Today marks the first day of fall. As the trees let go of their leaves each fall, we’re reminded of the natural cycles of life.

Grief, too, has seasons. There are times when holding on feels necessary and times when letting go, little by little, becomes part of healing.

Just as trees release their leaves to prepare for rest and renewal, we can allow ourselves to release small pieces of pain, guilt, or regret when we’re ready.

Letting go doesn’t mean forgetting. It means making space for comfort, peace, and even moments of beauty to return in their own season.

If you’re in a season of grief right now, may this fall remind you: you don’t have to let go all at once. Healing can come slowly, leaf by leaf. 💙🍁

Did you know that even just 10 minutes outside a day can lift your mood? This month’s article, ‘The Healing Power of Nature in the Grieving Process’ shares how brief time outdoors can help ground us, ease stress, and gently support healing during loss.

Grief can feel heavier as the seasons change, but even the smallest acts of care can bring moments of comfort.

Try one of these this week:
✨ Light a fall-scented candle
✨ Take a short walk under the changing leaves
✨ Make a warm drink and spend a few minutes journaling
✨ Call someone you trust for a quick check-in
✨ Sit outside (ideally in the sun) for 10 minutes

Small steps can make a big difference. Which one will you try first?

Autumn brings many changes; shorter days, cooler air, and shifting routines. For those who are grieving, these seasonal changes can stir up unexpected emotions. 🍁

Some common triggers include:
- Back-to-school season and shifting family routines
- The early arrival of darker evenings
- Cooler weather that keeps us indoors
- The approaching holidays, which may feel different after a loss

How to prepare:
- Acknowledge that these feelings are normal
- Make small comforting routines (a daily walk, lighting a candle, journaling)
- Reach out for connection, even if it’s just a short call with someone you trust
- Give yourself grace - grief can feel heavier during seasonal changes

Remember: noticing these shifts early can help you care for yourself with more kindness. You’re not alone in feeling the weight of this season. 💙

September can be a difficult time for many. Even with the sun still shining, the return to routine, back-to-school season are early signs of fall and winter and can bring a sense of sadness or emotional weight, especially for those who are grieving.

As the seasons shift, many people notice a change in their mood - this is often referred to as the ‘fall blues.’ Seasonal depression is common, and the shift toward shorter, cooler days of staying inside can make feelings of loss and loneliness feel heightened or more intense.

So, this month we're opening a conversation about how the changing seasons can impact grief. Whether you’ve recently lost someone or are navigating ongoing feelings of loss and stress, you’re not alone.

If you're feeling this way, stay tuned and follow us for support as we share gentle guidance, supportive tips, and reminders to help you through the season.
