Self-Care Tools for High-Impact Teams
Presented by CalTrin
Participants will learn practical, body-based self-care skills they can use in real time—during a shift, between hard interactions, and at home—to reduce stress load and recover faster. This session teaches quick nervous-system resets (breath, posture, orienting, movement, and micro-recovery routines) that can also be adapted for clients and families. We’ll also name the organizational risk of untreated burnout—shutdown, compassion fatigue, and turnover—and identify a few team-level habits that protect sustainability.
Learners will:
Identify common ways stress, burnout, and secondary traumatic stress show up in the body, including fight, flight, fawn, and freeze responses in high-impact care work.
Practice real-time somatic tools—including breath, posture, orienting, grounding, resistance, and movement-based strategies—to support regulation during work, in the field, and after difficult interactions.
Create a practical self-care plan for before, during, and after hard moments, using body-based tools that can support recovery, reduce stress load, and increase sustainability in caregiving roles.
