Mindful Birthing, Mindful Living: A Weekend Self-Care Workshop for Perinatal Healthcare Providers
As care providers for expectant, birthing and new parents we are called upon to be fully present as we attend to our clients' needs with empathy and compassion, even in the midst of the stresses in our daily lives. Through mindfulness we can remember our deepest intentions and reconnect with those aspects of our work that truly nourish and sustain us. In this workshop we will learn about the Mindfulness-Based Childbirth and Parenting Program, how mindfulness can be an essential skill for ourselves, birthing families and explore ways to cultivate in ourselves the very resources we encourage in those we serve: inner strength, resilience, calm and self-trust.
