Download or read book Watering the Soul written by Keli Gooch and published by . This book was released on 2019-04-17 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You are a caregiver. You work tirelessly every day, but there is one thing that's pretty much guaranteed that You are probably NOT doing.... TAKING CARE OF YOURSELF! Watering the Soul is a 91-day journal focused on mindful, purposeful writing prompts and activities for a caregiver like you. Research shows that many caregivers are at risk of developing depression, anxiety, high blood pressure, heart disease, and even post-traumatic stress. Often caregivers get lost- caught up in the mix of endless doctor's appointments, physical exhaustion, intense pressure and guilt for the myriad of emotions that build up. Even the history of receiving bad news, frequent hospital visits, or the lack of socialization with other people- the isolation that sometimes comes along with caregiving can just be overwhelmingly too much. This journal contains 129 pages of writing prompts and activities based off of my own experiences as a caregiver and my profession as a mental health therapist. It is not another thing to add to your 'to-do list'. Watering the Soul includes weekly focus words. 6 days of the week are filled with daily writing prompts centered on recording your thoughts, hopes, and dreams, as well as your thoughts on filling the role of caregiver. On every 7th day, there is an actionable step such as guided meditation, guided imagery, and focused relaxation techniques. This journal is here to help fatigued caregivers refocus, recharge, and discover how to start living truly refreshed again.
