I'd like to start a open discussion for all us care givers to type out little things we do each week that is helpful to ease the care giver stress and avoid burnout. We may just give and get good little tips and advice. I'll go first: each week I take time for myself by watching a movie I wanted to see, a manicure, go to lake and feed ducks and walk!! Just a few things I enjoy!! Walking each day is a great way to relive stress and depression.
is one of the hardest things to do and know what you are going through. Some things are just hard and there's no easy out. Love to you and yours and may God comfort you.
I also have a friend that does Reiki - a japanese healing. It worked wonders! Going to try Vini yoga which is suppose to be healing for older people and their joints. As I feel better, I can cope better.
