We tend to put pressure on ourselves to achieve things every day, especially at the start of a new year.

But it’s important to remember that what we’re capable of achieving can change and is very much dependent on how we’re feeling, what we’re experiencing and what energy or headspace we have.

So aim to do your best, but be kind to yourself when your best looks different from day to day.

Engaging with their possessions, their photos or their favourite music/food are a few ways in which you can maintain a connection with them.
This is a normal, healthy way to grieve at Christmas and whenever it feels right for you.
