The wolf will live with the lamb,
the leopard will lie down with the goat,
the calf and the lion and the yearling[a] together;
and a little child will lead them.
7 The cow will feed with the bear,
their young will lie down together,
and the lion will eat straw like the ox.
8 The infant will play near the cobra’s den,
and the young child will put its hand into the viper’s nest.
9 They will neither harm nor destroy
on all my holy mountain,
for the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the Lord
as the waters cover the sea.

Passionné de grammaire, Francophile et prof de lycée, mais avant tout un fils du Tout Puissant. J’y ai passé pas mal de temps, et, en toute modestie, je suis une sorte de pro par ici. Alors, ça me semblait tout naturel de répandre mon expertise sur le web. Voilà le résultat : Comme un pro.
Nuance
Others have posted extensively, so I’ll add something that may not be popular but is crucial to remember:
Teachers, and the best ones at that, do and should draw boundaries. And a good public would endorse and s even support these boundaries. Because most know what it is like to labour under the yoke of an oppressive master, or an oppressive regime. And they know that even though it is normalised and widespread, it’s not right. Though there may be periods of excess, ongoing unsustainable workload is a sign either of uneven distribution or unnecessary additions (you all know what I’m talking about).
We know that if we all do our part, every aspect of life, not just our children’s education, would thrive.

Prioritise, restrategise and energise
The only way I think is to adopt as organic a routine as possible. ‘Unplug’ suggests the main problems lies in the connectivity brought on by digital technology. Before this, it would have been much more straightforward. Now, it is not, however is it still very much possible with some intentionality. You know what is a ‘must’ (e.g. work) and what is a ‘non-necessity’ (e.g. checking what’s new on Instagram), and even what is in between must and non-necessity (e.g. a work email that can wait till tomorrow). Part of your problem, as you know, is that you spend a lot of your already limited time doing things that fall into the non-necessity category. And that leaves less time for the things that truly matter – your spiritual devotion, your husband or wife, your children, your true friends.
So, you know the problem…and you know the solution. Now, will you act on it?
