Lisa is joined by Lakelyn Eichenberger, Ph.D. to talk about the simple steps even the busiest caregivers can incorporate to prioritize themselves. Dr. EIchenbarger has dedicated her career to educating professionals, families and communities on how to navigate the unique challenges older adults and family caregivers face. She is a seasoned public speaker and expert on aging issues, appearing on conference stages such as Aging in America and Meals on Wheels, and programming such as Dr. Oz, Dr. Phil and the Hallmark Channel's Home and Family Show.Home Instead shares tips for prioritizing one's well-being during World Alzheimer's MonthOMAHA, Neb., Sept. 18, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- As the number of Americans living with Alzheimer's continues to rise – now exceeding 6 million Americans – the dedicated caregivers supporting these older adults find themselves confronted with challenges such as managing high stress levels, dealing with sleep deprivation and struggling to find time for self-care. Unfortunately for caregivers, these factors are known to contribute to the development of the disease, putting them at greater risk.Eighty percent of Alzheimer's care is provided in the home, not a facility, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). As the leading provider of in-home care for older adults, Home Instead® recognizes the vital role caregivers have in the lives of individuals affected by Alzheimer's. Beyond providing care to those with the disease, it's important to protect the well-being of Alzheimer's caregivers themselves."Among the most common concerns our Care Professionals hear from family caregivers is that they don't want their own children to become family caregivers," said Lakelyn Hogan Eichenberger, Ph.D., gerontologist and caregiving advocate at Home Instead. "Alzheimer's is a difficult disease to live with for everyone involved. Carving time for self-care might feel selfish, but it's the most productive action you can take to keep your future self healthy."On Thursday, Sept. 21, at 12:00PM CDT, Home Instead is hosting a virtual brain health workshop for family caregivers to learn more about how maintaining a healthy brain can positively impact your memory and help reduce the risk of Alzheimer's. Registration is free, click here to RSVP.During World Alzheimer's Month, Home Instead is calling attention to the connection between healthy habits and brain health and encouraging caregivers to prioritize their needs. Growing evidence suggests that people can reduce their risk of cognitive decline by adopting key lifestyle changes. But major changes can feel overwhelming to those caring for loved ones. Here are suggestions for simple steps even the busiest caregivers can incorporate to prioritize themselves:Exercise to promote cardiovascular health. Those who exercise have a lower risk of developing cognitive decline. Even 30 minutes of movement can make a difference. Activities like walking, swimming and light jogging boost heart rate and preserve mental function.Eat right to fuel the brain. Choose lean meats and olive oil-enriched foods to enhance brain health, mood and memory. Reducing red meat and saturated fats can alleviate brain fog, sluggishness and exhaustion.Sleep and relax. Sleep detoxes the brain and promotes tissue healing. Experts recommend between seven and nine hours of sleep a night to promote optimal health. Trouble sleeping? Consider trying an eye mask or sleeping app.Maintain social connections. Studies have shown those with the most social interaction within their community experience the slowest rate of memory decline. Regular social interaction, such as a phone call with a friend, can slow memory decline, particularly if you live alone.Engage your brain. People who continue to learn, embrace new activities, and develop new skills are building and improving the networks in their brain. Stay curious and engage in brain games like crosswords, puzzles, bingo or phone apps to keep your mind active.Take a positive approach to stress management. Chronic stress can harm the brain, affecting memory and mood regulation. Focus on the present, embrace natural events and think positively to reduce stress. Practice deep breathing and positive mantras multiple times a day to help you reset.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5948889/advertisement

The Caregiving Chats podcast provides education and resources for people to plan for their caregiving journey, including information on Alzheimer's and dementia, aging in place, and self-care. We underestimate how the person we are caring for feeds off our energy and mood. Take breaths and slow down when feeling anxious, rushed, and frustrated. Tap into homecare services and reach out to family members to build your care team. People are more comfortable planning for their funeral than the days, weeks and months leading up to it. We can pick out our casket and gravestone, but don't want to talk about losing mobility, giving up driving, or needing help with activities of daily living. Families need to start having difficult conversations earlier. When making decisions in crisis mode, you are not gathering as much information as you should and are not evaluating all the options, which leads to regret, stress and strain. According to the Home Instead guide Action plan for successful aging, a majority of adult children (54%) surveyed described their critical conversations with parents as uncomfortable at times, difficult but necessary, emotional with yelling and tears, or difficult and unsuccessful.

Is your home and life centered around your kids? While cultures values and practical care needs can easily lend to this kind of life I believe that God calls us to something different! Our lives are meant to be centered around God and thus we adhere to Biblical standards that put kids outside of the center. Today I unpack what it looks like to move from a Child Centered home into a Family Centered home that will be the healthiest kind of place for you AND your kids.

Lisa is joined by Dr. Lakelyn Eichenberger from Home instead to share research on the sandwich (or panni) generation and ways to survive! Dr. Lakelynn Eichenberger who has dedicated her career to educating professionals, families and communities on how to navigate the unique challenges older adults and family caregivers face. She is a seasoned public speaker and expert on aging issues, appearing on conference stages such as Aging in America and Meals on Wheels, and programming such as Dr. Oz, Dr. Phil and the Hallmark Channel's Home and Family Show. According to Pew Research, more than one in 10 U.S. parents with children under the age of 18 are also caring for an aging adult. As the average life expectancy continues to increase, and families wait longer to have children, the demands on those caring for generations on either side of them only intensifies. A recent survey of 1,000+ individuals who care for aging parents and have children under the age of 17. These caregivers were all over age 18 and located in the U.S. and Canada. The results of the survey, spsonsored by Home Instead, revealed:Over half of the sandwich generation (59%) doesn't know where to turn or how to ask for help when it comes to relief from their caregiving duties.Nearly half (48%) have avoided personal travel, cut expenses, or shifted budgets (45%) to meet responsibilities of caring for an aging parent.Almost one in four of the sandwich generation (23%) have quit a job that made it too hard to be a caregiver for an aging loved one.Most working panini generation caregivers agree that people are more understanding about taking time off to care for a sick child than to care for a sick parent or parent-in-law (76%)Almost all working panini generation caregivers agree it would help if their company provided eldercare resources referrals (96%) and explicit policy to use personal/sick time to care for a parent/parent-in-law (95%).Listen to hear the 5 Ways to Survive the Sandwich Generation too!
