GUTS FOR CAREGIVERS

Ways to Care for Yourself as a Caregiver

As a caregiver, you may be skilled in providing essential, meaningful care for others — but when it comes to self-care, it may feel unnatural or even selfish. On the contrary, caring for yourself is an instrumental part of avoiding burnout as a caregiver and being able to help others thrive.

Join Joey Donovan Guido, author of the book, GUTS: Getting Under The Surface to Prevent Burnout, Reduce Stress & Boost Resilience, and host of the GUTS podcast, as he facilitates a thought-provoking program that focuses on improving your mental, physical and emotional health. Together, we’ll delve into the connection between caregiving, mindfulness, self-care, and relationships — including the relationship we have with ourselves and the people we care for. You’ll leave this workshop with a better understanding of concepts like acceptance, resistance and fear. You’ll also learn best practices for managing your well-being through awareness, the “Yes, And” philosophy, and many sustainable self-care practices.

Caregivers will learn how to:

  • Observe their thoughts & emotions, learn to manage them more effectively and be less overwhelmed by them
  • Implement sustainable, customizable self-care strategies for improved mental, physical and emotional health
  • Better understand what resilience is, and how practices like the ones in this program can help strengthen resilience in sustainable ways
  • Use their breath as a powerful tool to release stress
  • Meet themselves where they are without judgement & begin to strengthen resilience
  • Understand that thoughts & emotions are things we experience — they are not who we are
  • Manage negative self talk
  • Identify and let go of resistance, while learning how to practice acceptance more often
  • Practice mindfulness to lessen distraction and be in the moment
  • Incorporate the “yes, and” philosophy into their personal & professional lives, providing them with a solutions-based approach to any situation
