JOIN US: Wednesdays’ Well of Wellness – Wellness Tips for Carers!

Caring for a loved one often means taking on new responsibilities. As rewarding as this may be, we need to remember our own self-care. We all know we can’t pour from an empty cup. So let’s take this opportunity to recharge our batteries!

Each week, we will be adding self-care tips to Wednesdays’ Well of Wellness.

Feel free to share your self-care tips too!

Together, let us draw from this Well of Wellness throughout the week so that we, as a community, can build up this support network in our Carers’ Corner.

No matter how little or much you are involved in your loved one’s care, we thank you and appreciate all your support!

Hello Family, Friends and carers!

I thought I’d revive this Wednesday Well of Wellness thread. I’d love to hear 1 thing you’ve done for your own wellness this last week. Even if it’s a small thing!

Finding the time to do something for ourselves can be so hard because we're the last on the list. But I'm wondering just how we can do it. Even just 5 minutes alone can help us connect with something that is just for us!

I thought it would be a good chance to check in with folks who’ve recently been talking about their own wellness - @tired_sisyphus you made this great post a few weeks ago on self-care. How is that going?

And also check in with some other members too! How are you going @Shaz51 @AFK @Krishna @Stargirl @Tinker67 @Determined @Emily82 @BPDFamilymember @maddison @Faith-and-Hope @ExhaustedCarer @Mumsy21 @Jane18 @Gracie170 @Kelkel @AC_ @Fran4 @Jennfromoz @Struggling_WM @scoz64 @Mylesh @Sev @Red78 @ckpineapple @SPE1 @Nubia

Take care everyone,

TuxedoCat

Love art as therap @Faith-and-Hope !

For me, this week I've not done much in the way of self-care but I love to draw and will have to get my pencils out over the weekend. It's so calming.
