The suggestions below are to help you stay healthy!  Remember, these are only suggestions and you are the expert on what works (and doesn't work) for you.  In other words, utilize the information you need and leave the rest.

• Be gentle with yourself.  Be patient with and kind to yourself.

• Assess what you need and seek resources (people organizations and information) that can help meet your needs.

• Take care of your emotional health and physical health needs.

• Find a hermit spot.  Use it daily!

• Remember that in the light of all the pain we see, we are bound to feel helpless at times.  Admit it without shame.  Caring and being there are sometimes more important that doing.

• Change your routine often and your tasks when you can.

• On the way home, focus on a good thing that occurred during the day.

• Be flexible.

• Schedule times to "withdraw" during the week.  Limit interruptions.

• If you never say no, what is your "yes" worth?

• Saying yes to something is saying no to something else (usually something for you)

• Let go of perfectionism, fixing, and worry.

• LAUGH AND PLAY!
