Mindfulness Workshop for Healthcare Professionals
With John Carbone
February 8, 2019
With the increased pace and often conflicting demands of practicing medicine, health care professionals are increasingly subject to the effects of internal and external stress. Mounting evidence shows that mindfulness practice can reduce job burnout, anxiety, depression and stress, improve focus and empathy, and increase well-being for practitioner and patient alike.
This workshop will provide a conceptual framework for mindfulness, a variety of tools and techniques for mindfulness practice, along with ample time for guided mindfulness practices, dialogue and Q&A. All healthcare professionals are welcome, including those new to the field.
