Description
How do you prioritize your own health when you're the parent of a high-needs child? Natalie Brobin's life turned upside down when she found herself struggling to care for a daughter with Turner Syndrome-a rare chromosomal disorder, which can cause heart defects and delayed growth, among other health issues, particularly in girls. Struggling to prioritize her daughter's health amidst the everyday madness of raising two other children and thus juggling carpools, diving practices, family commitments and neighborhood get-togethers, Brobin eventually had a nervous breakdown after a dear friend's death by suicide that left her determined to find another way to live. After rediscovering herself through a combination of therapy, yoga, advocacy work and writing, Brobin discovered the path to self-care for any parent of a special needs child (or even a typical one). Everyday Self-Care and Your High-Needs Child provides concrete ideas on how to reduce stress through breath work, meditation, nutrition, healthy sleep, therapy, laughter and positive outlets for stress. Written in concise chapters, and drawing from the experience of other parents as well as the input of doctors, this book is the informed, experienced life coach in your pocket that every parent of a special needs child can use.
