HEAL

PROGRAMS FOR LEADERS IN HEALTHCARE

Brought to you by front-line physicians and the Zen masters who trained them

Our HEAL Series explores Zen leadership through the lens of healthcare. You’ll learn how to sustainably thrive and be a force for positive change in your patients, practices and systems.

We train “deep into the bones” how to face some of the most pressing issues for healthcare professionals. These courses apply the tools and “flips” in Zen training to overcome burnout and transform challenges into opportunities. Explore with colleagues how to become an instrument for healing patients and systems alike. We believe everyone in healthcare should take this course.

We dedicate a page of HEALing resources to you and your colleagues and encourage you to visit it often and share with colleagues. Even beyond that, we invite you into a way of being that is abundantly resourced and leadership that can help your healthcare system pivot to changes needed for these times.  

The heal series

You’ve been called to medicine to heal others
You’ve seen how the healthcare system isn’t up to the task
And now, you’ve been called to action

You’ll also learn resilience practices, breathing exercises, zazen meditation, ways to manage energy, and how to apply all this to your team or system.

You’ll also learn more advanced Zen techniques to work with your “shadow-side resistance” and its connection to fear, and how to “control the riot within” when faced with overwhelming situations.
