The author posits that the key to sustainability for educators, both personally and professionally, rests in daily self-care. Overall well-being can be achieved by working through Abraham Maslow’s hierarchy of needs—(1) physiological, (2) safety, (3) belonging, (4) esteem, (5) self-actualization, and (6) transcendence. Readers are encouraged to develop action plans and strategies to meet their physical, emotional, and psychological needs based on Maslow’s hierarchy.
