Description
Are you caring for a loved one, often feeling stressed with little time to yourself? Would you like to regain balance and enjoy life? Most carers fall either mentally or physically unwell from the pressures of caring. So many issues can arise. Sara cared for her husband for 13 years after he was diagnosed with a brain tumour. After falling ill from the stress of caring, she then discovered new ways not only to regain her health, but to start enjoying life again. This book can help anyone caring for a loved one. It gives practical know-how, guiding you to make the right choices to safeguard your own health and wellbeing whilst caring. There are so many ways that you can make positive changes to your daily life – the smallest of tweaks can make the biggest of differences, radically transforming your life and the life of the person you care for. In sharing her own stories and the case studies of other carers, Sara helps you discover the crucial steps to wellbeing whilst caring, so that you can enjoy your life – guilt free. This book is an inspiring and empathetic guide to staying healthy and happy whilst caring. We all deserve to enjoy our lives – and so do you.
