Loss and Bereavement.

Facing daily routines can feel daunting when dealing with the loss of a loved one. Emotions can feel heightened with a mixture of memories, often resulting in a sense of sadness, pain, loneliness, and isolation. There maybe also feelings of guilt in celebrating with others.

Here are some ideas which may help support you:
Be kind to yourself, take time to eat, rest, and relax,
There are no rules in what you can or cannot do,
Take time to remember your loved one in marking their memory,
Give yourself permission to miss them, but also permission to laugh and have fun,
Give others permission to enjoy,
Be sensitive to the needs of others when talking to them,
Talk to someone you feel safe and can trust.
