120: 3 Ideas to Support You Through the Holidays

Holiday season is a time for happiness and making good memories with your loved ones.

How can a grieving mom experience true happiness if she is still having intense pain and longing for her child?

In these special holiday episodes,I am going to help you in going through this holiday season.

Here are my practical tips for you:

 

1. Have a plan A, plan, B, and plan C.

Because you truly don’t know when a grief wave will hit, and it’s helpful to have something else you can do if you are just not feeling it that day.

 

2.  Let go of judgement of how your grief is supposed to be and ride the waves as they come.

Let yourself grieve, and if you do have moments of joy, allow those to come without judgment.

3. Allow yourself to say NO.

 Use no freely. When you are in deep grief, your tank is beyond empty and you have nothing left to give to others.

If you want more tools to help you, I have a workshop called Stop Talking, Start Feeling, it’s a workshop that dives into emotions, what they are, and how you can begin to feel and process them and get them out of your body instead of stuffing them down. It also goes specifically into processing and releasing the emotions of guilt and sadness. You can get access to this workshop and all the extra things I have in there for FREE ( limited time only). Go to www.stoptalkingstartfeeling.com to check it out. 

If you want to dive deeper and have a coach who understands grief, and triggers, and what it’s like to be walking with child loss grief, message me at [email protected] and we can chat about how I can help you on your grief journey.
