Abstract

Educators play a crucial role in shaping future generations, yet they often encounter significant challenges related to stress, workload, and emotional demands. This study presents a comprehensive framework designed to enhance and sustain teacher well-being by integrating physical, mental, social, and professional aspects. Grounded in interdisciplinary research, the framework addresses essential factors such as workload management, stress reduction techniques, professional growth, and the development of supportive school environments.The paper highlights the significance of institutional policies, mindfulness practices, and community engagement in strengthening resilience and job satisfaction among teachers. Through both qualitative and quantitative analysis, it identifies key interventions and support mechanisms necessary to mitigate burnout and improve overall well-being.By contributing to the expanding body of research on teacher sustainability, this study offers practical insights for policymakers, school leaders, and educators. Emphasizing a holistic approach, the framework seeks to empower teachers, enhance their professional effectiveness, and cultivate a positive and nurturing educational environment.
