Resum:
Professionals in the field of education are the most valuable resource of the educational services system and must protect themselves in order to care for others. They have to deal with self-improvement stories on a daily basis but also with pain and frustration which make them question themselves. Educators must be conscious of the effects produced, when working in environments involving psychosocial risks, in order to be mindful and proactive instead of coping outside of their comfort zone. By not doing so, ill-being settles in the work teams and in the end it impacts on the people they care for. For the purposes of this study, five theoretical practical proposals are presented: interdependence, collective intelligence, focusing on subjectivity, acquiring a molecular perspective of situations and finally social supervision as a means to help others and oneself. These reflections are the result of a systematic practice and of a study carried out during the supervision of 10 teams and 60 professionals in the psychosocial field. We will contribute to generate ideas, strategies and implement resources to propose a culture of care in global terms: towards the people we care for, towards teammates and towards oneself.
