What you will learn

  • Course Summary

  • Practitioner burnout is rampant! Many burnout discussions focus mainly on mindfulness and self-care, when really the problem comes from trying to fit our whole humanity into too-small boxes that do not fit. Taking care of people stirs enthusiasm and brings meaning into our lives if it is done in the right way. That requires new ways of thinking about provider responsibility, consciousness about how we deal with technology, and an expanded definition of “healing.” This workshop will present a three-fold approach to burnout, offering expanded and dynamic lenses for how we think about coherence, resilience, sensory and emotional health, and spiritual well-being. These approaches come out of foundational approaches used in Anthroposophic medicine, an international integrative medical movement. These insights can be incorporated into any kind of healing practice.
    By the end of this course, learners will be able to:

    • Explain how Sense of Coherence influences a broad range of health factors, including stress, burnout, anxiety, work-satisfaction, family conflicts and mortality
    • Understand ways to differentiate the physiologic aspects of stress and recuperation, and how these relate to self-healing and homeostasis.
    • Explore how multi-modal sensing provides greater orientation and information in patient care, how this influences physiologic stress markers, and contributes to aspects of care that are not routinely accounted for in medical research.
