Brewing Wellness is a podcast created by the UFT Member Assistance Program to support the well-being of public school educators and the social-emotional health of their students.

Brewing Wellness is all about brewing the conversation with fellow educators. We cover everything from mindfulness meditation to confronting substance use – either your own, your students or a loved one — to navigating interpersonal relationships in challenging times.

A new episode is released on the final Monday of each month.

Listen to Brewing Wellness wherever you get your podcasts. It’s available on iTunes, Spotify, YouTube Podcasts and SoundCloud.
