**Class 7: Practicing Forward**

Mindfulness Based Dementia Care (MBDC) is an evidenced-based, eight-week program designed for family caregivers of people with Alzheimer’s Disease and related dementias. MBDC offers invaluable tools and resources for dealing with the unique stressors associated with dementia care, especially those that can become mentally, physically, and emotionally overwhelming to the caregiver. Join Ymkje Dioquino of the Presence Care Project for an opportunity to explore, deepen and enhance your coping skills, and build resilience so you may navigate difficulty with greater ease. Each session consists of formal meditations and informal mindfulness practices, conversations and dementia related education. Participants will receive a FREE workbook and access to recordings to use in-between sessions.
