Caregiving is a natural part of the cycle of life. Allowing ourselves space for self-care is one of the most important tasks in our curriculum for living. When was the last time that you set out on an adventure of deep self-care? At its core caregiving is an ever-evolving cycle of balancing self-care and caring for others. Sadly, limited attention is provided across media platforms, about the necessity of caregiving and self-care.
