Caring for Self While Caring for Others – Caregiver 3-part Series
February 1, February 8 and February 22, 2021
Join us for this free three-part series starting February 1st, presented by health and wellness expert Marlene George.
Relying on her professional education and decades of experience in the alternative healing modalities and private counseling practice, Marlene provides essential information on the importance of self-care when taking care of others.
This series is for service professionals, volunteers in care taking for friends, family, or total strangers, and those whose chosen roles involve putting others before self.
Caring for people who are not in the best of health physically or mentally place unique stresses on those responsible to and for them. When you sacrifice selfcare when caring for another, your life tilts out of the balance necessary to fulfill all the roles you choose to pursue.
