The Caregiver Colouring Book To Help Reduce Caregiver Burnout Stress And Anxiety

Being a caregiver to someone living with dementia can be extremely challenging. Many days are filled with stress, anxiety, lack of sleep and limited energy. One major mistake caregivers typically make is not setting aside enough time for their own mental health and well-being. Studies show that colouring, for just 15 to 20 minutes a day, can increase mindfulness and improve mood. It also encourages patience, relaxation and helps with concentration. When developing this book, it was important to acknowledge and understand that everyone has different concentration levels, motor skills and visual acuity. The 70 designs are unique and vary in complexity. You can choose to keep the pages in the book or gently tear them out to make it easier to colour. What I love about this Caregiver Colouring Book is that you can share the pages with the person you are caring for and it's an activity that can be completed together. The Caregiver Journal Features: 6" x 9" 152 pages 70 unique mandala designs Designs printed on right side of book only Great designs for different skill levels Resource page Beautifully designed cover Space in back for notes A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this colouring book will be used to give back to those living in long-term care "I have your two other caregiver journals, so I was really excited to add this new addition to my collection. I know this book is for caregivers but I actually use these pages to draw with my Dad who suffers from dementia. Not only does it keep him busy but it also gives me a chance to relax for a few minutes." ~ Mary M About the author: Sam Cook is a media personality with achievements that include; interning for "The Late Show with David Letterman" in New York City, co-hosting a popular '90s television show called "UHOH!" which aired on YTV (Canada) and Discovery Kids (USA), and hosting her own popular radio show on several major market radio stations in Toronto, Canada.
