We're here again when we can gather to draw from the Well of Wellness!
As carers, we often put in 100% or 110% of our emotional and physical energy into what we are doing. Why? Because we care.
It's important that we set healthy boundaries so that we reduce the likelihood of experiencing 'carer fatigue'.
Here is a gentle reminder of some healthy boundary-setting taken from Daily Caring which you can visit for an elaboration/explanation of each of the following:
1) Just because someone asks you to do something doesn’t mean you should do it.
2) It’s not your job to make everyone else comfortable all the time.
3) Guilt won’t kill you.
4) Set boundaries with yourself.
5) Your being is more important than your doing.
What boundary/ries have you established as part of your caring role?
