The Community of Madrid is organizing a free workshop, 'Keys to Emotion Management and Self-Care,' aimed at families and professionals who care for individuals with neurodegenerative diseases.

The workshop aims to provide practical tools for recognizing, understanding, and managing emotions, promoting self-care as a foundation for personal and family well-being. Registration will be open from July 21 to September 13, 2026.
The training will cover the identification of basic emotions, positive emotional communication, the incorporation of healthy habits, and strategies for emotional regulation and stress management. It emphasizes that self-care is a fundamental necessity to prevent physical and emotional exhaustion.
The methodology will be theoretical-practical, encouraging participant involvement. A minimum of ten registered participants are required for the course to be held. Attendees will receive the presentation used and bibliographic references.

"The physical and psychological overload experienced by the caregiver of a person suffering from a neurodegenerative disease can lead them into a spiral where the lack of self-care favors the development of worrying emotional exhaustion."

Workshop program
The course is intended for professionals in socio-health centers and for family members of individuals with neurodegenerative diseases. Registration must be done for the training that corresponds to the participant's role. For inquiries or registration issues, contact can be made via email at formación.alzh.reinasofia@madrid.org.
This initiative is organized by the School of Long-Term Care for the Elderly of the Community of Madrid, in collaboration with the Alzheimer Center Fundación Reina Sofía.
