FHK presents: Workshop series "Selfcare and Empowerment" for women's shelters and specialist counseling centers

Rest breaks, self-care, and recharging our own energy resources are often neglected in the support system – more so than ever during the pandemic. To further strengthen the support system for women affected by violence during this time of crisis, Frauenhauskoordinierung eV, together with coaches and mental trainers, has developed a 6-week online course program designed around the theme of “selfcare and empowerment”.

For who

With this workshop series, FHK invites residents of women’s shelters as well as employees of women’s shelters and specialist counselling centres to strengthen their own health in this time of crisis – namely nationwide and for free for all participants!

Important: To ensure that as many interested residents as possible can take advantage of this program, we encourage women's shelters to display the program, present it in their homes, or specifically approach residents who might be interested. Participation is also possible via smartphone.

It's all about this

We want to create spaces for recharging and exchanging ideas during these tense times. In a wide range of courses, qualified coaches and mental trainers teach techniques for strengthening yourself in crisis situations and managing the daily work of the women's welfare system in a healthy way. From self-care to yoga to creative writing, from resilience to self-defense, all of the online courses revolve around a strong self.

Here's how

All events will be held online via Zoom—some as block seminars on weekends, others as shorter weekly sessions. Participation is possible via laptop or smartphone.

Simply choose your favorite course and until 03 May 2021 at  https://www.frauenhauskoordinierung.de/veranstaltungen/selfcare/ by registering.Please note: To ensure interactive work and exchange, most course places are limited.
