In Part 1 we discussed and listened to stories gleaned from direct practice with people at end of life and the power of Presence, Equanimity and Appreciation. We practiced Deep Listening and explored how to support fundamentally important ways of being with those we care for.
In this Part 2/ 5 hr session, we'll explore and dive into Compassion, the difference between Sympathy, Pity and Compassion and other important topics, including Ethical Engagement, being with diversity, maintaining people's dignity and the Patient's Bill of Rights.
Again, we'll build on my 30 yrs of direct experience and the wisdom of everyone in the group - drawing on our lived experience as the foundation from which we can best serve ourselves and the world.
Its best to have attended Part 1 of "Bring P.E.A.C.E. to Those You Care for...but not required, as we'll briefly touch in on and review those as we begin Part 2.
I’ll share stories and printable handouts and guide us through practical skills gleaned from 30 yrs of direct experience with dying persons and their families. My experience includes 5 years as faculty for the Upaya Zen Center's Being with Dying Program, a specialized degree in Hospice and Grief Counseling from the N.M. Kubler Ross School, 15 years training hospice volunteers, 6 years offering Spiritual Care and Bereavement to hospice patients and designing and presenting end of life curriculum in the U.S., Dubai and India.
I'm honored and humbled to have been recently ordained by Roshi Joan Halifax as a Buddhist Chaplin in the White Plum lineage. My work continues to be about spiritual growth as a part of our human legacy and the ways "Bringing P.E.A.C.E." speaks to meeting human needs, how those ways of being can apply in diverse cultural settings and is not about holding any specific religious belief.
This offering invites Nurses, Hospice workers, social workers, mental health professionals, Chaplin, doulas, professional and family caregivers and others who tend to suffering at the end of life or care for those with chronic or terminal illness.
WELCOME!!
