Description

Mindfulness, Self-Care, and Gentle Breath and Movement Practices for Healthcare Professionals to support their Well-Being**

As healthcare professionals, we devote much of our energy to the well-being of others. However, we often overlook our own self-care. Maintaining a healthy routine can help reduce Stress and prevent Burnout!!!

Brief Overview: Practicing mindful self-care through Zen involves paying attention to the small details in our lives. This approach combines mindfulness awareness with a deep commitment to self-care. It teaches us how to elevate our true selves through Zen and sustain that growth through mindful self-care. Zen provides the framework, while mindful self-care functions as the ongoing maintenance. During our time together, Jill will equip you with practical tools and exercises to practice independently and with other participants throughout the course, along with easy-to-understand meditation, mindfulness, and mindful breathwork and stretching exercises. Achieving this requires daily mental training through practicing home self-care routines, much like creating a fitness plan for your body. Join us in exploring a healthier you by focusing on your well-being, which may help reduce stress and prevent burnout.
