siblings aren’t pitching in, facilitate a
family meeting and talk about how to
delegate tasks.
• Remember that you have a right to
your own life. Giving your all doesn’t
mean giving up your own health and
well-being.
• If you fi nd yourself tired, angry or
resentful at the end of the day, ask
yourself what thoughts, actions or
interactions drained you. Develop a
meditation or self-refl ection practice
to let them go.
• Don’t worry about what society,
other family members, friends and
colleagues think of you or how you
are doing. Consider that your best
is good enough; no one else has the
right to judge you or make you feel
guilty.
• Keep a positive attitude and accept
each day’s offerings. Then let everything
go at the end of the day.
• Stop trying to control people and
events or expecting certain results.
Life happens on its own.

• Pay attention to the people and activities
that nurture your life energy.
Commit to more of these interactions.
• Make a list of tasks and prioritize
them according to what is important
for you to be personally involved in
and what you can delegate.
• Learn to ask for help; it is actually
selfi sh “not” to let others give to you.
• In order to protect your time and
energy, learn to say “no” to things
you used to say “yes” to. Set reasonable
expectations: Don’t try to be all
things to all people; it is not your responsibility
to make others happy or
to live their lives for them. Remember
that service means enhancing other
people’s lives, not giving your life
away or making other people happy.

Hearing aids do not restore natural hearing. Hearing test and video otoscopic inspection are
always free. Hearing test is an audiometric test to determine amplifi cation needs only. These are
not medical exams nor are they intended to replace a physician’s care. If you suspect a medical
problem please seek treatment from your doctor.
