Kristi, Jenny and Cathy were selected to present their workshop: Preventing Caregiver Burnout: What’s in YOUR Courage Tool Kit? at the Ohio Children’s Alliance 46th Annual Spring Conference: Rise Up! on Friday, May 6 from 9:00-10:00 a.m. ET.

This workshop begins with Cathy leading a breathing meditation focusing on fear and courage, as an embodied experience, including breathing technique, light movement, and guided meditation. She will share the science behind the benefits of breathing and meditation in navigating stress and the trauma of caregiving. The second part of this workshop is a presentation facilitated by Kristi and Jenny focused on building courage. As professional and family caregivers we need courage in many different ways which have a significant impact on how well we manage stress. Sometimes we need to find the courage to have healthy boundaries, and learn to let go, allowing for insight into your abilities, strengths, and the importance of the task.
