Many of us find ourselves in caregiving roles, supporting a variety of needs for family members and friends. Caregiving involvement and commitments can quickly consume our time, energy, as well as our emotional reserves, often leading to overwhelm and burnout.

Numerous surveys and studies show people are struggling, having to make difficult choices between major life areas such as jobs and family member’s care, increasing stress levels.

In this virtual workshop on October 17 (6-7 pm), we will explore:

  • How to identify signs of caregiver overwhelm and stress.
  • Easy strategies to create and implement effective self-care routines.
  • Community resources to support caregivers.

Kelly Dwyer, founder of Nature Education Opportunities, is an award-winning environmental educator and certified NH elementary teacher. She has been creating and delivering engaging programming for audiences of all ages for over 15 years.

As a certified wellness coach, Kelly also brings a deep understanding of the numerous benefits of connecting with the natural world to reduce stress, improve health and embrace a more mindful approach to life and learning.
