You may have heard the term mindfulness, but have you practiced it before?
By boosting mindfulness in day-to-day living, a caregiver can do practices that boost resilience and enhance overall comfort, ease, peace, and tranquility, no matter how chaotic and intense the caregiving duties are. Larissa Carlson
Kim Hegwood and Larissa Carlson will talk about how you can practice mindfulness even when caring for someone with dementia. And furthermore, why you should add this to your daily routine.
1. What is Mindfulness and is it different from meditation?
2. Why would this be helpful for a caregiver to practice?
3. What would you say to the caregiver who says, “I don’t have time for one more thing!”
4. How can a caregiver get started with mindfulness practice?
5. How can you help caregivers who want to learn mindfulness?
6. Can you lead us through a mini mindfulness practice for caregivers right now?
