Caring for Ourselves - Dr Stephanie Dowrick 

Dr Stephanie Dowrick is an Australian writer, Interfaith Minister, social activist, and author. Stephanie presented at the Embolden Festival - responding to the following three questions applying lessons from her most recent book Your Name is Not Anxious to the support needs of aged care workers, advocates and care givers:
1. How do good aged care advocates, workers and carers value themselves in an ageist world where older people and those who work with them are less valued?
2. How do good aged care advocates, workers and carers take care of themselves or value themselves if they are working in an organisation where they don’t feel valued or heard?
3. What do you mean when you say we need to respond to stressful situations by taking care of our bodies first?
