I'm a substitute teacher, while completing my classes for my masters', and needless to say, it's very stressful. I have had near-fights break out in my classroom, trouble with classroom management (I wouldn't frighten a flea), and feeling like I'm not doing any one thing well, professionally and personally.
What I am asking is, how do you transition from work with all its stresses to home life, without breaking out the fudge ripple or snapping at your partner? I feel like I bring too much of work home with me, and then I'm in for a stressful evening with little time for myself. Then it's go to bed in dread of the next day. I need a change.
How do you let work stay at work, and then get calmed down for bed? I don't have anyone, so that avenue is out
.
On the plus side, I do enjoy yoga and meditation to "warm up" in the morning. It's worth getting up earlier for that.
