Description: This study explored the causes of teacher stress, teachers' perceived stress, and the selfcare teachers and staff at the elementary level are taking to minimize their stress levels. In addition, the study looked at the impact of an 8-week mindfulness intervention to assist in alleviating stress. This study looked at the impact of distance learning due to the Coronavirus pandemic, and some of the obstacles teachers must overcome to keep themselves mentally healthy. A mixed-methods research approach was selected for this action research study because the data that was collected and analyzed within the research was both quantitative and qualitative data. Findings indicate a relationship with the amount of time teachers implement mindfulness activities and their corresponding stress levels. Correlational analysis also suggests relationships between teacher demographics and perceived stress levels. Recommendations for future research include further investigation with the duration of the intervention as well as completing the research during a school year that does not include distance-learning.
