Books

Being a caregiver requires you to draw upon your strength and to keep a “sound mind”.  Books are inspirational, educational, therapeutic, rewarding, etc.  Before I begin my day, I read and meditate.  It seems miraculously, just by being silent and still, whatever doubts I had the night before regarding my parents’ care are resolved.The booklist below has given me the strength to endure and the wisdom to understand.

1.  The Holy Bible

2.  The Book of Awakening – Mark Nepo

3.  Daily Word – A Unity Publication; www.dailyword.com

4.  The Giving Tree – Shel Silverstein

5.  Love You Forever – Robert Munsch

6. Caregiver Therapy – Julie Kuebelbeck and Victoria O’Connor.
