When a loved one repeats the same question for the tenth time... when sunset stirs agitation... when sleep is thin and patience is thinner do you wish you had the exact words to bring calm?

Puso at Alaga is a gentle Tagalog-English pocket guide that gives you short scripts, tiny routines, and faith-rooted practices you can use today so home feels kinder, safer, and more connected.

You are not alone in this sacred work. Hindi ka nag-iisa. Whether you're an adult child, a spouse, or a family caregiver, this warm, practical book meets you where you are. It blends compassionate mindfulness, simple stress relief tools, and faith-filled encouragement to help you navigate hard moments with dignity -- while caring for your own heart, too.

Inside, you'll discover:

• Bilingual "say this / try this" scripts for common challenges -- sundowning, wandering, repetitive questions, bath refusal, and more.


• "Sige po, Nanay, andito lang ako." (Okay, Mom, I'm right here.)

• "Tara po, magpahinga muna tayo." (Let's take a short rest.)

• "Ligtas ka, hawak ko ang kamay mo." (You're safe; I'm holding your hand.)


• 10-minute mini-flows for mornings, evenings, clinic days, and bedtime that reduce overwhelm and build peaceful rhythms.

• Dignity-first communication using familiar Filipino terms (Nanay/Tatay, po/opo) with English equivalents for blended families.

• Mindful breath prayers & short meditations for quick self-care, emotional reset, and inner peace -- for you and your loved one.

• "Hinga muna isa... dalawa... tatlo... apat. Panginoon, gabayan Mo kami." (Breathe... Lord, guide us.)


• Checklists & mini-plans for home safety, appointments, and first legal/financial steps -- so you can plan ahead with confidence.

• Family harmony prompts to lower conflict among siblings and co-caregivers and keep everyone rowing in the same direction.


• "Pwede bang mag-usap tayo nang mahinahon?" (Can we talk calmly?)

• "Iisa ang layunin natin: alaga na may dignidad." (We share one goal: dignity-first care.)
