On October 16, educator Wender Gomes led a Perifa Cuida awareness and care session at CEI Nova América, bringing together 46 educators for a moment dedicated to well-being, listening, and connection.
Set to the music “Marathas Kiss and Say Goodbye”, the gathering began with a stretching activity, creating a pause for presence and relaxation, followed by reflections on self-care, self-perception, and body awareness. The experience invited participants to turn their attention inward, recognizing limits, emotions, and needs within their everyday educational work.
The session also highlighted the importance of creating learning environments guided by compassion, and of nurturing care for emotions and mental health just as intentionally as we care for the body each day.
This action is part of Perifa Cuida’s ongoing initiatives, which continue to foster welcoming spaces and strengthen those who sustain daily practices of care and education within their communities. 💛
