Thank you to those of you who participated in the ”Caring for the Caregiver Workshop.”
We tend to wait for that “Eureka!” moment when we realiza we’ve succeeded as caregivers but failed in caring for ourselves – then try to take steps to regain our health. I care for the frail elderly daily and some days as their lives slip toward twilight, I can literally feel my energy being pulled away. The decision to be in a caregiving profession should immediately be followed by a decision to care for ourselves. The principles of NurseFit can give anyone in a caregiving profession the means to start doing this!
I can attest to the power of yoga for caregiver fatigue. I work at a children’s hospital on Friday nights. It takes a lot out of you. After a long night, I hit yoga class. It’s good for the body and the soul. Kim’s approach makes a lot of sense and I’m sure there are thousands of nurses who could benefit.
