title: Celebrate midwifery--in Nepal.
abstract: This paper describes a workshop which was supported by the Iolanthe Midwifery Trust and facilitated in Nepal. The groups were introduced to the concept of emotion work in maternity care and ways of using reflection to manage it in themselves. A practical element was used, following the belief that engaging the right side of the brain in craft frees the left side to work optimally on logical/rational thinking.
