Dear Colleague,
Whether your passion for nursing is fired up or has fizzled out, Empowered Nurse, Enlightened Practice is for you! It has been created to empower, energize, and enlighten you for future
success.
It is being offered in a setting that will provide an opportunity for individual disengagement (detaching from everyday work and life), relaxation, reassessment and planning, and recharging.
Workshop objectives:
Honor, value and celebrate your career path and each other
Heal and renew the healer within
Build confidence and personal power
Become a catalyst for positive change in nursing
The conference will consist of morning workshops, led by me, and optional evening gatherings. There will also be plenty of free time to enjoy the tranquil surroundings.
You'll spend time with me and other like-minded nurses at one of my favorite places in the
world - Miraval Resort & Spa - a place of healing, peace, and beauty. You'll be able to use Miraval's NEW Life In Balance Spa; attend Miraval signature offerings, classes, and workshops; and work one-on-one, if so desired, with Miraval experts.
The Miraval experience, combined with our conference workshops, discussions, individual and group exercises, and sharing will surely give you more joy,
confidence, focus, personal power, and clarity.
I've visited Miraval annually for the last eight years, and the experience has been transformative and life-changing. I want you to experience what I have. I will be your personal guide while there, helping you to make the most of your stay.
Nurses are a major part of the life-force on this planet. We are healers, teachers and nurturers. We tend to the health and well-being of the planet whether at
work or not. We are "on-duty" 24-7 regardless of where we work or if we even work at all. We bring light into dark places and give something of ourselves to everyone we come in
contact with, even in casual encounters. We are wellness warriors.
Because we are usually focused on others, we sometimes devalue our contributions, lose sight of our sacred mission, and fail to honor our own well-being. Even
if you are diligent about self-care and good at valuing your talents and contributions, it is still important to periodically step back and take time out for a
tune-up of mind, body, spirit and career.
The time is Now. The place is Miraval. The focus is You.
I would be honored if you would join me! Donna
