Caregiver Activity of the Day

I have talked a little bit about caregiver burnout, and how necessary it is to make time for yourself. I want to talk more about what activities you can do for a few minutes each day to relieve some stress. Writing is a great activity that does not take long at all to do.

One thing I urge you to do today is go out and buy a journal or a notebook. Your first acitivity to do in your new journal is write down what your feelings are today. Expressing your feelings on paper is a very healthy exercise. Writing down your feelings can help you discover some things about yourself you may not have known. It is also a good way to vent, if that's needed, without hurting anyone's feelings.

I will be posting a new activity for you to do in your journal each week. Please feel free to post any ideas or comments you have.
