The holiday season can make grief feel especially isolating, so it's important to communicate your needs, and take some time out for self-care and to hold space for your emotions.

P.s. don't forget to check in on one another, too 💜

A lot of our families ask us: “What actually happens to someone after they die?”

It’s one of those big questions a lot of people wonder about - but don’t always feel comfortable asking.

So our Managing Director, Asha, is here to break it down for you. Step by step. No fluff, no weird vibes, just the real post-mortem process.

And yep, I started talking about my friend’s auntie… but now I’m talking about you. So let’s pretend you’ve just died (go with me here) - here’s exactly what happens next.

Christmas can be a challenging time for those who have lost a loved one. 🎄

The festive season, filled with traditions and memories, often brings a heightened sense of their absence. But it can also be an opportunity to celebrate the life they lived and the love they brought into your world. Honouring their memory during this special time can bring comfort and keep their spirit alive.

Here are a few meaningful ways to remember your loved one this Christmas:

Create a Tribute Decoration
Dedicate an ornament or a special decoration on your tree to them. It could be something that represents their personality, a shared memory, or simply their favourite colour. Each year, this can become a cherished moment of reflection.

🕯️Light a Candle in Their Honour
Lighting a candle during your family gathering or on Christmas Eve can be a gentle way to feel their presence. You might even share a few words about what they meant to you before lighting the flame.

🧁Cook or Bake Their Favourite Christmas Treat
Recreate a dish or dessert they loved. Sharing it with friends and family can spark conversations and stories about them, turning the moment into a warm celebration of their life.

🌴Visit a Place They Loved
Whether it’s their favourite park, beach, or a spot they cherished, spending some time there can bring a sense of closeness and provide a peaceful space to reflect.

🍽️Include Them in Your Christmas Traditions
Set a place at the table for them, hang their stocking, or incorporate a toast in their memory. Small acts like these can feel comforting and inclusive.

🫶Give in Their Honour
Consider donating to a charity or cause that was close to their heart. This can be a powerful way to ensure their legacy continues to make a difference.

The holidays are never the same after loss, and it’s okay to feel a mix of emotions.

How do you honour someone special during the festive season? Share your thoughts below—we’d love to hear them.
