers. I created this collection not as a luxury, but as a lifeline—one rooted in reflection, rest, and humanity.
If you’re here to support a teacher in your life: thank you. If you are a teacher: I see you. And you’re worthy of care, every single day. Rest isn’t selfish. It’s strategic. And sometimes, the most meaningful gift we can give a teacher—is permission to pause.
