It’s no secret that healthcare professionals and caregivers of all kinds are stretched beyond their limits. We can’t look to healthcare systems themselves to give us the care and attention we need, so where CAN we go for support (and answers)? 
Don’t miss this week’s episode with guests Koshin Paley Ellison and Chodo Robert Campbell of the New York Zen Center for Contemplative Care. 
In this episode we cover:
 
<ul>
<li aria-level="1">Why it’s important to look beyond the identified patient to the invisible web of caregivers</li>
<li aria-level="1">The realities of caregiver burnout and stress</li>
<li aria-level="1">The one practice you can do even - and especially - when you have no time to care for yourself</li>
<li aria-level="1">Do you stay or do you go? Making decisions for yourself inside this healthcare system catastrophe</li>
</ul>
