With Melvin Escobar, Louije Kim, Kat Roubos, David ShihChun Wu
This daylong is offered to those that are in service to others, bringing together healers and caregivers to learn and relearn selfcare practices. The metaphor of “first securing one’s own oxygen mask before helping others” is foundational to being of true service. The facilitators of this daylong are professionally trained psychotherapists. We will offer strategies for surviving and thriving based on the timeless wisdom of the Buddhadharma. Through meditation practices and interactive exercises, we will explore how to manage vicarious trauma and burnout to support healers in their own healing.
