There is little as valuable to the individual as a precious piece of jewelry. Whether in gold, silver, platinum, bronze or copper, that locket from dad, or your wedding ring, I.D. bracelet or class ring often holds higher sentimental value than it could ever confer intrinsically. While these personal effects impart emotional wellness to their owners, the metals from which they are built can impart skin benefits — when formulated into products.

 In competitive times like these, the most important sale business professionals can make is the personal one. And the best "sell yourself" tool is your online bio. No marketing piece does a better job of spelling out your "special-ness" than an effective profile on your website, in social media and elsewhere. Your bio is your most versatile, vital and valuable self-promotion vehicle. Problem is too many professionals misuse their bios — or, worse yet, fail to use them at all.

Garrison Institute looks a little like Hogwarts. The retreat center is housed in a former monastery amid tranquil green hills overlooking the Hudson River, 60 miles north and a world away from New York City. Inside the airy chapel on a recent summer afternoon, about 35 educators from the U.S. and at least five foreign countries are seated quietly, shoes off.

She's one of the co-founders of Cultivating Awareness and Resilience for Educators, or CARE for Teachers.
