No one really talks about this part of life after partner loss…

When something new begins to feel possible…
and instead of excitement,
you feel fear.
Guilt.
A panicked urge to pull away.

This is fresh for me,
still a bit raw and vulnerable.

But these questions have come up recently in conversations with other widows so I wanted to share.

How do we trust what we’re feeling?
Is it self-protection?
Self-sabotage?
Not the right person?
Or not being ready?

How can I love again…
while still being in love with someone
I can no longer hold?

A mentor once shared with me that new love as a widow is like loving a second child.
It doesn’t diminish the love of the first.
Love is infinite.

And still…
the fears linger.
The confusion.
The questions without answers.

Just a heart learning how to love with love and loss.

Does any of this resonate? Sending love to you 🤍

When the grief waves hit,
it can feel like you’re going to be swept away.

One moment you’re okay…
and the next,
you’re under.

Not knowing which way is up.
Feeling like you can’t catch your breath.

With body-based practices & awareness,
I began to recognize when the waves were coming…

the way a surfer learns to read the water.

And I learned how to anchor myself.

My breath.
My feet on the ground.
Noticing the space around me.

They seem so simple…
but in those moments,
they can offer just enough steadiness,
to find the ground beneath you.

These are some of the practices I’ve included
in my free Partner Loss Journal…

If you’d like a copy,
you can DM or comment: “JOURNAL” 🤍

And I’d love to hear…
what has helped you?

We’re not taught how to be with sorrow.

So we try to fix it…
avoid it…
or carry it alone.

But grief isn’t a problem to be solved.
It’s not something to push through or get over.

It’s a deep encounter
with what it means to be human.

I came across this poem by Denise Levertov in the book “The Wild Edge of Sorrow:
Rituals of Renewal & the Sacred Work of Grief
Francis Weller speaks about grief as an apprenticeship with sorrow…

… “Learning we can be with our grief…
is the first task of our apprenticeship”.

She writes about the importance of expressing our sorrows and stories of loss,

and of developing practices that deepen our capacity to hold the emotions without being overwhelmed

🤍 I would love to hear how this resonates with you.

What has helped you “speak of sorrow”?
What has helped you “be with” your grief?

When it all feels like too much to hold,

I hope this journal can offer you
even just a little support,

to care for yourself inside your grief,
to find a little space to breathe,
to honour your feelings.

It’s not always the big moments that break you.
It’s the everyday ones.

The ones you can’t prepare for.
The reminders of the little details of the life that lived between you.

In the first few years, those were the waves that knocked me over.

Over these past twelve years, they’ve shifted.
They feel a little softer now…

like a wink or a whisper from Drew.

His presence woven into the everyday.

🤍Sending love to all of you who know this feeling,
the ache,
the absence,
and the love woven into the memories

I’ve been here.

Writing. Reflecting. Creating.

Pouring my heart into something I wish I had when my world collapsed.

🤍 Holding Grief With Love

Grief changes everything.

Not only emotionally, but in the body, the mind,
and our sense of safety in the world.

After my husband Drew died, writing became one of the first places where I could tend to my grief.

But I also learned how important it is to care for our nervous system when processing intense emotions.

This carousel shares a writing ritual and practice that helped me. I hope it might offer a little support to some of you out there navigating loss.

In this carousel you’ll find a brief version of the process:
• a grounding ritual
• writing invitations
• a closing practice

Small, compassionate ways to help make writing a safer place to process grief.

If you’d like the full printable guides, I’ve created two:

WRITE – writing & somatic practices for grief and all types of loss
PARTNER – writing & somatic practices for those navigating the death of a partner

Just DM WRITE or PARTNER and I’ll send them to you.

Save this post for the days you need a little extra care, and feel free to share it with someone whose heart is hurting right now. 🤍

You’re not losing your mind.
You’re grieving.

If you’ve ever:

– Put your keys in the fridge
– Forgotten entire conversations
– Read the same sentence five times and still not absorbed it
– Felt completely paralyzed by simple decisions
– Walked into a room and had no idea why

Please know, there’s nothing wrong with you.
It’s “grief brain”.

When we lose someone we love, the nervous system shifts into survival mode.

Your body is working overtime to process shock, attachment rupture, and overwhelming stress.

And when survival takes priority, higher-level thinking goes offline.

Memory.
Concentration.
Planning.
Decision-making.

It can feel terrifying. I remember thinking,
“Something is seriously wrong with me.”

Grief isn’t just emotional.
It’s neurological.
It’s physiological.
It’s whole-body.

And while it takes time for the brain to recalibrate, self-care, self-compassion, and nervous system support (breath, movement, grounding, co-regulation) can help.

If this is you right now, please be gentle with yourself.

🤍 Save this for the days you forget why you’re forgetting. And share with someone who needs some extra care and compassion.

And if you’d like my writing practice with somatic techniques (a process that helped me through my toughest days) please DM me.

Sending you love and light 🤍

After Drew died, I struggled to talk to people.

Everything felt overwhelming and confusing.
I couldn’t make sense of my own feelings, and felt no one else could understand.

Writing became the place where I could let everything tumble out, without needing it to make sense.

It helped me understand and validate my own experience, and over time, it made it a little easier to share with others.

Turns out there’s significant research behind this.
Psychologist Dr. James Pennebaker, one of the pioneers of expressive writing research, found that writing about emotional experiences can reduce stress, support emotional processing, and even improve aspects of physical and psychological health.

The process of putting feelings into words helps the brain organize our experiences, which can ease some of the internal overwhelm.

At the same time, writing about difficult emotions is hard. It can bring up a lot, which is why it’s so important to care for ourselves and nurture a sense of safety in the body as we process grief.

I’ve created a self-care writing ritual, along with a few simple prompts, to support you if you think writing could be helpful for you.

✨Comment WRITE or send me a DM and I’ll share it with you.

✨And if you’re looking for more in-depth support, I currently have three spaces open for individual grief coaching and would be honoured to connect.

With love, 🤍 Eva

It wasn’t courage, it was grief.

If you know me, you know it’s been a struggle to share my story.

For a long time, grief came with shame, isolation, and the feeling that I didn’t belong anywhere anymore…
like I was somehow doing it wrong.

But the more people I work with, the more I see how common that feeling is, and how much we need spaces where our grief is welcome,
where we can share our stories, feelings, experiences,
where our love and our losses can be honoured and held.

And so I share this, not with answers, not as a “call to action” but as a gentle reminder that there is no right way, no wrong way, only your way.

Sending love to anyone out there carrying pain today. You’re not alone. 🤍

Writing didn’t help me “let go.”
It helped me stay connected.

It gave me somewhere for the love, the memories, the anger, and the longing to go.

In the hardest days, it became one of the only places my grief could breathe.

If this speaks to you, comment WRITE or send me a DM, and I’ll share a few simple writing practices that supported me in the hardest days 🤍

Grief changes everything.

Not just how you feel, but how you move through your days, how your body functions, your relationships, your sense of who you are.

If you’ve lost someone you love.

If you’re grieving a job, your health, a relationship, or a future that didn’t happen.

If you feel like you’re “holding it together” on the outside while inside you just want to scream and fall apart…

You don’t have to do this alone.

I offer compassionate, nervous-system-informed grief coaching for people learning how to live in the “this isn’t how it was supposed to be”.

Not to “fix” your grief or make you “move on,” but to help you feel more supported, resourced, and less alone as you carry it.

✨ My website is going live tomorrow with more details about how I work, who this is for, and how to book a free connection call. Or feel free to DM me if you’re wondering if this might be a fit for you or someone you care about.
