It is profoundly comforting to be part of a uniquely supportive monthly group where we are encouraged to practice self compassion within the framework of mindfulness. Nowhere else have I discovered such a safe and confidential place to be with coworkers, who know all too well the challenges of being a caring health care professional. If only all health care organizations could have Ellen leading a group like this, staff members would be better supported to do the hard work we do, the ripple effects would be far and deep, and I dare say that the world would be a better place.
