Healing and Healer Burnout

Rinpoche’s Teachings on Healing and Healer Burnout

Why do some people heal and others don?t? Healing love reduces the fear that blocks healing. In addition to healers, this teaching will help every parent who does not understand why their child will not listen, every manager who needs to keep a professional distance while motivating employees, and every teacher, tied hand and foot by rules, who wants to reach their students.
The dynamics of ordinary immature love, ordinary mature love, and ordinary altruism are discussed and differentiated. Who are these types of love directed towards, and what dynamics and strategies characterize them? Healing love is more than these. It is an altruism that is not exclusive to one set or group of living beings. Methods for developing healing love in one self are discussed. At the culmination of the day, Medicine Buddha permissions are given, and exercises using Medicine Buddha practice in providing healing while acting from the motivation of healing love are done.

Overcoming Burnout – Stages of Healing

When a victim of burnout is in recovery, what are the stages of healing that can be recognized and encouraged as signs of health, confidence, and abilities returning? The goal should not be recovery from burnout, but perfect health. How do you take yourself or help your client to the next step of health from whatever stage you are in?
