a development wellness program should be implemented to themselves. It is then essential for establishing, implementing,

and sustaining effective teachers’ wellness program.


The Wellness program is designed based from the results

of the study on the level of emotional intelligence, extent of

personal resiliency and sense of well-being of teachers. The

area with lower mean scores and the variables that can greatly

affect the well-being of teachers are the factors that were given

due consideration in designing the program. The lower areas

are as follows:

 For Emotional Intelligence

 For Personal Resiliency

 For Sense of Well-being

Nevertheless, these areas will be improved through a

wellness program to help develop teachers’ efficiency and job

satisfaction. Effective teachers’ initiatives can reduce stress,

boost morale, productivity, and effectiveness in the workplace,
