Navigating Holiday Grief: Sharing Experiences, Honoring Traditions, and Prioritizing Self-Care

Hearts of Caregiving: Nurturing the Souls of Caregivers

Do the holidays bring a rollercoaster of emotions for you, too? You're not alone, and we're here to journey with you. Join us, your host, Mary C Hartfield, Valda Branison, and Jeanine Marbury Bryant, as we open our hearts and share our personal experiences of facing grief during the festive season. Together, we explore the different stages of grief and how time shapes our grieving process. We talk about the importance of cherishing the memories of our loved ones and how we find solace in honoring them during these special occasions. With our shared experiences as our guide, we offer insights on managing grief during these potentially tough times.
Ever wondered how to navigate through holiday grief while also caring for yourself? We’ve been there, and we’re here to share our coping strategies. Self-care is paramount, and we discuss how simple routines like walks, breathing exercises, and setting boundaries can make a world of difference. Our conversation takes us to traditions – those we hold dear and those we create anew. We traverse the challenging terrain of expressing grief within the family and how it can lead to the creation of new memories. We're here to remind you that grief's okay and you're never alone. So, join us in this heartfelt conversation, and remember, we are in this together.
