|
Journey through the Infinite Mind takes the reader on an exploration of the basic neuroscience of dementia and how its progression affects the brain and perceptions of the person experiencing it. The spirituality is theoretical and metaphysical in nature. It addresses the question, "If we are spiritual beings having a human experience, what could be the spiritual purpose to millions of souls living with dementia?" Included are practical tips on care giving intermingled with first person narratives and empathy building exercises which enable the reader to step into the shoes of a person with dementia. The information in this book is designed to raise questions and encourage the reader to think for themselves;formulating their own opinions. It presents an opportunity to see beyond the physical losses and disabilities and gain a more spiritual perspective of what the dementia experience could be.

This book helped me to better understand the challenges my best friend is facing in the earlier stages of Alzheimer's. The information in this book enabled me to develop a different viewpoint of my mother's needs and those of my own in her final months with dementia. At ninety two years old, its been emotionally exhausting dealing with memory loss and gradual cognitive decline. This information has given me a new perspective about what I'm experiencing and how it applies to my own spiritual belief and practice.
