Very well done to our therapists, coordinator and not forgetting the handsome Hector, who completed the walk around Loch Leven on 6th October!! They raised £668.75 (including gift aid) - another fantastic amount and we appreciate their continued commitment to supporting Circle of Comfort.
Thanks to everyone who sponsored the team for this fundraiser, it is very much appreciated 🌟

Everyone talks about the emotional toll that caring for someone can have but what about the physical effects?

Here are 3 ways caring might be affecting your body 👇

🍽 Loss of appetite
Stress can affect your hunger signals meaning you might feel less hungry or forget to eat. When caring for a loved one, nourishing yourself can get pushed to the bottom of the list. if someone in your support network cannot help with practical care, you could suggest that they help with tasks like cooking to make sure you AND your loved one are being fed.

🧠 Forgetfulness or brain fog
Caring involved constant planning and juggling of responsibilities. When your brain is overloaded it can become harder to concentrate, remember things or think clearly. You may feel that those closest to you do not understand what you’re going through. It can help to speak with others who are in similar situations to you on online forums and virtual chats. it can be a good way to connect and find clarity in your shared experience.

🛏️ Tiredness
Caring can be physically demanding. Tasks such as helping someone move, changing, washing and cleaning can put extra strain on your body, while disrupted sleep and little time to rest could leave you feeling tired. Try including some relaxing activities in your day where you can, like catching up on sleep or running a bath when the person you care for has visitors to help you rest.
