Workshop #1: Christmas in July??
Loved ones with dementia are trapped in the moment; there is no before or after. If these moments are boring, confusing, or frightening they can result in challenging behaviors. In this workshop caregivers will learn how to identify and engage loved ones in meaningful activities to create joyful moments not only for loved ones but for themselves, too. 
   
Workshop #2: Stop! I want to get off…
The caregiving experience is a roller coaster of emotions and one wonders if the ride will ever end. In this workshop caregivers will learn about normal and not-so-normal emotions. They will learn how to effectively manage stress, understand the meaning of the “Ah Ha!” moment, and learn essential coping skills to be able to enjoy the “ride”. 
  
Workshop#3: Health is More than Physical…
Physical, emotional, and spiritual health are a package deal with one being dependent on the others. In this workshop caregivers will learn how to strengthen and maintain their “package deal” through good nutrition, setting and maintaining boundaries, and nurturing their spirits.
