About this Event

You know about self care.

You may or may not have a “self care plan”, and you do your best to get a good night’s sleep, eat healthily, do your job, see your family and friends, and do all the things you know will help … but you’re still exhausted and deep in brain fog.

Maybe you just can’t stop thinking about that patient, the last child you nursed, or that incident you attended to?

Maybe you do all the right things, but you’re constrained by the policies you work under, the organisation you work for, the workload … all the things out of your control?

I’ll bet you’re good at your job, but somehow you’ve become detached and feel like you’re on autopilot.

You want your mojo back and to feel like you again.

Here is the problem...

Your self care plan is helpful when you’re doing OK. But when you’re overwhelmed, overworked and anxious, you are in survival mode. You’re in too deep to think ahead. And it’s way too hard to enact that self care plan. In fact, even thinking about it can feel exhausting.

What you need is a way to create space and connect back into yourself.

Because aspects of music, imagery and connection with your body are processed in the same parts of the brain as the stress response, they can also help to shift feelings of overwhelm, stuckness and brain fog.

Discover how you can develop practices of calm, nurture, connection and rest, and create greater clarity, understanding and a more supported space for yourself.
