Rather than separating spiritual life from professional practice, participants will be invited to reimagine their caregiving role as a form of contemplative vocation. Drawing from Zen Buddhism, Catholic mysticism, and psychodynamic reflection, the workshop encourages healthcare professionals, chaplains, and students to cultivate spaciousness, attentiveness, and compassion amidst the pressures of modern care systems.
