To start, keep moving. Practice positive emotions. Maintain community. And remember it’s never too early to face death, as nuns typically begin planning their funeral when they retire, or even before.

Modern cremation can point to Italy in the late 1800s as its starting point, and with its rise in North America in 1913 the demand for cremation urns rose with the desire to keep loved ones close. That same sentiment remains now as it did 100 years ago, with the urn achieving the same dignity as a headstone. Send us a message here if you want to know what options we have available.

This is an alternative to both the traditional burial and scattered ashes.

While it is important to strengthen your self-love muscles, it is just as important to get the support from others. Whether this is from friends or family, getting help from others can make a big difference. Sometimes just the reassurance that you are not the only one who gets stuck or has moments of self-doubt can help you shift a “why me” attitude.
