| Brief Description of Presentation<\/th>\n\t\t\t\t\t | What if the problem is not that you care too much or too little but that you've been going about compassion all wrong?\r\n\r\nInfluenced by a life spent in service to others, Jennifer has uncovered that compassion is something we do not need to train in. Compassion is composed of multiple non-compassion elements, none of which require us to sacrifice our own well-being or the well-being of those we love and support. Those who are most driven by the motivation to alleviate suffering-who have even built careers around it as healthcare professionals, educators, social workers, therapists, and more-are confronted daily by obstacles to acting with compassion. \r\n\r\nThe biggest obstacle is right in front of you, and Jennifer will ask you to give up who you think you are in order to see it. This is a full participation (experience over education) workshop that takes us on a fascinating body-mind-soul journey that aims to pique more interest in making sense of and understanding how we have organized ourselves around suffering. Avoiding the obstacles of compassion separates the average therapist from those achieving clinical excellence. \r\n\r\n\r\nObjectives:\r\n\r\nPart A\r\n\r\n\u2022\tA basic comprehension of the complex human body state of compassion.\r\n\u2022\tA neurological autopsy of the brain and understanding the nature of our perception of suffering.\r\n\u2022\tAn expansive, cellular, and experiential understanding of the soma. Using the elixir of the body to stabilize empathic resonance.\r\n\r\nPart B\r\n\r\n\u2022\tEngage in an actionable and revolutionary way to attune to the contingency space between us. To manage the overwhelm of emotional contagion in the face of suffering. \r\n\u2022\tSomatically understanding how we organize ourselves to fit into our environment and manage, cut off from, or absorb the suffering of others.\r\n\u2022\tExpanding compassion to a non-referential state of whole body-mind awareness to stabilize our therapeutic outcomes and make an effective impact without burnout and overwhelm. \r\n<\/td>\n\t\t\t\t<\/tr>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t |
