Have you ever wanted to:
- Ask those questions that keep you up at night?
- Venture out of the isolation of caregiving? And, be part of a group of kindred spirits who “get it” and understand “what we are going through” and are pro-actively seeking answers in how to care?
- Share and learn “best practices” tools, tips and takeaways that will create more peace and ease in your caregiving?
- Laugh out loud and acknowledge the lighter side of caregiving while learning at the same time?
- Shout, “where’s the roadmap to make sense of all this?”
Well, here it is.. Welcome to…
Walk this journey with the wisdom and focus of the mountain lion and the heart of a giraffe. This unique, (indoor) workshop literally “surrounds you” beginning the moment you receive your backpack “to walk the journey and convert your currency at the Caregiver Bank.” You will pause at “colorful road stops,” “brimming with generous opportunities for you to interact and gently practice new ways of being in exercises, while you share, learn and deepen the how-to’s of caregiving in light-hearted exploration. The journey also honors YOU with a toast and ceremony, the sacredness of who we are as caregivers and our choice to serve. You’ll even be a participant in a jeopardy game – get your hand ready for the buzzer!
The workshop starts at that moment, when you became a caregiver and takes you through Ten Road Stops:
- How we make choices
- BAM – The impact through the disorientation
- Finding your “why,” your rights, and your guiding North Star in caregiving
- Understanding and speaking the “language of caregiving” as the power shifts to you
- Clarifying your roles, responsibilities; building in self nurturing, compassion and resiliency and, reaching out for support.
- Exploring the new world of legal, financial, medical issues and how to begin conversations
- Tapping into the hidden meaning of emotions
- Being with grief
- Conversations at the Death Cafe
- Our transformation.
