Nonprofit Leaders: you are invited to be the guest of CharityEZ and The Blue Lotus Center as we explore various strategies to help prevent Compassion Fatigue on October 2nd. Because of the generosity of our sponsors Mars Family Foundation, Town Bank and Godfrey & Kahn, there is no cost to attend! Compassion fatigue is a significant issue facing many nonprofit leaders. Prolonged exposure to the suffering of those we serve can lead to emotional exhaustion, physical challenges, and reduced empathy that negatively affects our ability to help others. Prioritizing your own well-being is essential for maintaining your resilience and impact; and is critical to sustaining the ability to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others. You are invited to join us as we share specific tools and strategies designed to help you sustain compassion and your positive impact: Staying Present: Cultivating Mindfulness & Embracing Joy While Supporting Others with Julie Luther Inner Calm: Cultivating Peace Through Intentional Movement with Michael Larson Establishing & Honoring Healthy Boundaries: Supporting Others with Compassion While Preserving Your Own Well-Being with Daniel Miller Peaceful Communication: Using Nonviolent Language to Deescalate and Maintain Harmony with Jennifer Vondracek We invite you to reach out to julie@marsfamily.org with any questions you may have.
