For family caregivers of persons with chronic illnesses, the day can be too full of worries, laundry, hands-on care and medications. It definitely can be an unhappy situation. But, can it be a happier one?In this workbook, we're setting out to find out: Can we increase happiness during a difficult time in life? Each month, you'll set goals based on one word: Plan, Replace, Space, Join, Resolve, Let Go, Quiet, Teach, Learn, Rejoice, Save, Say. You can set one goal or more, but try to keep within three goals.You'll keep progress of how well you're doing with the goal(s) and reflect on what's going well. At the end of each month, we hope an effective action becomes a helpful habit.Why not ask others to join you? Companionship on the journey helps you stay on your road to more happiness. Invite your friends, family members and support group members.Readers say:“To find accountability in making a daily habit part of your routine is very powerful. “Take Time” does this. I so enjoy the challenges and how they can add to our happiness during a difficult time, how the happiness can even grow. I have been caring for my mother for several years. I became complacent in feeling as though I couldn't have challenges for personal growth or true happiness while in caregiving – that one day I would, but not now. Take Time doesn't allow you to wait. It will go with you and stay with you, pointing out the happiness along the way. You can live life with the person you're caring for. I am so grateful for Take Time – for all of Denise Brown's books where she goes with us on our journeys, helping us learn, grow, find meaning and keep it all with us during caregiving and beyond.”“What a wonderful book! I am a family caregiver for my husband, and it hasn't been easy to be happy on a daily basis. I LOVE how this book gives me a focus for a month! When a day is challenging, it's nice to have a place to refer to remind myself that I can still be happy. I'd recommend this book for anyone, not just caregivers.”
