​courage."
~  Lao Tzu

Few roles in life are as challenging as caregiver. The Zen Hospice Project knows first-hand, and has been developing practices for loving, sustainable caregiving since 1987. In this afternoon workshop ZHP Executive Director Roy Remer shares how to care for yourself while caring for others.

Receive expert instruction, group discussion, and engaging exercises grounded in mindfulness meditation, the cornerstone of loving care. Return home better equipped to support those who rely on you. Sustain your own well-being. Preserve the relationship you share.

"The participants and leader all showed me the compassion I had lost for myself." ~ kathy s

Wow, I am so glad that I participated in the Mindful Caregiving workshop.  I was lucky to have the time that I did with my brother and doubly lucky to have had this workshop and some insight into how to be with someone who is dying.  I'm grateful to Zen Hospice and to Mountain Yoga for giving me these tools." ~ audrey w
