TOOL #3
What if you needed to move a large piece of furniture, or a television, you would realize this is a two person or maybe even a three person job and ask for help to avoid injury. Asking for help is not weakness, it’s an act of care for yourself. Family and friends often want to support you; they may just need guidance on how to show up. Be clear about what you need, whether it’s a listening ear, a meal, or a quiet walk.
Remember: your grief is valid, and your way is the right way.

The holidays can feel especially heavy after loss. Joy and sorrow often sit side by side, and that is okay. Grief doesn’t disappear because the season is festive, and it often shows up in unexpected ways.

From today through Christmas Eve, we are sharing Holiday Survival Tools, gentle, practical reflections meant to support anyone navigating the holidays while grieving. Each day will offer a simple tool focused on grounding, emotional care, and finding steadiness during a difficult season.

We are just getting started with only 6 days until Christmas Eve. We’ll be doubling up on some days, so every tool still has space to be shared.

Whether you follow along for one tool or all nine, know this: You are not alone. Your experience matters. And it’s okay to move through this season in whatever way feels right for you.

We invite you to join us one tool, one day at a time.
