Stress is a major issue for many long-term caregivers. It can cause loss of sleep, health problems and difficulty performing necessary tasks. CAREgivers offers stress busting classes and information to help you control stress. You may learn more about our classes and support groups by clicking here to see our programs. Below, we have outlined some simple and effective ways to deal with stress.

Ways to cope with stress:

  • Make time for yourself doing something you enjoy – such as reading, taking a brief walk, or chatting with a friend.
  • Practice closing your eyes and taking DEEP BREATHS.
  • Journal your thoughts and feelings, putting them on the page can be a form of release.
  • Try creating an environment that you find calming – light candles, put on soothing music. You could practice taking deep breaths as well.
