Caregiving is not easy...but YOURS could be EASIER...
There are better ways for both of you to get through this. In the end, it is about lives well lived...and that, my friend, is about bouncing well. (That would be Gift #10 Bounce Well.)

You don’t have to be a perfect caregiver... in fact, it gets in the way.
Resilience in the trenches of love is the goal for which the Field Guide ( and its subsequent Begin Again) was written because caregiving – your efforts here –change everything. It matters.
Caregiving changes the planet but it also changed me—teaching some tough and tender lessons. As a daughter, I was in it, but now as a hospice chaplain I have some perspective on it... Perhaps, it should be titled...a daughter's field guide...but it's not just for daughters. This book is for anyone on the frontlines of love...and illness with another.
This is messy work and inherently possesses minefields of unresolved stuff. (Stuff being a technical term for stories that got baked in deep before we knew we were in an oven...)

A workbook and workshop on resiliency.(Sign up here). Begin Again is a subset of the Field Guide because when we are in survival mode and taking care of a loved one who is ill, we can only deal of so much... and the first eight practices will get you back to center...and a better day. Begin Again and the Resiliency Workshop are about practicing on the frontlines of love, and these first eight gifts for more resiliency. |

The Frontlines of love tends to slap us into survival mode, as it did me. When we are there, it's hard to think about more.
It's what Begin Again & its workshop is focused on: no Zoom needed, only email, a browser, and an Internet connection.
