I find that some days I can look after myself more easily than others. Today, I went to a fitness class, and it helped. This past year has been a struggle, and I generally feel depleted. I still have awhile longer in this caregiving situation, and want to make a greater effort to do something to enhance my well-being every day.
My neighbor and I have agreed to exchange information in order to look out for each other, and we're meeting soon to do that.
Baby steps.
You’re on the right track by exercising. You will feel so much better being physically active.
I am no longer a caregiver for my parents. The stress of caregiving definitely takes a toll on us.
Music always helps me to unwind. Doing fun things with my friends and family brings me joy.
I love to cook and I am trying my hand at growing green peppers.
I make jewelry and enjoy sewing. I am addicted to certain podcasts. It seems like there are podcasts on any topic that we are interested in. I listen to them when I soak in the tub or in the kitchen cooking.
