This One Brain System Is Secretly Making Caregiving Harder

Episode 139 Published 7 months, 3 weeks ago
Description

What if your brain was unintentionally making dementia caregiving even harder… without you realizing it?

I'm walking you through a brain system that plays a big role in your daily stress, reactions, and what you tend to notice as a caregiver.

It's called the Reticular Activating System (RAS), and it plays a huge role in what you notice, how you feel, and the results you experience in your caregiving journey.

This isn't about pretending things are fine. It's about understanding how your brain works, so you can finally start using it to help you, instead of working against you.

💌 I first shared this idea in a personal email to my Dementia Dose newsletter, and thousands of caregivers replied asking for more. Want to join the newsletter? It's totally free: https://tinyurl.com/dementiadose-yt
