Conscious Caregiving
regenerative weekend of mindful caring for the caregiver.
The natural ebb of life force is a genuine and precious part of human experience. Watching this can be like standing on the beach at night, while the tide rolls out - we feel lonely, and the effect is haunting and hard to fathom. As caregivers we face burnout, confusion, and resistance, often wondering how to respect the dignity of both ourselves and our loved ones. We will draw upon discussion, exercises, and mutual support to illuminate how we can care for each other in ways that in turn allow us to provide support to those in need. By learning how to enter, enrich and exit the worlds of those we look after, we can transform the path of caregiving into a journey of mindfulness and reward.
