<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>"Health<br>care professionals and those who take care of others should read this<br>outstanding book!" - <b>Dr. Richard<br>Gillett</b>, psychiatrist and bestselling author of <i>It's a Freakin' Mess</i></p> <p/>"I cannot recommend this book highly enough." - <b>Dr. Sarah Eagger</b>, consultant<br>psychiatrist and co-author of <i>Stillness<br>in the Storm</i></p> <p/>How to balance your own self-care with the needs of others <p/>As a helping professional, <br>caregiver, or someone who puts others first, it is so easy to ignore your own<br>needs. Becoming physically run-down, emotionally burned-out, and spiritually<br>depleted can result in frustration and anxiety - even disillusionment.</p> <p/>Sarah Kuipers knows this all too well. She ran a successful<br>health practice for over 20 years. The combined pressure of work and bringing<br>up three boys as a single parent finally led to debilitating burnout.</p> <p/>Sarah was curious about why so many people, including health<br>professionals, fail to manage stress and practice self-care. She completed a<br>Masters in Research on stress and burnout, and now teaches stress management to<br>medical students.</p> <p/>Caring for others starts with caring for yourself <p/>This timely and practical book<br>encourages you to create a life in which you thrive. Only then can you give<br>your best to the world each day.</p> <p/><i>The<br>Thriving Giver</i> helps you create a personalised toolkit of self-care<br>skills and practical resources to: </p> <p/>- <br>Reduce stress and calm<br>anxiety</p> <p/>- <br>Prevent work stress<br>leaching into home life</p> <p/>- <br>Replenish energy</p> <p/>- <br>Release emotional<br>distress to shift your mindset</p> <p/>- <br>Reignite enthusiasm<br>for work</p> <p/> </p> <p/>This user-friendly book offers: </p> <p/>- <br>Simple, doable steps</p> <p/>- <br>Short chapters with<br>anecdotes to explain key concepts</p> <p/>- <br>Signposts so you can<br>cherry-pick the chapters you need</p> <p/> </p> <p/>Begin reading <i>The<br>Thriving Giver</i>, and in just a few minutes a day you will learn<br>effective new ways to nurture your mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual<br>wellbeing. When you thrive, your giving is sustainable.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Kuipers is a strong writer who reflects on mental health issues and the<br>need for selfcare on a whole new level. I think this book is incredibly helpful not only<br>for healthcare professionals but also for young adults entering the workforce. It will<br>assist them in facilitating healthy ways of thinking in order to prevent future<br>burnout or mental health problems. <i>Reviewed by Sydney Kerelo, <b> British Journal<br>of Midwifery, </b>July 2021, Vol 29, No 7.</i></p> <p/> </p> <p/><i>The Thriving Giver</i> could not have been<br>published at a better time. Amidst the dark and demoralising experiences of the<br>Covid-19 pandemic, no industry needs to prevent burnout more than the health<br>and social care professions...Before finishing the book, I was already applying nuggets of its wisdom<br>in my own life. Kuipers' advice on how to best create new empowering beliefs<br>particularly resonated with me... This empowering self-help book provides healthcare professionals and<br>caregivers with a rich toolkit of knowledge, tasks, and resources to help take<br>their self-care and wellbeing into their own hands and create a balanced and<br>nourishing life. <i>Reviewed by Mya Kirkwood, <b>The Psychologist, </b> 2<sup>nd</sup><br>August, 2021.</i></p> <p/><i> </i></p> <p/> While many of the strategies, including<br>expressive writing, breathing exercises, exercise and mindfulness and<br>meditation--are familiar to the reviewer ... I would highly recommend this book<br>to anyone seeking support for their own wellbeing who may benefit from<br>utilising a defined framework...</p> <p/> However, as the title suggests, there is also<br>much to be gained from professionals using these strategies with their clients<br>as part of a self-help approach... While not all strategies will necessarily resonate<br>with all readers, opportunities arise to cherry-pick resources and 'dip' in and<br>out, where appropriate. <i>Reviewed by Mark Challinor, <b>British Journal of Neuroscience Nursing, </b><br>Aug/Sept 2021, Vol 17, No 4.</i></p> <p/> </p> <p/>The seven principles are aimed at those working<br>in the industry of care, many of whom will have personality traits that often<br>lead to a pattern of 'over-giving'. Fundamental to the book is the need to<br>explore what drives this pattern of behaviour as those drawn to the 'helping'<br>professions take care of everyone else, ignore their own needs and in the<br>meantime, can get burnt out... This new book should be warmly welcomed as an<br>important guide for professionals who care for others. <i>Reviewed by Marina Malthouse, <b>Journal of<br>Holistic Health</b>, Summer 2021, Vol 18, Issue 2. </i></p> <p/> </p> <p/><b><i> </i></b></p> <p/></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Sarah Kuipers worked with clients for over 20 years, primarily as a hypnotherapist and life coach, while bringing up three boys as a single mother before experiencing burnout. Since completing a Masters Research Study on stress, she has facilitated numerous courses on stress management and personal development for medical students.
