- Book Synopsis
- As a caregiver himself, and executive director of Zen Caregiving Project, Roy Remer was inspired to write Zen Caregiving to help support the emotional burden many caregivers experience and to augment this essential component of our healthcare system. After developing the Mindful Caregiving Education (MCE) curriculum and teaching MCE courses for many years, Remer was motivated to share what he had learned and taught about mindfulness-based approaches to care. Designed to be motivational, therapeutic, and practical, Zen Caregiving covers: the four components of the Zen approach to caregiving - mindfulness, compassion, loss literacy, and self-care. how to quiet the "thinking mind" to find solace and stay grounded. methods and approaches for expanding compassion and avoiding burnout. the value of grief and processing loss. practical advice for preparing medical directives and end-of-life arrangements. how to create intimacy with oneself to prioritize self-care one breath at a time. Zen Caregiving is an essential resource for those in need of spiritual guidance and emotional support as they navigate the often turbulent and uncharted waters of caring for a loved one.
