CAREGIVER WELLBEING: In a world where selfless caregiving is considered a virtue, it's easy for the flames of compassion to flicker and fade.

But fear not, dear reader, for there is a way to keep that inner fire 🔥 of benevolence burning bright!

But keep pouring from an empty cup and soon all that’s left is compassion fatigue.

The secret to sustainable caregiving lies in self-care. By setting boundaries, managing stress, prioritizing physical health, seeking social support, and utilizing respite care, you can prevent compassion fatigue and continue to be the beacon of light your loved ones need.

It takes courage to know when to put your own needs first. Prioritize it. Otherwise…
