Learn moreComforting words and practical ideas for living with loss.
Everyone experiences grief differently after the loss of a loved one. Some people find solace in comforting quotes and warm words, while others feel a need to take action—to do something to memorialize their loss. And some benefit from both approaches. Here’s a path forward for you, no matter how you process your grief.
Your Grief, Your Way features:
· Multiple ways to process grief: Find relief through short meditations, mindful reframings, journaling prompts, concrete actions, and more.
· A year of daily messages of comfort: Each daily segment includes a quote and a short paragraph about grief along with a practical tip—something you can do to tend to your grief.
· Comfort and practicality in short spurts: Discover strength and support in these bite-size nuggets, since grief reduces the ability to focus.
· Quotes from a wide range of grievers: Take courage from the thoughtful words of people who have been in your shoes.
Whether you’re looking for inspiration, a practical way to honor your loved one, or both, Your Grief, Your Way helps you navigate life after loss
