SUMMARY:When Hearts are Stretched: Fostering Compassion Resilience Amidst a Pandemic Live Interactive Webinar
DESCRIPTION:For many care providers\, filling your own metaphorical cup is easier said than done. The spark that draws us to our work can begin to dim when faced with daily pressures and the mounting stress among our teams. Workplace dynamics\, time pressures\, personal stressors\, and repeated immersion in tough stories can take a toll. Then – we find ourselves a second year into a global pandemic. What anchors us during these times? What tools keep difficult conversations constructive and help us to productively manage the expressed anger and stress of others? How can we continually regenerate ourselves\, interact in ever-more effective ways\, and set up systems for healthy workplaces? Too often\, workplace wellness oversimplifies the complexity of systems. Together we’ll explore practical strategies related to individual employees\, collegial dynamics\, and larger work structures – with the goal of enhancing well-being and tools to address trauma and chronic stress. May you leave feeling inspired and empowered with tools to help you\, your colleagues\, and your employees keep on keeping on. \nThis playback is available to active NACG members only. \n \nMembers must be logged into the member portal to access the playback.
