Healing Emotions for Caregivers

Effective caregiving requires both technical and emotional skills. While caregivers deal with the inevitable emotions of those they care for― anger, anxiety, sadness and guilt ― the same realities show up for the caregiver as well. This series offers insights and practical ideas designed to give caregivers a hand in both understanding and working with those we care for. The goal is a more reciprocal approach to caregiving and care receiving. In rebalancing the caregiver relationship we will recognize what is most deeply human in each other.
