Caring For Others – and Yourself – Over The Holidays

Providing care to someone in your life is a rewarding experience, that sometimes comes at the cost of not taking care of ourselves to the best of our ability. The holidays are a time full of more tasks and responsibilities on top of what we already manage on a day-to-day basis. The holidays may also bring up a variety of emotions that seem difficult to handle in the moment. We all know it is important to care for ourselves, but what does that look like and how can we begin doing that to ensure the holidays are meaningful and memorable?

This month Emily Ayenew, the Regional Lead for Western Ontario at the Ontario Caregiver Organization, will join the community to speak about the importance of caring for yourself while caring for others, with an emphasis on understanding the unique experience of caring for someone during the holidays compared to other times of the year. You will leave more confident after learning practical tips on how to care for yourself, strategies to connect with those you are providing care for and learn about what supports the Ontario Caregiver Organization provides to caregivers across the province.

During this presentation you’ll learn:

  • What is caregiver stress and burnout
  • How to identify caregiver stress and burnout
  • Simple steps to self-care
  • Navigating the holidays and emotions associated with it 
  • Programs and services available to you in your role as a caregiver
