Grief is hard 🫶

2025/1/15 Edited to

... Read moreGrieving the loss of a loved one can take a significant toll on an individual's mental health. It's important to remember that you're not alone in this journey. Engaging with community support, like the hashtags #griefsupport and #moms, can provide comfort and connection during these difficult times. Sharing your feelings and memories can help in the healing process. Regularly checking on your mental health and expressing emotions associated with grief is essential. Bear in mind the importance of reaching out to others. Encourage friends and family to check on those who may be struggling quietly. Remember to engage in self-care practices that promote emotional well-being. Activities like journaling, dedicating time to reflect on memories, or even seeking professional help can serve as beneficial avenues for processing your emotions. Healing takes time, and every individual's journey is unique. Envelop yourself in the love and support of your community while honoring your loved one's memory. Stay strong and keep their spirit alive in your heart.

Grief is hard.
Today I am repurposing a impulse buy that was bought out of grief for my late aunt. She loved elephants, collected them, she had them everywhere. Well when she passed, I didn’t know how to feel. I hardly cried, I don’t know if it was because it still felt like she was here or if I was just a psycho

The Grief of Letting Go
I almost had a relapse into my old life. Nostalgia almost made me backtrack but something inside me said no it’s a trick. It’s OK to reminisce on old feelings, but it’s not OK to run back to comfort. You have to remind yourself why you can no longer be around certain spirits. You have to remind you

Move through grief with this 5-minute yoga flow.
When emotions feel heavy, the best thing you can do is breathe and move with it. Heavy emotions from grief can build up in your chest, hips, and back — making you feel tense, anxious, or disconnected from your body. Sometimes it’s hard to even take a full breath when your heart is hurting. Th

Overeating and Grief
I’ve always been an emotional eater. Happy, sad, stressed—you name it. I managed to keep that in check but this grief just brought that side of me back. I gained about 10 pounds in a week, and I feel unmotivated and stuck. Just trying to get a grip on myself before I spiral too far. #Emotional

If your hips feel tight, heavy, or full when you’re grieving, try this gentle hip opener tonight. When we experience loss, our nervous system shifts into fight, flight, or freeze to protect us from overwhelming pain. That protection shows up in the body, especially in the hips. The pelvis and

How God is present through my grief
Mourning the loss of a loved one is inevitable. God comforts all of us. Each one of us may experience God’s comfort in a different way. This is my process with God. 1️⃣ Allow myself to grieve. I cry ugly tears to get it all out. That is my way of releasing my worries, fears, anxieties, and pain

Try this tapping to calm when grief feels heavy.
Some days grief can feel so heavy causing the chest to tighten, making it hard to breathe steadily. Tapping through it helped my chest soften and breath come back. Try this next time grief tightens your chest and the future feels heavy. #grief #griefsupport #griefhealing #griefjourney
