Equanimity in Caregiving

Greetings are to all in Happiness for Honors Students,

I am so excited to share this excellent website with all of you:

https://self-compassion.org/category/exercises/  about self-compassion and caregiving. 

Caregiving has its ups and its downs.  This website is a rich source for finding balance in the caregiving profession.  Even if you care for a cat, dog, turtle, fish, or parrot, the first meditation guides one through the process of feeling equanimity. 

The first meditation is a lovely Self-Compassion for Caregivers [Video - 9 minutes], and it only takes nine short minutes from your day.  In return, you will feel so balanced after listening to it.  So please give it a try for the one about whom you care:  https://youtu.be/jJ9wGfwE-YE

Sincerely,

April Vihilidal
