Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who are caregivers? This book is intended not just for the typical caregivers we think of but for a whole realm of people who care for others. A caregiver can be many things, such as a teacher, nurse, doctor, pharmacist, therapist, practitioner, coach, trainer, an individual who provides regular direct care for a family member or a friend, someone who works in a care facility, and or a parent caring for their child and not making time for themselves. A caregiver may also be a person that cares for those with health conditions such as Parkinson's disease, Autism, Developmental disabilities, Alzheimer's disease, Traumatic brain injury, Dementia, Spinal cord injuries, Mental health issues, Dissociative identity disorder, Psychiatric disorders, and More. Why a self-care journal for caregivers? For caregivers to successfully help those under their care, they need to provide themselves with self-care. If they are not taking care of their physical, emotional, and mental health, they will not be as equipped to serve others. This journal will provide caregivers with the needed channel to document their own self-care journey and provide inspiration and internal peace. Using this journal for 60 days will give caregivers accountability to themselves. We know that when we repeat actions for a prolonged period of time, consistently, it becomes a routine. Self-care is a routine that is non-negotiable, and this journal will set the tone for the present and future healthy you. Give yourself grace. You don't have to do it all, be it all & or know it all. You don't have to compare yourself to others or live up to anyone else's expectations. What's more important is to take each moment with breath, intention & presence. You will be bringing out your highest and best self when you slow down and realize that life is beautiful even if you don't do it all or have all the answers. You will be a better and healthier you when you give yourself grace.

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.
