Master class “Be healthy, teacher”
It is well known that the teaching profession is one of the most energy-intensive. Its implementation requires enormous intellectual, emotional and mental costs.
In recent years, the problem of preserving the mental health of teachers has become especially relevant. The modern world dictates its own rules: the demands from parents on the personality of the teacher and his role in the educational process have increased. Transformations in the education system also raise the bar: a creative approach to work, innovation, project activities, and pedagogical technologies are encouraged.
Not only does the academic workload increase, but along with it the neuropsychic stress of the individual and overwork also increases. Various types of overload are aggravated by numerous fears: fear of being abandoned, not finding support; fear of being unprofessional; fear of control.
This situation quickly leads to emotional exhaustion of teachers, known as «
emotional burnout syndrome."
Emotional burnout is
a kind of psychological defense mechanism developed by the individual in the form of complete or partial exclusion of emotions in response to traumatic influences. The professional activities of teachers are replete with factors that provoke emotional burnout: high emotional load, a huge number of emotional factors, the daily and hourly need for empathy, sympathy, responsibility for the lives and health of children.
“Emotionally burnt out” teachers are characterized by increased anxiety and aggressiveness, categoricalness and strict self-censorship. These manifestations significantly limit creativity and freedom, professional growth, and the desire for self-improvement. As a result, the teacher’s personality undergoes a number of deformations such as inflexibility of thinking, excessive straightforwardness, instructive manner of speaking, excessive explanations, thought patterns, and authoritarianism. The teacher becomes a kind of “walking encyclopedia”: he knows what is needed, how it is needed, when, why and how, and how it will all end. But at the same time, he becomes absolutely closed and impervious to any innovations and changes.
In addition, teaching teams are, as a rule, same-sex, and this is an additional source of conflict. As a result, the teacher becomes a hostage to the situation of emotional burnout, a prisoner of stereotypes of emotional and professional behavior.
This is very harmful for the teacher, as it gives rise to psychosomatic illnesses and increases the manifestation of chronic diseases. Among other things, many teachers do not have the opportunity to fully restore their health - to purchase quality products, to go on vacation to boarding houses or sanatoriums in the summer.

2 Goal: application of health-saving technologies in the educational process. Objectives: to introduce teachers to a variety of methods and techniques that have a positive impact on the development of children. -Dear colleagues! - Shout loudly and in unison, friends, Will you refuse to help me? (no or yes) Do you like children? Yes or no? You came to a master class, you have no strength at all, do you want to listen to lectures here? (No) I understand you. What should I do, gentlemen?

Health-saving technology is a system of measures that includes the interrelation and interaction of all factors of the educational environment aimed at preserving the health of a child at all stages of his learning and development. The goal of health-saving educational technologies is to provide the child with the opportunity to maintain health, to develop the necessary knowledge, skills and habits of a healthy lifestyle, and to teach how to use the acquired knowledge in everyday life.
3 It is important to understand that Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being, and not simply the absence of disease or infirmity (WHO). Health, as a subject of health-saving technologies, includes: Physical health. Mental health. Social health. Moral health. Thanks to the use of health-saving technologies, children experience: improved memory, attention, and thinking; increasing the ability for voluntary control; improvement of general emotional state; increased performance and self-confidence; motor functions are stimulated; reduces fatigue; the respiratory and articulatory apparatus develops; speech function is stimulated; Health-saving pedagogical technologies are used in various types of activities and are presented as: Technologies for preserving and stimulating health: dynamic pauses, active and sports games, relaxation, finger gymnastics, eye gymnastics, breathing gymnastics, invigorating gymnastics, corrective gymnastics Technologies for teaching a healthy lifestyle: physical education classes, rhythm, biofeedback (BF), problem-based games, communicative games, conversations from the “Health” series, acupressure self-massage, Corrective technologies: technologies for the development of the emotional-volitional sphere, behavior correction, psycho-gymnastics, art therapy, articulatory gymnastics, technology of musical influence, fairy tale therapy): - Let's stand in a circle! Let's get ready to work! Rub your palms, feel the warmth! Imagine that there is a small ball between your palms, let’s roll it! Now let’s share the warmth with each other: extend your palms to your neighbors! We have created a “chain of friendship”! Let's smile and wish each other good luck! “Journey through the Body” -And now I will tell you the poem, and you show yourself everything that is named. Something you can touch - stroke and massage!

