- Synopsis
- What if we flip the script on what it means to be a caregiver?Today, there are more than forty million family caregivers in the United States alone. Every one of them is searching for ways to approach this unique challenge. Positive Caregiving offers an alternative, affirming perspective to the overwhelmingly negative story surrounding caring for an older adult. This book combines principles of positive psychology, mindfulness, reminiscence therapy, and lifestyle medicine. Yet, the simple activity ideas within are designed to immerse caregivers in gratitude, empathy, forgiveness, love, and awe. Positive Caregiving encourages us to make the most of the caregiving experience. You'll learn how to: • Connect with your care partner• Foster positive emotions• Engage in activities that are both enjoyable and meaningful• Turn challenges into opportunities for connection and growthPositive Caregiving focuses on the emotional journey and personal growth inherent in the caregiving experience, helping caregivers embrace, celebrate, and honor this critical role in modern society.
