Instead of stewing over mistakes you’ve made or feeling anxious over what is to come, connect to the present by connecting to your senses. Your senses are always in the moment, so more awareness of them can help you feel grounded in the here and now. For example, tune into each sense, one by one. Start by listening to all the sounds around you, such as the air conditioner or traffic going by. Then, focus on your sight and drink in all of the colors, textures, and depths that surround you. Continue with each sense. Meditation can help you detach from the thoughts that float through your head and connect you with a feeling of peace.

By having an outlet for expression, you can open yourself up deeply instead of hiding behind walls or pretending to be someone you are not. There are no parts of yourself that you need to shun.

Companion animals can provide comfort and joy to a person with AIDS. But animals can also carry parasites that cause infections. Cleaning up after animals for the person can minimize the risk that he or she is infected with a parasite.  Clean up any animal feces for the person, including the kitty litter box. Empty, don’t sift, the cat litter every day. Cat feces can cause toxoplasmosis, while reptiles can carry salmonella and birds may have the fungus cryptococcus or histoplasmosis. Make sure that you and the person with AIDS wash your hands thoroughly after handling pets or cleaning up after animals. Just as coming in contact with animals and their feces can be harmful for a person with AIDS, so can being in the garden. A garden or potting soil often has germs. You and the person should wear work gloves when handling dirt. Washing your hands before and after handling dirt—even with gloves-- is also advisable. Germs can be dangerous for a person with AIDS. Having regular cleaning sessions can help maintain the person’s health and keep infections at bay.  Clean and dust the entire home at least once every week and more often if necessary. Sanitize toilets, tubs, showers, and sinks more frequently and as needed.

If anything is soiled with blood, vomit, semen, vaginal fluids, urine or feces, remove them with disposable gloves. Wash immediately or as soon as you can. If you have to wait to wash the items, put them in plastic bags. A person with AIDS should have his or her own razors, toothbrushes, tweezers, nail or cuticle clippers, and pierced jewelry. Anything that may have the person’s blood on it shouldn’t be shared because it can transmit HIV. You can also transmit infections to someone with AIDS by sharing these types of personal items.
