Inspired Caring

It is hard enough when you are the one providing the daily care for your loved one, let alone trying to convince other family members it needs  to be done, or how it needs to be done!

Debbie shares her experience of navigating multiple family members as they moved through the process of caregiving and moving. 

There can be a lot of loss to navigate as a caregiver, especially when someone has dementia and the losses seem to keep coming. Kay shares from her vast experience from caring for her husband for the last 8 years and her many years as a licensed mental health practitioner, working with families going through grief.

In this episode, Mindy Crouch shares some of the struggles facing both  caregivers AND the person they are caring for. 

She also offers guidance  and suggestions on what you can do right now to have a more positive  experience in both positions!   

 When working as a medical social worker, Mindy Crouch  discovered the need for a geriatric mental health therapist who goes to  the nursing homes.  She couldn’t find a resource for this need so  decided to open up a private practice that did mental health therapy in  nursing homes.  

A year and half went by and there were more therapists  interested in doing what she was doing, so she decided to open up Pando  Geriatric Counseling to expand the services more into the community.   

She has also acquired her Iowa Social Work License and her Grief  Recovery Certificate since then.  To reach Mindy to learn more about services Pando offers, contact them  at [email protected] or 402-321-8995.

What does self care really mean and how do you do it?  This interesting  conversation will provide specific tips on how and what you can do to  take care of yourself, while caring for someone else.  

Gaby Van Houten has had a life-long interest in Ayurveda. Ayurveda,  or“science of life”, is a natural healing system that has been practiced  for thousands of years. Originating in ancient India, this healing  tradition states that each person’s path to optimal health is unique -  because each person is unique. Therefore Ayurveda emphasizes balance in  body, mind, and spirit through diet, lifestyle, exercise, meditation,  yoga, and cleansing therapies - all designed for the individual, this is  not a “one size fits most”approach. Ayurveda and Yoga are sister  sciences - practiced together they form a complete approach to optimal  health, vitality, higher awareness and increased longevity.Gaby received  her formal training through the California College of Ayurveda, the  nation’s leader in Ayurvedic education. She has also been in private  practice as a Licensed Esthetician since 1987. Whether your intention is  to create a healthier lifestyle for yourself, or to learn tools to  navigate through a health crisis, Gaby draws on her various  qualification as an Ayurvedic Health Practitioner, Ayurvedic Yoga  Therapist, Certified Pancha Karma Specialist and Primordial Sound  Meditation Teacher, to design a treatment plan that is unique for you.
