The Caregiver’s Book: A New Second
Edition
The
Caregiver’s Book has been
one of the more acclaimed books that showcases Jim’s
photography along with his writing. Taken out of print by the
original publisher two years
ago, it’s now in a revised edition by Willowgreen Publishing.
There are twice as many photographs, extra pages of quotations,
and a lovely new design. The text, with its eight basic ideas
about being a healthy caregiver, has been updated to reflect
Jim’s evolving thinking. This is a book you’ll
want to
read slowly and more than once. It’s also the kind
of a book
that makes a thoughtful gift. To order, select this LINK
This Time of Caregiving: The DVD
The immersion
into becoming a
family caregiver often happens quickly,
sometimes unexpectedly. Even
when one is prepared for this new
role, the same questions may emerge: Can I do all that
I’m now supposed to do? Am I strong enough? Wise
enough? Will I be caring enough? What if I fail? This
Time of Caregiving addresses the thoughts and feelings
that family members and friends often have as they first
begin this work. Jim Miller narrates this 25-minute DVD while
his photography from nature artfully illustrates the supportive
ideas he offers. Caregivers will come away from this presentation
feeling affirmed and encouraged. To

This Time of Caregiving: The CD
Someone
newly called to becoming a family caregiver may prefer to
hear an assuring message rather than
watch one or read one. For that
reason we’ve released our popular
book, This Time of Caregiving, as a CD. It contains
the soothing voices of Jim Miller and Christen Pettit Miller
with background music composed by Christopher G. Nelson,
all working together to underscore the basic message: “You are capable.
You have known other strengthening experiences in life that
you
can call upon now. You have others around who can
help.” Jim and Christen offer a dozen reasons that
say,“You can do this.” To

Assurances from the Psalms: A New DVD
Jim
has gathered the most comforting
verses from the Psalms and
arranged them around eight themes,
including “The Lord watches over our
journey,” and “The Lord knows us.” He has
added his
photography from here and abroad plus original
music by a master pianist to create a reassuring presentation
for those facing life challenges. To

A New DVD That Builds Hope
First
Jim establishes the importance and value of hope for all of
us. He then offers twelve hope-building messages in the form
of striking quotations that he has carefully chosen.
Lovely photography and flowing music add to the
uplifting effect. This piece is not about hope—it
breeds hope and helps spread it.

New Products—Fall of 2006

The Debut of Our Willowgreen
Notecards—Through the years people have asked us,
“Why don’t you create notecards with your distinctive
photography and use of words?” This year we said, “We’ll
do just that!” We’re introducing 15 cards in six
different categories.
These attractively designed
cards contain meaningful messages that caregiving professionals
will find appropriate and useful. We’ve also fashioned
these cards, both by the packaging and the pricing, for cost
efficient bulk sales. When ordering packs of 50, the more
you purchase, the more you save. Browse
the collection.
Willowgreen’s
new Photo Inspiration DVDs are designed to be reflective viewing
experiences. Photographic images dissolve slowly in and out
in juxtaposition to the words on the screen as soft music
plays. Ideal for hospital closed circuit TV systems, these
creations can also be used during breaks in workshops and
as audiences gather for keynote addresses. Some people utilize
them for personal meditation. Browse
the collection.
Our
newest audio CD begins with "You Make Such a Difference"
in which Jim Miller voices his affirmation of the everyday
work of hospice and palliative care professionals in his gentle,
heartfelt manner. The second part, "The Light of Day,"
is the song he wrote, sung as if a dying person were speaking
to their hospice caregiver, expressing gratitude. Gary Malkin
did the music and the vocal recording. Then "Thank You,
Thank You" is Jim's appreciation, spoken on behalf of
all, for the many things such caregivers do day in and day
out.
