We’re feeling grateful after a recent weekend of facilitator training with volunteers committed to supporting grieving children and families. 💜

They learned that the most meaningful support comes not from fixing grief, but from listening, validating, and simply being present.

Thank you to our volunteers—the heart of Mourning Hope.

🤗💜 January 21 is National Hugging Day — a simple reminder of the power of connection.

A hug that lasts just 20 seconds can do more than you might think. Research shows it can help reduce stress, support heart health, lift your mood, and offer meaningful comfort — especially for those navigating grief.

✨ Why hugs matter:

Encourage connection: A steady hug helps remind us we’re not alone.

Ease stress: Hugs can lower cortisol and promote a sense of calm.

Support emotional balance: They activate the body’s natural “rest and digest” response.

Offer comfort: Sometimes, a hug says what words can’t.

Whether you share a hug with someone you love or take a quiet moment for a self-hug, pause for 20 seconds and let that connection do its work. Even small moments of care can make a big difference. 🫂
