Welcome to the Laudio Community.

It's easy to get sucked into the drama of everything that's happening around us when we go to work every day. It's also easy to feel overwhelmed and underprepared. There’s changing technology, changing policies, changing people...the one constant is change. Sometimes it feels like the world is full of “villains” and you wish you had a superpower to counteract all the uncertainty and negativity.

LeAnn Thieman, speaker, author, and founder of SelfCare for Healthcare discusses the importance of caring for oneself; body, mind, spirit, and time.

Cynda Rushton, an international leader in nursing ethics and a member of the Grace team at Johns Hopkins, shares how to use the elements of grace to create the conditions for compassion during stressful and uncertain times. These elements of grace are an anchor and a resource that can be used in the midst of complexity and chaos.

During times of crisis, change, and uncertainty, it is commonplace to look to others for direction, security, and re-enforcement of self-worth.  Yet, within each of us, lies the ability to generate these positive feelings of “selfness”.

When was the last time you did something for you…JUST for you?.  Not shopping for the family or someone else, not family laundry, not helping with schoolwork, not going for a walk with the family, not preparing a meal for others even it was your favorite. Something Just. For. You!

Events like COVID-19 can increase stress; thus, taking steps to proactively safeguard your and your colleague’s well-being to foster resilience is essential.
