FSAP Wellness Webinar: Balancing Elder Care and Self-Care

Caregiving can be deeply meaningful but also mentally and emotionally demanding. Over time, the stress of supporting others—whether aging parents, loved ones, or both—can lead to exhaustion, burnout, and a sense of being overwhelmed. This webinar will explore the psychological impact of caregiving, common emotional responses, and practical ways to manage stress while maintaining well-being.

We will also discuss the sandwich generation, a term used to describe those caring for both aging parents and their own children, and the unique challenges this dual role presents.

To close, we will offer a special meditation for caregivers, designed to help reduce stress and promote emotional balance. Whether you're providing hands-on care or coordinating support from a distance, this session will provide insights into protecting your mental health while caring for others.

Join Dr. Ana Dolatabadi from the Faculty and Staff Assistance Program (FSAP) for this wellness hour.
