Explore this opportunity that fosters mental wellness and self-care; registration deadline is September 20



Join nurse, dancer and creative caregiver Tara Rynders, MFA, BSN, BA, RN-BC, in the exploration of movement, art, and personal reflection around the art and science of caring for oneself and others. As a truth-teller and disrupter, embraces vulnerability, relationship, confession, and collective care as means to end burnout and its detrimental effects which acutely impact our patients of color. Drawing from her experience as a nurse, a creator, and a griever, Rynders invites you to collectively honor our shared humanity by creating a culture nested in self-compassion, curiosity, creativity, and joy. This workshop is an invitation to come alongside artists from all over the world, who are trained in nursing theory, to care for oneself through truth-telling, self-compassion, creative expression, performance, and ultimately, the celebration of pleasure.
