7 Deadly Myths About Self-Care, Especially For Caregivers

  • Resumen

  • If you think this episode might not be relevant, think again. According to a new report from AARP and the National Alliance for Caregiving, more than 1 in 5 adults – a total of 53 million Americans are now unpaid family caregivers. And let's face it: if we're not caregivers now, we will likely be one at some point. And being a caregiver is not just a financial stress; it also creates emotional, mental, and physical stress with alarming consequences. Did you know that 30% of caregivers die before the people they care for do? And that rate goes up to 70% for caregivers over 70. Those are shocking statistics. Even more startling is that when it comes to those who are caring 24/7 for a loved one with Alzheimer's, 63% die during the time they are providing care, an average of two years before their loved one. Given that five million people live with Alzheimer's, this is only going to get worse. If you're wondering why caregivers die before their loved ones at such an alarming rate, it's simple. They are neglecting their own health and well-being. For many, self-care isn't even on their radar. While self-care is essential for each of us, these statistics reveal that the consequences for caregivers are life and death. It's time to take this issue head-on. That's why this episode will explore the seven deadly myths about self-care, especially as they relate to caregivers and the truth behind them. We will also provide specific solutions to help you prioritize self-care, whether you are a caregiver now or not. Join us to learn what you can do to ensure that self-care is on YOUR radar.
