In contemplative caregiving, the caregiver cultivates mindfulness - TopicsExpress



          

In contemplative caregiving, the caregiver cultivates mindfulness as a skill, and then they bring that skill to their relationships so that they have a lot of awareness of the self and the person they’re caring for. The caregiver also does a great deal of reflection on aging and dying so that they have flexibility and equanimity and don’t think that dying is an emergency or that illness is a tragedy. —Jennifer Block, Director of Contemplative Caregiver Courses The Contemplative Caregiver Courses are a new model of caregiving that brings the Buddhist teachings of mindfulness, wisdom and compassion into the practice of caring for those who are elderly, ill or dying.
