About this book
Take care of yourself as you care for others with this accessible, easy-to-follow self-care guide to relax and rejuvenate.

Chances are you or someone you know is taking care of a loved one at home. If you do, you also know that caregivingâhowever fulfillingâis also hard on the caregiver's mental and physical health.
