Clinician (H)Arts & Wellness Conference

For Physicians and Advanced Healthcare Providers seeking space and time to rejuvenate themselves through art immersion, self-care, and self-reflection. This conference-retreat is focused on a unique combination of wellness and relaxation, art experiences, and journeys in awareness utilizing Narrative Medicine and peer-coaching techniques.

This year’s conference in beautiful Santa Fe features:

Flamenco Tablao dinner performance,

Japanese spa retreat and Izanami dinner/sake pairing,

and an evening at the world famous Santa Fe Opera!

Because hearts need (H)Arts…

we hope to see you!

Our conference-retreat has been designed by clinicians FOR clinicians, specifically to offer a unique combination of wellness and relaxation with art and self-reflection, to help rejuvenate and combat stress and burn-out. To that end, the conference has 8 Core CME Sessions, but much of the other offerings are at your discretion. We encourage you to participate in all our activities, but understand that individuals need time and space to decide for themselves what will help restore them. Each day begins with an opportunity for yoga in the morning, followed by breakfast and our Core Sessions which are finished by lunch. The afternoon is open for you to decide what you want or need to do, although we have many suggestions and offerings for “electives” that we will help arrange for you (even transportation!). We have several evening CME electives that are designed to offer education as well as an amazing art experience in Santa Fe. We have also hand selected a group of exhibitors & consultants that are available for you to visit in the afternoons, at your discretion, to assist with additional life stressors that affect many clinicians. We aim to give you a space for restoration, some fun and pampering, and also insight and tools for whichever future path you decide is yours!

Core Sessions are reserved for healthcare practitioners, but significant others/friends/partners can join other afternoon & evening activities. Registration includes purchase options for additional people.

However, we do encourage you to find alternative care for children. While we love our little ones, this conference is intended as restorative time for you and as a break from care-taking!

This conference is pending approval for up to 20 CME credits by the AAFP.
