For many years, we have been involved with caring for the carers, especially professionals who have become exhausted and burned out in their work. We have worked to find the space that would allow carers to let go of the ties that bind them into roles which have come to bring them more harm than good. From the Preface

Scared Space is about pathways towards right relationships for individuals, groups and organisations; restoring wholeness, healing and caring.

Scared Space explores the large body of evidence illustrating the high levels of stress and burnout among professional and lay carers. The book shows how the causes lie not just in pay or conditions of work, but also in disconnected relationships and a failure to integrate the scared and spirituality into health care.

It is this disconnection and loss of a sense of the sacred that is addressed in this book a separation that keeps people not only from relating to each other but also to themselves and that which is beyond the self. Without these connections, this right relationship, scared space cannot reveal itself, and without an awareness of and reverence for the presence of the sacred, true healing and caring cannot emerge. Scared Space details the problem, but also sets out realistic, practical solutions.

Offers practical strategies for dealing with stress and burnout and ways of reintegrating the sacred into our personal and working lives

An essential guide and resource for all healthcare professionals at all levels of study and practice particularly nurses, midwives, complementary therapists and doctors and all those who support them such as chaplains, counsellors, occupational health workers, human resource managers and health care planners and policy makers
