Mindfulness for Health Care Leaders — towards connection and transformation

We find ourselves in a time of great upheaval and challenge in health care.  And yet, this is also a time of great opportunity. Nelson Mandela once said, speaking of the dismantling of apartheid, “Resistance to change will peak when change is imminent”.  Now is our opportunity to re-imagine health care through new eyes, and avoid simply re-packaging the existing paradigm. As the demographics and values of our communities and health care providers changes, our policies, education, administration, resource allocation and culture of medicine must evolve as well.

This process must begin with gratitude for what we have, reconciliation for the wounds and conflicts that have occurred,  and the ability to gather in our humanness in order to have courageous conversations…  Please join me in beautiful Tofino, BC,  to discuss Mindfulness in Health Care — how these human qualities of presence and compassion are actually what is most necessary right now in order to heal ourselves, and to begin this essential work of re-imagining health care in BC.

Through a combination of slides presentation, small and large group discussion and experiential practices, we will introduce tools of resilience and healing, cultivate connection with other leaders, and begin to lay the foundation for creating the change we wish to see in our health care system.
