This hour focuses on reducing family caregiver stress through hypnosis. As you're taking care of a senior loved one, hypnosis can help you regain your sanity. In this segment, Alzheimer's and dementia expert Faith Marshall of Awakenings Hypnosis & Coaching focuses on what happens when you first contact her. An initial conversation determines first steps, individualized to the person. A commonality with caregivers is exhaustion, burnout and fatigue. When people come to a session, people melt into the chair and enjoy it. Similar to meditation, a session starts with muscle relaxation and becoming comfortable with the hypnotist. A session lasts 20 to 30 minutes. Afterward, people feel refreshed and ready for the day, with a recording they can play at night. (Image © Can Stock Photo / fizkes)
