Free Family Caregiver Series Stress Management 101 Sponsored by Senior Approved Services
Stress cannot necessarily be eliminated, let's face it, providing care for an older adult or someone chronically ill or with a disability is stressful. Learn how to prevent the negative effects of stress from harming the physical body and emotional state of mind by attending Stress Management 101.
Cleveland, OH (PRWEB) January 16, 2007 -- A healthy body, mind and spirit are essential to meeting the challenges of aging and of caring for an aging parent, spouse and others. Each of the four sessions will focus on self-help tools, resources, information and support for both the older adult and their family members. Stress management is key to keeping oneself healthy and a variety of Certified Senior Approved Services will be promoted as resources to assist the family caregiver; lessening this stress by learning who to reach out to, when and why.
Though primarily focused on aging older adults and the families that care for them, this series is just as valuable to those with disabilities, those within the M.R.D.D. population, those with chronic illnesses and their family members as well.
