Creativity

Crafting should be an escape, not another thing on your to-do list. Lean into what truly excites you.

Spiritual Reflection

Dear God, in times of uncertainty and doubt, help us find strength in service, light in love, and hope in community. Guide us to be healers, unifiers, and bearers of grace, so that we may move forward with faith, courage, and compassion. Amen.

Here are my tips:

  1. Every morning, remind yourself of who you are beyond your caregiving role.
  2. Keep a journal or diary of your feelings and frustrations, not just notes about bowel movements and meds.
  3. Take longer drives when you take your person to their appointments, and listen to music.
  4. Drink good tea or something to comfort yourself for just a moment during the day. 
  5. Use as many laundry, grocery, delivery services as you can afford.
