An Inconspicuous Science-Based Antidote against Compassion Fatigue and Burnout

Saturday August 11, 2018 from 9:30 a.m. to 12 Noon

Overview of Workshop

Compassion fatigue and burnout disproportionately affect care-giving professionals placing them at significant risk as well as impacting their health and professional life.

When we are burned out, we are not in our optimal balanced state and our perspective narrows. We are not able to see the options and solutions available to us. We may wait for things to change on the outside (work load, external support, decrease in the challenges and complexities) in order for things to get better.

But are we leaving something critical on the table? Is there a hidden power leak that leads to a dysfunctional relationship with stress? Are we targeting solutions that will alleviate the symptoms but not address the cause?

Goals:

In her presentation, Tzeli Triantafillou brings science to life by re-acquainting you with your own amazing internal neurobiology and how you can use it to build an effective shield against burnout from the inside out.  You will be offered evidence-based practical strategies, which will give you a sustainable path to improve personal wellbeing and thus higher quality care for clients.  You will walk away with a renewed sense of self-awareness, self-compassion, and practical tools to protect you from burnout and compassion fatigue.

Learning Objectives:

  1. Describe three ways in which personal responsibility beyond organizational change can create lasting change in breaking the burnout cycle.
  2. Give examples of how the evolution of our nervous system contributes to our predisposition to chronic stress and burnout.
  3. Summarize how working with and not against the capabilities of our nervous system, can help us harness the power of neuroplasticity, to enhance wellbeing and work-life balance and satisfaction.

Presenter Information:
