Step into a transformative and interactive professional development experience that uses the creative, body-centered approach of InterPlay to connect, empower, educate, and refresh chaplains navigating the stress and challenges of our profession. This event offers up to 12 hours of Continuing Education Credits and blends cutting-edge research with embodied practices to explore how to transform moral suffering into moral resilience.

Why InterPlay?

InterPlay is a proven modality that unlocks the wisdom of the body through creativity, playfulness, and connection. By engaging in simple, interactive activities like movement, storytelling, and shared reflection, participants will cultivate a deeper sense of resilience, self-awareness, and community. These embodied practices offer a powerful way to address the stress and moral suffering that healthcare professionals experience.

Learning Outcomes

During and/or after the retreat, you will be able to:

    Design a ritual that addresses grief and incorporates improvisational movement, music, storytelling, and/or stillness.
    Name at least three potentially morally injurious events (PMIEs) that frequently occur in healthcare settings.
    Explain the difference between PTSD, trauma, and moral injury.
    Describe how InterPlay practices can enhance collaborative treatment models such as active listening, building rapport, meeting your clients where they are, and patient-centered spiritual care.
    Reflect on your challenges as a chaplain and describe or demonstrate how at least two BodyWisdom Practices can support you in doing your work sustainably.
    Develop greater resilience in yourself and provide tools to help cultivate resilience in those with whom you work.

In addition, you will:

    Connect with yourself and others in a safe, supportive space that fosters reflection and healing.
    Empower your professional practice with InterPlay tools to navigate professional and personal challenges creatively and effectively.
    Learn about current research and practical interventions to help transform moral suffering into resilience.
    Refresh your mind, body, and spirit through the healing power of rest, play, movement, and community.

This event will also have the opportunity for reading CEUs.
