Listen Later

In the fourth episode of our "8 Dimensions of Wellness" podcast series, we focus on occupational wellness. Our guest is Julia Cowan, chief executive officer at Vibra Rehabilitation Hospital of Denver.

We'll discuss:

  • The ever-growing need to care for ourselves in order to care for others
  • Why it's important to understand your own stress levels, have mechanisms for dealing with stress, and know how to work as part of a team
  • The role of healthcare providers in helping patients improve their occupational wellness
  • How to maintain positivity, even on difficult days
  • Why you should practice gratitude on a daily basis
  • The impact of goal-setting on occupational wellness
  • Breathing as a tool for managing your mindset and wellness
  • The four pillars that impact our health and wellbeing: exercise, sleep, nutrition, and stress management

    • Questions to reflect on:

    • As a leader, how can you create an environment to care for the caregiver?
    • Who can you lean on to help you find the positive when things are difficult?
    • What are you grateful for and how can you express that gratitude?
    • What fills your cup? What brings you joy?
