AWE METHOD
Through the AWE method, Lisa Baylis helps organizations create cultures of resiliency, self- compassion, and awareness. Educators develop wellness habits for themselves first, and then their families and classrooms second. This creates a ripple effect of wellbeing.
By learning the “ABCs” of wellbeing, educators dig deeper into the WHY, the HOW, and the WHAT we need to do to create school systems that support our wellbeing, and that of our students.
Past attendees continually attest to Lisa’s authentic and emotionally engaging speaking style — all with the type of lightness that can illuminate a room.

- What mindfulness is and why is there a revolution going on with this word and concept
- Learn the components of self-compassion and how inviting loving/kindness into our world creates a happier and more resilient self and school

“Lisa spoke at our association’s Professional Development Day. Though she addressed over 1400 educators about self-compassion, attendees felt seen and spoken to as individuals. Lisa embodies this important message through personal stories, genuine care, and the warmth she brings with her to the stage. Working with her was an amazing experience, one I would happily recommend.”

“Lisa’s full day presentation to our school was fantastic. The presentation fully recognized the need to promote the wellness of our staff as well as teaching us ways in which we can connect with our students from a trauma informed lens. She is extremely easy to work with and caters her presentations to the needs of the audience. I would highly recommend her to any other schools looking to engage in trauma informed teaching practices.”
