Caring Without Losing Yourself

Caregiving can be meaningful and rewarding, but it can also be physically and emotionally demanding. In this one-hour session, we&rsquo;ll explore realistic ways to care for yourself while caring for someone else. We&rsquo;ll discuss recognizing stress and depletion, letting go of guilt, setting healthy boundaries, and finding small ways to restore your energy and well-being. We&rsquo;ll also make space for the complicated emotions that can arise in caregiving, particularly when relationships are strained or caregiving changes the dynamics between people. You&rsquo;ll leave with practical tools for sustaining yourself throughout the caregiving journey.
