About the course:

Strategies for Avoiding and Recovering from Practitioner Burnout

Course Description: 

In this session, the participants will learn:

Module 1: Start at The Beginning

In this module, we will support you to clarify your work and life values, goals, and vision. You will also realistically consider your energy and resources, and bring self-awareness to how you like and need to work for long term sustainability. Learn to use behavioral and career assessments to determine our strengths.

Module 2: Your Resources

Advancing your career requires mental focus, energy, and endurance! Your physical, mental, and emotional resources are essential to your career success and longevity. How can you reach more patients with your unique skills, experience, and presence? We will also look honestly at your financial, time, skill, and support resources.

Module 3: Stress and Productivity

While we can’t magically erase all of your stress, there are many strategies for mitigating stress to protect your long term health. And, while stress management is ESSENTIAL. It’s not enough

You must understand the ROOT CAUSE of your stress. Perhaps it feels like you can’t change much about the most common stressors in health care…

• Your crazy work hours
• Getting your patients to be more motivated
• Lack of time for lunch
• Too much paperwork
• No time for self-care or exercise

You’ll be surprised, but once you consider your work - your calling and your skill set - within the full context of your life, you’ll find that you have more power over your stressors than you think.

In this module, we’ll go deep - get to your stress root cause, create systems in your life for buffering and balancing your stress, build your Web of Support, and align your work with your life to lower your stress load for the long term - while keeping you healthy enough to care for others for decades to come!

Module 4: Movement, Brain Focus & Energy Maintenance

Most healthcare professions are active, but that doesn’t mean that you’re getting the movement and specific exercise that you need each day. And, if your job is sedentary, you may struggle even more to get enough activity in each day.

Getting enough (and not too much!) of the right kind of exercise each day can make a MASSIVE difference in your fitness, brain focus, and (especially if your job is physical - like physical therapy) even your ability to keep working for the long term.

In this module, it’s time to get accountable to your movement plan!

We’ll also talk efficiency and focus! How is it that some people get SO MUCH DONE each day, and others struggle to finish the never ending paperwork at the end of each work day? Why do some healers need to work through lunch most days, while others are able to take the time for a noon workout and a nice post-workout meal?

If you struggle with forgetting details, brain fog, or memory challenges, this module is for you.

Finally, in Module 5, we remember that pleasure is not optional.

Your work is essential, and there is no dress rehearsal for life. Without pleasure, even running the business of your dreams, being a witness to the miracle of healing can become just another job.
