The Power of Purpose & Healing in Story
Dr. Joel Carter
In his presentation , The Power of Purpose & Story in Healing, Dr. Joel Carter will explore with us the important and impactful role of storytelling in caregiving. In addition to providing therapeutic support for the seniors and others in our care, storytelling allows our patients and clients to identify and recognize their life’s purpose, simply by relating to us important and meaningful stories from their lives. This potentially newly discovered sense of purpose can have profound impact on well-being, even for people who are reaching end of life. Dr. Carter will demonstrate ways we can learn to help learn to help our clients find meaning as they look back upon their lives from the perspective of the stories they share – bringing peace and comfort particularly to those who may have felt their contributions in life were few. He will discuss how healing the human spirit can have a profound and positive effect on physical symptoms as well as overall well-being. And he will help us to see the power of presence and the impact of the connections we make with our clients no matter what role we play and what stage of their life journey they are on. Exchanging stories also provides the opportunity for those providing care to discover their own life purpose.Sponsorship Opportunities
