FINDING BALANCE - A COURSE FOR FAMILY CARERS

FINDING BALANCE - A COURSE FOR FAMILY CARERS

Carers get very used to putting others ahead of themselves. They often look
after others and lose sight of their own needs and then wonder why they have
so little energy, have trouble remembering things and why their life seems
so lacking in pleasure and joy.

This workshop will be an enjoyable opportunity for carers to come together
and consider:

* Why it is so important to nurture ourselves in encouraging and
healthy ways

* How cherishing ourselves is one of the keys to better
relationships, better health and a happier self.

* Taking positive steps towards understanding our own needs and
desires

* Finding a balance between caring for themselves as well as others
without feeling guilty or overwhelmed.

Facilitator: Carol Guy, a registered nurse with qualifications in Mental
Health and Life Coaching.
