How to feel F.I.N.E. as a caregiver

Feeling “fine” as a caregiver can mean many things. Sometimes it can stand for feeling “frantic, irrational, neurotic, and emotional.” But other times it can mean a mixture of both comfortable and uncomfortable emotions. Welcoming all parts of ourselves instead of resisting the uncomfortable feelings can help reduce stress and increase peace. And maybe on some days we can find that fine stands for “fabulously intuitive and naturally enthusiastic.”
