This workshop explores the emotional experience and reactions to our environment. We will deepen our understanding of the natural emotional responses to our life’s circumstances. Together we will tap into a greater awareness and cultivate emotional intelligence to best respond in given scenarios.
There is a complexity in understanding our human experience, feelings and emotions, are related and point to various aspects of our emotional responses. Our emotions are bolstered by unconscious or arising needs that may be made apparent at any given moment. Awareness of our emotional reactions allows us to reorient how we function and interact with ourselves and others.
Mapping Emotions has benefit for everyone.
The deeper understanding of emotions and ensuing feelings is beneficial for those of us in the caregiver role, for the dying, and their loved ones. This is also beneficial as we navigate through grief. The Mapping Emotions tool helps us identify the sensations and the meaning we make of them and explore the thoughts and feelings underneath our emotions.
Something could be said about the physiological experience or how emotions are experienced in the body, such that through this process of exploration, we are able to reconnect with the messages from our bodies that speak to our needs at any given moment. Greater emotional awareness allows us to guide and support this exploration for others.
LEARNING OBJECTIVE
Learners will be able to contextualize what emotions are versus feelings and identify natural responses and thoughts related to these emotions.
Learners will identify their own emotions and participate in an interactive guided imagery technique. This model can be implemented as a self-care practice, as well as when working with the dying and their loved ones.
Together in this workshop, we will practice discerning, processing, and managing our emotions and feelings using an interactive guided imagery technique. Come prepared to share and connect.
Join us to uncover ways to explore your own emotions and translate the process to help your clients safely explore their emotions

EDUCATORS
Our growing team of educators draws from decades of work as end-of-life doulas. Their insights and stories from the bedside capture the essence of doula work and inspire attendees to walk with them on the same path. They also have extensive backgrounds in trauma-informed care, nursing, social work, spiritual care, grief, the healing arts, adult education, and hospice administration. Every one of them has also completed or is engaged in, our doula certification process.
