What Does It Tech To Help?

Helping others and helping yourself are essential skills of a happy and fulfilling life. Nevertheless, as nobody is born a super multitasking helper, it’s good to sometimes rely on a little bit of tech support to transform your good intentions into reality. Indeed, it can be tricky to be where you’re needed at the right time or to manage day care activities and duties effectively. There is always too much to do and too much to think about. But that doesn’t mean you should stop caring! In fact, technology is making it easier to care, from practical smartphone applications to accessing online resources. Helping yourself and helping others has never been so tech easy!

Become “technically” competent

Not everybody has the right personality type to become a great helper. However, empathic and compassionate people who can not only put themselves in other people’s shoes but also provide creative and actionable solutions can make a significant change. But having the right personality is not enough. You also need the time to learn the right skills. That’s precisely why accredited online colleges for counseling are so popular. They allow students to learn at their pace and to accommodate their studies with a busy lifestyle. A change of career has never been easier!

Smart techs and ideas to help you help them

If you choose to care for someone, you may wonder what role technology has to play in your life. Whether you’re a carer, or whether you choose to provide help for a short period, you can make the most of tech apps to assist them in their everyday tasks. For instance, keeping a list of all necessities with automatic renewal reminders on your phone – such as for medications – can help you to keep a cool mind. You know, that you don’t forget anything. You can also make the most of time management apps and scheduling options to make sure that you can make time in your day for someone who needs your help.

Non-intrusive tech to know when to help

What if you want to make sure that your elderly or sick relative is doing okay? You could, with their authorization, use video monitoring tech to keep an eye on them. This can be especially useful for independent seniors who live alone. You’ll be able to check on them and act rapidly if they need you. But if it is too intrusive, you can use a sensor monitoring system instead, which will track activity patterns and keep you informed in real time.

The tech you need to relax

But who’s looking after you? You can rely on technology to help you release your stress at the end of a long day. Indeed, Pacifica is a great app that helps you to understand the different triggers of your stress to break the circle. You can also use the Buddha Board, which is a free app that lets your paint zen designs and encourages you to empty your mind as you watch them disappear.

So, do you have what it “techs” to help others and yourself? Time to upgrade your tools!
