7 Caritas Coach Quotes I have become profoundly aware how my thoughts, my daily centering rituals, reflection, and acts of self-love impact my ability to demonstrate care/love for others. I have found that by intentionally listening and taking time to actually care about my co-workers that our relationships improved and our work became more collaborative and effective. I learned about intentionality and how powerful it can be. I feel like prior to this knowledge, I was just going through the motions of life. Today, I live each day more conscious and awake. The past six months of learning has resulted in profound changes in both my personal and professional lives. My relationship with myself now involves greater self-love, loving kindness towards self, and equanimity. I am better able to surrender, feel gratitude for my blessings and forgive myself and others. This has resulted in an overall improvement in my energy. 7

10 The Caritas Coach An advanced caring science practitioner who lives & embodies caring science & caritas in health care (Anderson, 2014).. Focuses on both people in a transpersonal relationship-coach & person being coached. Caritas coaching relationship is designed for working with patients/clients, colleagues, family Self-care is key to successful caritas coaching. 10

11 Caritas Coach Role Assumptions The person being coached is viewed as whole, capable, accountable, & the primary resource for solutions & goals The relationship between the coach & the coachee is an equitable & a shortterm human connection The coaching processes are based in inquiry & discovery, with the goal of maximizing potential Human potential is enhanced for both participants, the coach & the one being coached (Alleyne & Jumaa, 2007; Anderson, 2014; Cronk et al.; Hess, 2011; Johnson, Hong, Groth, & Parker, 2011; Tee, Jowett, & Bechelet-Carter, 2009). 11

12 The Caritas Coach Education Program will teach you more than skills & knowledge. CCEP will help you uncover your own inner guide and help you to remember your passion and love of caring for self and others so that you are able to heal and touch the human spirit that is alive in all of us. (Anderson, 2014; Axley, 2008; MacNeil & Evans, 2005; Watson, 2008). 12

13 Caritas Coach Education Program My personal journey By, Bernice Yale 13

14 CCEP has been a life changing journey for me as I learned about the theory of caring science. When I began the program I was inspired to pargcipate in this opportunity. I was an acgve Caring Science commijee member and I embraced the theory. ALer complegng all of the required readings and Learning AcGvity Guides (LAGs), journaling and commisng to daily self care pracgces, I am able to view situagons in my life as a Caritas Nurse. CCEP helped me learn about the deeper meaning of having a healing presence. CCEP opened my awareness by being open to the possibiliges of alternagve measures to produce healing or caring outcomes

15 By studying the 10 caritas processes and explaining the meaning of each process I was able to develop my emogonal being, self growth, self awareness and awakening. 15

16 CCEP commitment: The Learning AcGvity Guides and required readings have deepened my understanding of Caring Science and the theory of Human Caring. The LAG s help to focus on being. Doing tasks in an environment is like being disconnected from the pagent. Being is having a connecgon with the pagent. You are the environment. The difference between doing and being is by doing, a Nurse is doing tasks with the pagent feeling that the Nurse is authengcally present. It is possible to do both. As we care for a pagent in a skillful way we have the ability to pracgce nursing with the awareness of the pagent s environment, the caring space. There needs to be a balance between the tasks and the care. 16

17 By working in various situagons the nurse finds his/her own Being by showing compassion, loving kindness and has a deeper connecgon with the pagent. The pagent, therefore can feel this connecgon allowing healing to take place. CCEP helped me to be the environment As I pracgce self growth and self awareness, I am becoming more open to my pagents spiritual beliefs on healing. I now have a deeper understanding of caring and healing and recognizing that we are all connected and what we do and say affect us all. 17
