Celebrating the completion of my training in Mentoring and Supervision for Acupuncturists and Integrative Health practitioners and joining the Mentoring and Supervision Network...
The formidable women in the Network are running this training with great integrity and attentive awareness to all the aspects of our practice. (the non clinical parts)
To name a few : professional boundaries, burnout prevention, management of the inner critic, what to do in a crisis.
In order to support others we need to feel supported. How do we make sure we don't burn out ? Where do we turn when we feel overloaded ?
Mentoring is about being the best version of ourselves, by airing and articulating the obstacles to practice. We know most of the obstacles are mental / emotional and most of the time gentle reframing or deep listening are all we need to move on.
Mentoring and supervision sound like threatening words to practitioners that are unsupported - but the reality is that confidential disclosure, reflective practice and surrender to vulnerability does make us more resilient.
The process of being mentored and supervised creates a sense of deep connection.
Im feeling so grateful to be part of this and I'm looking forward to sharing these gifts with others.
