Life Coach and Author Hueina Su, President of Denville, NJ-based Beyond Horizon Coaching, shares self-care and burnout prevention strategies with senior care providers in a workshop titled  “Intensive Care for Nurturers: Keys to Reduce Stress and Nurture Yourself As You Care for Others.” 

DENVILLE, NJ — April 15, 2010 – More than fifty senior care and home care providers learned self-care and burnout prevention strategies from the Nurturer’s Coach Hueina Su in a recent workshop titled “Intensive Care for Nurturers: Keys to Reduce Stress and Nurture Yourself As You Care for Others.”

“Medical professionals, senior care providers, caregivers, moms and other nurturers face special challenges such as coping with stress and burnout from giving too much, trying to remain compassionate without disturbing their emotional balance, or maintaining their own inner peace at the face of loss and grieving,” says Su, an internationally known keynote speaker, life coach and the author of Intensive Care for the Nurturer’s Soul: 7 Keys to Nurture Yourself While Caring for Others.

“I have been an advocate for self care and nurturing for caregivers. Intensive self-care is not being selfish and it’s not a luxury, but rather an essential practice for your survival and overall well-being,” says Su, president and founder of Beyond Horizon Coaching based in Denville, New Jersey.

Brought up in a family of four generations of doctors and nurses, Su understands deeply about stress and how to deal with it. She started her first career as a registered nurse, and has more than 20 years of experience in nursing, coaching, counseling, speaking, training, nonprofit management, sales, and small business.

The workshop attendees are members of Senior Resource Group comprising of home care providers, registered nurses, social workers, assisted living administrators, and professional who serve the seniors and their families from Morris, Essex, Bergen, Union, Passaic Counties of New Jersey.

In the presentation Su shared her personal story, insights, tips and strategies with the audience on how to recognize the signs and consequences of chronic stress and Self-Care Deficiency Syndrome, how to Stop, Drop and Roll out of overwhelm, how to maintain emotional well-being as nurturer, and how to create more time, take care of themselves without feeling guilty or selfish.

Su’s message was well received by the audience. “Senior Home Care Services is proud to have Hueina Su speak at our Senior Resource Group meeting. I have worked with Hueina as my life coach and invited her to speak. She presented Intensive Care for Nurturers to our members. The stories she shared and the consequences of lack of self-care really hit home for us,” says George Koenig, host of the workshop and President of Senior Home Care Services Inc. in Morristown, NJ.

“Her presentation was warm, informative, and provided actionable strategies like breathing routines that we can all use to reduce our stress and invigorate our minds and body. Everyone was impressed with her expertise and serene demeanor. We are thankful to have a resource like Hueina who helps support our care professionals perform at the highest level of performance while maintaining an optimal life balance,” Koenig says.

Susan Pinto, Owner of Montclair, NJ-based Home Well Senior Care of Essex/Morris, says “I learn how to take time to catch my breath. That’s an important part of exercise.”  This message was also echoed by Michael Schwartz, Director of Operation of Aquinas Healthcare in Springfield, New Jersey and Mark Gallagher, Program Director at Hackettstown Regional Medical Center in Hackettstown, New Jersey.

“Hueina’s  stress relief presentation was really great and helpful,” says Michele Lynch, publisher of 50 Plus Monthly based in Succasunna, New Jersey.

Client Service Representative at Senior Home Care Services Rachel Frett says, “Balance in your life is very beneficial to what you do and how effective you are.”

“Hueina’s analogy of placing the Oxygen Mask on yourself first so you are able to help others was right on target and hit home with your audience.  The audience was definitely engaged throughout the presentation.  Hueina Su has a wonderful presentation style and delivers a relevant message,” says Renee S. Grasso, Owner of  Be Safe Plus LLC in Lake Hiawatha, New Jersey.
