Course Description
Step away from the intensity of clinical practice and into a highly curated, evidence-based event, set in a tranquil location under an hour from New York City.
Developed in collaboration with the Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine, this immersive experience is grounded in the principles of Integrative Medicine and will help you understand how chronic stress and trauma affect the nervous and immune systems, as well as overall metabolic health.
Through hands-on activities and deep peer discussions, you will transform theoretical concepts of the psychoneuroimmunology of stress, trauma, moral injury, and burnout into practical strategies for resilience and metabolic health.
More importantly, you will build a personalized toolkit to navigate stress, foster metabolic health, and nurture the social connections that form the foundation of a long, healthy life.
This program offers a rare opportunity to pause, reflect, and recalibrate alongside a community of peers who understand the demands of modern medicine.
This retreat offers two pathways; Basic (experiential retreat only) and Advanced (Basic + a 12.5 credit online CME course on Healthcare Professional Well-being from the University of Arizona, Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine).
