Harvard Health Publications and RosettaBooks Release Mindfulness Support for Alzheimer’s Caregivers
New York, NY (PRWEB) October 02, 2013 -- Providing care to patients with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia can be emotionally taxing and physically exhausting. In Mindfulness Support for Alzheimer’s Caregivers, Dr. Gail Gazelle offers her experience as a former caregiver in addition to more than 25 years of experience as a physician. Affirmations, advice, and comforting counsel will aid the “wounded healers” in meeting their own needs while taking care of their loved ones.
“This is a compassionate and informative guide for every caregiver,” said Dr. Julie Silver, Chief Editor of Books for Harvard Health Publications.
