🌿 Hello February! Here’s a gentle reminder for today:

Incorporating small daily routines—such as stretching, enjoying fresh air, or savoring a quiet cup of coffee—can significantly impact how we manage stress. Prioritizing self-care is one of the most beneficial habits you can cultivate.

In grief, we often want to run and distract ourselves, but it follows us. The brave act of healing is to face the hurt, acknowledge the loss, and sit with the sadness. This isn’t about dwelling in sorrow but allowing yourself to feel and nurture your wounds gently. Healing means moving through grief, one moment at a time.

In times of grief, our instinct may be to flee or seek distractions, yet the pain tends to linger. The courageous journey of healing involves confronting the hurt, recognizing the loss, and embracing the sadness. This process isn't about wallowing in despair; rather, it is about permitting yourself to experience and tenderly care for your wounds. Healing entails navigating through grief, one moment at a time.
