The role of educators in public university is more than teaching in the classroom. An educator is responsible for teaching students and contributes to their learning development. In fulfilling the job responsibilities, many educators often ignore the practice of self-care and stress management. The lack of awareness to take care of the emotional aspects can lead to high levels of stress that affect educators' health and well-being, causing burnout, lack of engagement, job dissatisfaction, and poor performance. Having a good self-care and effective stress management may result in an excellent work performance and increases motivation in teaching and learning. Educators need to understand the stress phenomenon including the causes and effects as well as the coping strategy.
