Mindfulness for Caregivers Who Don’t Have a Minute to Spare
If you’ve ever thought, “I don’t have time to be mindful,” this episode is for you.
In caregiving, time always feels tight. So mindfulness? It sounds like a luxury you can’t afford. But what if mindfulness isn’t about carving out more time but simply showing up to the time you already have?
In this episode, Charlotte shares how presence, not perfection, is the most powerful act of self-preservation. You'll learn the difference between mindfulness and meditation, how to shift your focus from spiraling to grounding, and how to use ordinary moments (like washing your hands or starting the car) to return to yourself.
Using the Anchor Practice, Charlotte walks you through how to integrate mindfulness into your caregiving life without needing more time, silence, or space. Just presence.
