Healing the Healer: Prevent and Overcome Compassion Fatigue 
It happens all the time…
- Is your work taking a toll on your life?
- Are you giving too much to others and have nothing left for yourself?
- Has food become both your solace and your stress?
- Do you go into isolation just to escape from the world and all the demands?
- Do you find yourself burnt out, having nothing left to give to anyone?
You could be a therapist, social worker, or special education teacher. Maybe even a physician, nurse or clergy. Or you could be a loving family member, a daughter or a son. What we all have in common is “compassion fatigue”~ When we start neglecting our own care and needs, caring for those who are sick becomes overwhelming.
It doesn’t have to be that way anymore. You don’t have to suffer in silence. We have created a program just for YOU.
This workshop will refreshingly engage the professional and the lay caregiver with practical tools, strategies and guidance to combat the effects of “compassion fatigue”.
Participants will come to understand the problem and how to prevent its emergence in their personal and professional lives.
Join us for the inspiration and motivation you need to bring vitality, joy and balance back into your life.
This workshop will be an interactive, participatory program in a relaxed and creative way to help you discover:
1. How to establish clear-cut goals for yourself and your patients/clients
2. How to set and maintain healthy boundaries – learning to say “no” with compassion
3. Eliminate guilt . . . when enough really is enough… emotional blackmail
4. Protection from burn-out – Importance of taking breaks
5. How to ask for and receive /accept help/guidance/support
And So Much More! See what a difference an afternoon can make.
