Coffee isn’t just for Caregivers, but some of us need our “Go To” drink to jumpstart the days!
That morning coffee can provide a great opportunity to do some journaling.
Maybe you’d rather read something besides prescription bottles.
Perhaps, you can spend a few minutes outdoors in the sunshine to enhance your sense of well-being.
