Move beyond Burnout, and Make a Difference without Sacrificing Yourself will help all types of service providers understand and move beyond burnout and compassion fatigue while discovering a renewed energy for serving others. Everyone can learn how to thrive and find fulfillment in their vocation as they make a positive difference in their homes, workplaces, and communities. Elizabeth Bishop, the creator of The Conscious Service Approach™, provides the tools to build resilient responses to the demands of all types of care work, both paid and unpaid.

Perfect for all stages and modes of career development, from education through retirement, and from direct service to management, Conscious Service is the solution to the problems many service providers are afraid to name. Don’t fear burnout. Learn how to move beyond it with this pragmatic and insightful guide.

Elizabeth Bishop has tackled a topic that needs to be talked about more often. Should be required reading for all professionals working in human services. Accessible, relatable and practical - every chapter is like its own guidebook. Highly recommend this book.

It's hard to imagine a more readable and beneficial book for care workers. Elizabeth's writing is easy to follow and clear and her book is full of helpful tips and methods. I'm so very happy I bought a copy of this book and will likely buy more for some of my friends who could use it. 5 stars!!!

She writes as tho she is speaking to you personally Although I am not a service provider I am learning several tips on connecting with my personal consciousness. Enjoying this book!

Easy to read and digest, and important messages throughout. As a social worker, I wish I had these skills 25 years ago. A beautiful testament for how we can keep the joy and fulfillment in our roles and our deep desire to help.

Elizabeth has made this resource a joy to read. It shows many real life situations that I can relate to. Her humour and realness while working with difficult topics and situations are truly appreciated. I recommend this book for anyone who is called to care for others in any capacity.
