A Guided Meditation to Help with Caregiver Stress Belleruth Naparstek

Belleruth Naparstek wrote this imagery to remind the caregiver - whether this be a family member or a professional provider - of their own strength, goodness, tenacity and resourcefulness. The imagery affirms the generational values being carried forward. It notes the invisible forces of love and support surrounding the listener. And it underlines the need for self-care, self-consideration. It is of course also designed to provide relaxation and balance; sustain motivation; reduce isolation; acknowledge the difficulties without sugar-coating them; help release any accrued resentment; and restore hope for the future. With affirmations.
