Hi there SANE Community,
We are very excited to announce that our next Topic Tuesday will be featuring the amazing @Shaz51 talking about self care for carers! Many of you will know @Shaz51 and her passion for carer wellbeing 🙂
Self care
Self care is a term that we speak about on the forums, so what does it mean? Self care is the activities that you do each day that promote your emotional, physical and social health.
Every person's self care will look different- it's as unique as we are. For carers, self care is an important part of maintaining wellbeing and preventing burnout. Often on the forums we hear about compassion fatigue, and the impact on wellbeing that can happen when we don't take time for ourselves.
This discussion will explore burnout and the role of self care in promoting wellbeing as a carer.
Please join us here on Tuesday the 20th of July 2021 from 7:00pm-8:30pm AEST to follow this conversation.

Hi @Abner,
Thank you for reaching out. You are most welcome to join us here on the night. It may be the case that a lot of the responses are really helpful for you as well. A lot of the questions will be geared towards carers, but relevant for most people 🙂
