Join us for a free online event with Fellowship faculty member Sharon Salzberg, New York Times bestselling author and one of America’s leading spiritual teachers.
In this webinar, Sharon Salzberg and fellowship guiding Teachers Sensei Koshin and Sensei Chodo will explore the interplay of compassion and equanimity and how the practice of balancing them can sustain a healthcare practitioner’s open heart, ease burnout, and promote well-being while caring for the suffering world.
This webinar will be engaging and appropriate for anyone wishing to explore a contemplative approach to medicine, shifting from emotional exhaustion to resourced compassion. It will also provide an opportunity to ask questions about the next Contemplative Medicine Fellowship beginning July 30, 2022.
Building on our experience and expertise in contemplative education, in July 2021, we launched the Contemplative Medicine Fellowship —a year-long program specifically developed for physicians, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants who want to transform their role as clinicians and lead change in the culture of care.
Many clinicians entered the field of medicine to be of service to those who are suffering. Yet, in the brokenness of our healthcare system, it can be challenging to continually and wholeheartedly turn toward suffering day after day.
