Target Audience

This event has been planned for clinicians, therapists and counselors, nurses, psychologists, social workers, marriage and family therapists, psychiatric nurses, substance use counselors, vocational rehabilitation counselors, and all others interested in understanding how to experience Zen as a lifestyle with a path towards mindful self-care.

Description

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 caring for ourselves. It teaches us how to elevate our true selves (through Zen) and sustain that growth (through Mindful Self-Care). Zen serves as the framework, while Mindful Self-Care acts as the maintenance. Achieving this requires daily mental training through healthy home self-care practices, similar to how we create a fitness plan for our bodies.
Jill White-Huffman merges her Mindful Self-Care curriculum with Zen teachings to create "Experience Zen as a Lifestyle." This approach to mindful self-care helps individuals enhance their well-being by teaching them strategies to prevent and reduce stress and burnout through mindfulness techniques.

It goes without saying that you must take care of yourself before you can take care of others.

Continued Professional Development Description: As health care professionals, we often expend energy on others’ physical maintenance. Too often, we neglect to focus on our self-preservation, which often turns into stress and, ultimately, burnout. Burnout is a growing concern, affecting not only the well-being of individuals but also the quality of client care.
This course aims to equip healthcare professionals with practical tools to establish a personal routine that acknowledges, prevents, and manages stress and burnout. Join us in discovering a healthier version of yourself as you learn to prioritize your well-being. This will enable you to regain your joy while maintaining your career in the healthcare profession.
