I'm sure that you'll like it...so sure that if for any reason you want to return it I will pay the shipping and full refund. Here's a short excerpt from the beginning of the book: How To Use This Book This little book is about personal growth, wisdom and sharing. It's based on the premise that you can grow and gain wisdom by helping others at the end of their lives. Then you can share this wisdom with those who are fortunate enough to be with you at the end of your life. This may be friends, family, children, grandchildren or caregivers. They will all benefit from your knowledge. You will be the one who is in balance. This will be an important and fulfilling time for all of you. Though written for all levels of caregivers, this book is well-suited for those who want to take their caregiving work to the next level. The first three chapters present information and exercises that will be helpful to everyone. The last chapters continue with advanced techniques which reveal caregiving in a new light, as a tool which in itself can help caregivers deepen their own spiritual practices. Program directors, supervisors and workshop presenters should feel free to use this material in their clinical in-services. It is practical and conducive to group presentation. Please contact us with any questions. We are happy to share this material. We hope for a great deal...not the least of which is to revolutionize caregiving in the hearts and minds of the dedicated care providers who are doing this valuable work on a daily basis. Introduction - Help Yourself By Helping Others We already know that for you, the caregiver, it's never about me.Caregivers are selfless...often too selfless. Believe it or not you can take care of yourself while caring for others. You can even use caregiving as a practice in which to include work with larger issues surrounding life and death. Your efforts to become a better caregiver today can help you and those around you tomorrow. By helping your loved one, you are indeed preparing for a better end of life. This is the essence of the caregiver revolution. Caregiving is a precious opportunity to help others, but perhaps you never stop to consider how much it is helping you! By doing this work, you are naturally creating a more positive environment for the end of your own life. You'll be able to handle your death more gracefully, knowledgeably and peacefully. Those around you at that time will benefit from this and will, in turn, pass it on. By making efforts to become a more mindful caregiver today, you are initiating a cycle of benefit that will help future generations.
