CALM Presence

Course Overview

In working with people who experience distress, feelings of fatigue, burnout and stress can seem unavoidable. However, by finding ways to nourish our own wellbeing – cultivating our own innate capacities for mindfulness and compassion – we can discover that not only are we better able to cope, we can realise a more sensitive, wiser and more responsive approach to the people we work with. Relationships are at the heart of the work we do and growing our strengths of calmness and presence brings about the possibility of Reciprocal Flourishing.

This course has been developed for those who have completed the CALM Core Theory Course and wish to explore strengthening our capacities for self-awareness, self-regulation and self-care. For all of us in a care-giving or supportive role the focus on ourselves can seem uncomfortable at first; but the more we resource ourselves, the more energy, availability and presence we have for others.
