PRACTICAL ADVICE, EMOTIONAL SUPPORT, AND A PATH TO SPIRITUAL SOLACE

One in five American adults is now a caregiver. And many have found themselves unprepared for this difficult and emotionally taxing task. As a caregiver himself, and executive director of Zen Caregiving Project, Roy Remer was inspired to write Zen Caregiving to help support the emotional burden many caregivers experience and to augment this essential component of our healthcare system. This motivational, therapeutic, and practical book covers:

- the four components of the Zen Caregiving approach -- mindfulness, compassion, loss literacy, and self-care
- tools for expanding compassion, avoiding burnout, and finding comfort
- the value of grieving and processing loss
- advice for preparing medical directives and end-of-life arrangements
- how to create intimacy with oneself to prioritize self-care, one breath at a time
