I actually didn't realise this was a thing...
🌿 Grief Awareness Week 🌿
At Holistic Healing, we understand that grief touches every part of our being—mind, body, and spirit. It can feel heavy, confusing, or isolating, and there is no “right” way to move through it. What matters is having support, comfort, and moments of rest along the way.
Massage therapy can be a gentle, nurturing space for those navigating loss. Through mindful touch and relaxation, massage helps:
✨ Calm the nervous system
✨ Release emotional tension held in the body
✨ Support deeper breathing and groundedness
✨ Encourage feelings of safety, comfort, and self-compassion
To complement this, I often use carefully chosen essential oils—such as rose for self-love, lavender for calm, chamomile for comfort, bergamot for uplift, and vetiver for grounding. These natural aromas can offer emotional support and help create a peaceful environment for healing.
💛 If you or someone you love is experiencing grief, please know you’re not alone. Taking time to rest, reconnect with your body, and receive support is an important part of the healing journey.
This week and every week, I’m here to hold space for you with compassion, presence, and care.
If you’d like to book a treatment or ask questions, feel free to message me anytime.
With warmth,
Lorraine McCullough
