1. What gives you meaning or joy beyond caregiving?

​

Purpose of this reflection:
To help you reconnect with the parts of yourself that exist outside your caregiving role. These moments often remind you that your life and identity hold more than the responsibilities you carry.

​

How to reflect:
Think about activities, people, or moments that make you feel most alive, grounded, or at peace. This could be something simple - a quiet cup of tea, time in nature, creative expression, or connection with others.

​

Example reflections:

• “Painting helps me lose track of time and reconnect with calm.”

• “Spending time with friends who make me laugh reminds me that I’m still me.”

• “I find meaning in reading stories that inspire compassion and courage.”
