- The Caregiver Toolbox- Two Stress Management Tools Rayna Neises 13:57
Rayna Neises, ACC, host, shares two important tools to help caregivers manage the stress that can be experienced while caring for a loved one. She shares examples and insight on reframing and “Both/And” Thinking:
- [2:21] When we frame our experience with good in mind, it is easier to see the good
- [4:26] Reframing helps you to see all of the picture, not just one little part.
- [5:15] Take a deep breath and notice if ‘your camera is zoomed in’ or your perspective is distorted.
- [5:39] Reframing will help you strengthen your mental resolve.
- [6:36] “Both/And” Thinking vs. “Either/Or” Thinking
- [7:50] Unlike compromise which requires giving up something to agree, “Both/And” Thinking let’s both exist together.

- [10:34] “Both/And” Thinking creates breathing room and helps you to appreciate what you have lost and to appreciate what you have now.