Chin under lip That's what you and I know! Tasks for teachers Teachers are asked to choose the color of the booklet and describe the feelings associated with this color. Color therapy is one of the most promising and reliable methods of treatment and recovery. Color serves as a powerful stimulator for the emotional and intellectual development of children. Red provides health, physical strength, endurance, stability, self-confidence increases internal energy, promotes activation of hematopoiesis, normalization of blood circulation and metabolism. Orange increases the level of neuroendocrine regulation, helps overcome fatigue, blues, depression, uncertainty, anxiety and fear. Yellow, as a symbol of the sun, relieves stress and gives hope. Green promotes the rhythmic functioning of the heart, relaxation of the eyes, and has a moderate anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic effect. In addition, it helps with coughs, soothes, and has a beneficial effect on the functioning of the thyroid gland.
5 Blue helps with insomnia, relieves fears, causes a feeling of comfort and peace, relieves tension, lowers blood pressure, calms breathing. Violet has a gentle, stimulating effect. Gives strength in case of energy depletion, does not give room to depression, pessimism and powerlessness. (Depending on the chosen color, teachers are given the task of using health-saving technology) Red color of the booklet Finger gymnastics What does finger gymnastics give to children?

Squeeze out the lemon juice, add the drain and sand. We cook, we cook compote. (They “cook” and “stir” again.) Let’s treat the honest people. Game for developing breathing “Labyrinth” Increase the volume of breathing, normalize its rhythm Develop a smooth, long, economical exhalation
6 Activate the work of the lip muscles During the described games and exercises, constant monitoring of the teacher over the correct breathing is necessary. Equipment for the Game “Maze” (made from plywood with cut out moves) “ball” made of paper or foil (you can also use a table tennis ball). Rules for playing the game “LABYRINTH”: Several people can play the game in turn. Use your breath to guide the ball out of the maze. The labyrinth is designed in such a way that during the game the child has to blow with different strengths (during the game, monitor the child’s breathing: inhale through the nose and exhale through the mouth; do not puff out the cheeks) The game also reinforces the names of geometric shapes, colors, Offer self-massage of palms. The color of the booklet is green. Playful activities increase interest in physical education and sports. But not only outdoor or sports games increase interest, but also didactic games. I present to your attention the didactic manual “Flower of Health” Didactic game “Guess the sport from the display” Yellow color of the booklet The emotional sphere can be considered as one of the fundamental internal factors that determine the mental health of a child and the formation of his initially prosperous psyche. With the help of didactic games, it is possible to develop emotional well-being in preschool children. Didactic game “Guess the emotion from the display” Orange color of the booklet Relaxation is the ability to relax, it helps some children relieve tension, others concentrate their attention and relieve excitement. “Travel on a Cloud” Sit comfortably and close your eyes. Inhale and exhale deeply two or three times. I want to invite you on a journey on a cloud. Jump onto a white fluffy cloud that looks like a soft mountain of plump pillows. Feel how comfortable your legs, back, butt are
7 settled on this large cloud cushion. Now the journey begins. The cloud slowly rises into the blue sky. Do you feel the wind blowing across your faces? Here, high in the sky, everything is calm and quiet. Let the cloud take you now to a place where you will be happy. Try to mentally see this place as accurately as possible. Here you feel completely calm and happy. Something wonderful and magical can happen here. Now you are back on your cloud, and it is taking you back to your place in the classroom. Get off the cloud and thank it for giving you such a good ride. Now watch it slowly melt into the air. Stretch, straighten up, and again be cheerful, fresh and attentive. Let's do the “Snowman” stretch. Imagine that each of you has just made a snowman. The body is as hard as frozen snow. Spring came, the sun warmed up, and the snowman began to melt. First, the head melts and hangs, then the shoulders drop, the arms relax, etc. At the end of the exercise, the child gently falls to the floor and pretends to be a puddle of water. You need to relax. The sun warmed up, the water in the puddle began to evaporate and turned into a light cloud. The wind blows and drives a cloud across the sky. Blue color of the booklet MUSIC THERAPY The fact that music can change a person’s mental and physical state was known back in ancient Greece and other countries. Listening to correctly selected music increases the immunity of children, relieves tension and irritability, headaches and muscle pain, and restores calm breathing. Music acts selectively: depending on the nature of the work, on the instrument on which it is performed. For example, the violin and piano calm the nervous system, and the flute has a relaxing effect. Listening to “Fur Elise” by L. V. Beethoven Thus, the use of health-saving pedagogical technologies in work increases the effectiveness of the educational process, forms in teachers and parents value orientations for preserving and strengthening the health of children, and in the child a strong motivation for creativity and a healthy lifestyle.
