Brain Science, Self-Care, and the Jesus Way

  • Resumen

  • Kim Marxhausen shares invaluable insights on caring for caregivers, drawing from her personal experience with in-laws who had dementia and her professional background in educational psychology. She explores how brain science, emotional intelligence, and faith-based practices create sustainable patterns for those supporting others through illness or aging.

    • Understanding primary vs secondary emotions helps caregivers respond appropriately in stressful situations
    • The "superhero syndrome" can trap caregivers in feeling solely responsible for outcomes
    • Jesus modeled self-care through retreating for prayer, accepting care from others, and even napping
    • Morning routines that include spiritual practices create a foundation for resilience
    • Research confirms Bible reading four or more times weekly significantly improves mental health
    • The framework "feed your faith, find your fellowship" provides practical wisdom for caregiver wellness
    • Reorienting your thinking from being the superhero to doing the small tasks before you relieves pressure
    • Looking for people who want to help relieves the burden of trying to do everything alone
