Self Care for Caregivers
WHEN: Saturday 30 May, 2.30pm – 4.30pm
COST: $40
This 2 hr workshop is designed to give you a break from caring within a trauma informed, non-judgmental space. You may also learn more about what you can do to support yourself. Caring is rewarding and profoundly meaningful but but working with aging, disability, mental health issues, trauma or illness can be taxing on your own nervous system. You are worthy of support and respite.
Who is this workshop for?
You may be caring for parent, child, sibling, partner or caring in a professional role.
What’s involved?
We’ll spend a little time discussing the warning signs of burn-out and what the fight, flight, freeze, fawn and flop responses look like in adults. But this isn’t a lecture. We’re here to experience how to manage stress and regulate our own nervous system. We’ll incorporate gentle yoga, restorative yoga, self-compassion meditation and breathing techniques.
Creating safety
You won’t need to divulge anything about your situation but we do understand that sharing can be powerful. If you chose to share with anyone in the group, we ask that you to keep details general and are mindful that others may not have the capacity to carry your story.
Your teacher, Naomi Harris has 50hrs of further training in Yoga for Trauma, Mental Health & Body Image and has lived experience caring for a young person and an older person with dementia.
