STURGEON BAY, WI, June 11, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Third Step Press will present a daily Blog-A-Thon, "21 Days to Eureka!", beginning June 21 on Braincaregiver.com The focus will be to help caregivers acquire the habit of relaxation and the ability to relax on self-command in the face of frustration or crises.
The daily blogs will offer special tips for home caregivers of cognitively, emotionally and/or memory-challenged patients. Beyond stress control, caregivers will learn how to tap into the creative, intuitive source in the subconscious mind.
Created by Madonna Siles, C.P.C., author of two books for caregivers of stroke and brain injury survivors, the blog will feature daily motivation meditations, enhanced by photos. In addition to tips and tricks for acquiring the relaxation habit, participants in the Blog-A-Thon will be encouraged to support each other with comments that prove relaxation is working in their lives. A link will be provided to the author's website, Eurekamaster.com, where caregivers can experience a relaxation visualization.
According to Siles, a certified professional life coach and a career motivational communicator, "The concept of a 21-day Blog-A-Thon is based on the premise that it takes 21 days to acquire a new habit. Borrowing from a 12-step program practice, the Blog-A-Thon will encourage action to reinforce that the new habit is 'working'. It will also encourage participants to positively support each other with their comments."
Both of Siles's books, Brain, Heal Thyself (Hampton Roads, 2006) and Eureka! Memories and Motivations (Third Step Press, 2010), describe the author's unique approach to the daily caregiving of her friend, the survivor of a devastating brain hemorrhage in 2001. The books are available at Amazon, Barnes & Noble and other online retailers, as well as the author's website, www.Eurekamaster.com
