The Whole Self: Traumas of the Mind, Body & Soul in Patient Care

Presenter:
Kerri Brock, HNCP, CAPP, Splash Concepts

Learning Objectives:

The energy required to meet the demands of patient care is exhaustive. Combined with the constant barrage of vicarious and secondary traumas is the reality of those on the front lines. In the constant challenge and changing world of health care, the ability for practitioners on the front lines to develop self-compassion, self-care, and self-regulation skills, is as critical to patient care as the medical knowledge and technology used to improve and save lives each day. Are you fracking your system or are you flourishing?

In this interactive presentation we will explore:

– The impacts of stress and negativity bias on the mind & body through somatic experience
– The whole patient and the whole practitioner with human centered design activities
– How to build capacity for social and emotional learning through compassionate inquiry
– Strategies for self-reflection and regulation through positive psychology and somatic approaches
– How to use the four F’s of emotional composting to release stress and find new energy reserves
– Release limiting beliefs and old narratives to reframe new storylines for improved regulation and energy management
