What will we be learning?

Module One: 
Leave Work at Work
Transitioning from hospital to home

I know that it's hard to separate from everything you experience at work from your home life. From pain, sadness, grief, illness, loss, and death to relief, happiness, recovery, and birth, us nurses see it all. Yoga is about NOTICING which will help us recognize, acknowledge, feel, and move on from the emotional roller coast that is our everyday.

Module Two: 
One In, One Out Energetics
Loving restoration and recovery for your days off

"Self-care" might be trendy but self-love and self-compassion...now that's the hard stuff. Yoga teaches that we are all one. What we do to another, we do to ourselves. We can only care for another human with the same depth with which we care for ourselves. If you want to be a loving presence for your patients you will need to be a loving presence for yourself. 

Module Three: 
See The Unicorn, Be The Unicorn
Staying positive in difficult environments

How can nurses be a positive light in a difficult environment? How can new nurses find positive role models who bring loving energy to their workplace? What's an "expander" and how can experienced nurse be one? As you may have experienced in your own yoga practice...when you FEEL better, you BEHAVE better. And we all could stand to behave a little better.

Module Four: 
You're Not Inadequate, The System is Broken
Recognizing your worth as a caregiver

Has no one told you that you are a badass for even ATTEMPTING nursing school? I can't get over how many nurses have told me they feel inadequate in their current role. Some have said they doubt their knowledge base, some feel fine at work but when they get home they STILL struggle with feeling like they aren't doing enough! Yoga teaches that this self-sabotage is SELFISH and it needs to stop. If you feel inadequate you have been ill-prepared. We're going to change that.

Module Five: 
You've Witnessed Unthinkable Sadness and May Not Have Noticed
Emotional processing for difficult cases

The more I practice yoga the more I cry about my patients. True...but before yoga I was barely feeling ANYTHING about significant traumatic cases in which I was involved. I'm gonna take the good cry over that any day. Yoga teaches us that trauma is stored in our bodies and is not released until we deal with it. Unresolved emotions in the body lead to disease. Let's not do that.

Module Six: 
It's Not Burnout, It's Moral Injury
Recognizing system failure, toxic environments and overwhelm

Nursing literature has been talking about 'moral distress' for ages. It was in your NANDA/NIC/NOC. I swear! The current healthcare system is not necessarily set up properly to truly help humans thrive, especially its healthcare workers. We need to recognize and acknowledge what is and start to repair what's broken. And as you may have guessed the broken thing is not YOU!

Module Seven: 
You Have to "Go There"
Loving yourself through compassion fatigue

If you've ever so much as rolled your eyes (in your head behind a smile) when a family member asks for a water (ice or no ice?) you have experienced some level of compassion fatigue. Yoga teaches 'as within, so without' which means if you want to stay compassionate toward your patients you are going to need to develop self-compassion. 

Module Eight: 
Broken Backs, Sleepless Nights & Empty Calories
Ayurveda and physical wellness for nurses

Y'all know we don't always practice what we preach! If you're like me and use the thought of a creamy latte as motivation to get out of bed at 0345 then you know this soul assignment isn't easy on the physical body. Ayurveda is the sister science of yoga and is essentially the science of living! We will do a brief dig into how the oldest healthcare system in the world can help us today.
