Taking Flight International Corporation

Taking Flight International Corporation Dr. Simington is a Grief and Trauma Management Specialist- Reinventing Joy and Self-Empowerment During those early years of grief I desperately sought healing.

My vision began to take root some years after the tragic death of my 13 year old son, Billy. In my search I frequently attended grief workshops and read numerous grief books. While each offered valuable information on grief, none provided the healing I needed to mend my broken heart, my fractured soul. What I learned in my search I now share with others, through Key note presentations, in my books and resources, and through teaching the application of these methods to therapists and other therapeutic healers. I have designed and developed two certification training programs, The Trauma Recovery Certification Program, and the Grief Support Certification Program. Certification in both programs can be transferred for credit toward a Master’s Degree in Counseling.

September’s Grace: A Reflection on Abundance and Spirit
©Jane A. Simington PhD.
As September unfolds, the gardens begin to quiet. The riot of Summer color softens into golden hues, and the air carries a whisper of change. It is a time when the harvest has mostly been gathered, when pantries brim with jars of preserves, and root cellars echo with the weight of bounty. There is a sacred stillness in this moment—a pause between the labor of growth and the rest of Winter.

August Abundance: Celebrations of Harvest and Heart
Jane A. Simington PhD. August 2025

August arrives with a golden glow, bringing with it the richness of Nature’s bounty. Gardens overflow, farmers’ markets brim with color, and kitchens come alive with the scent of ripe tomatoes, and sun-kissed fruit. Across cultures and generations, the harvest season has been a time of connection, celebration, and gratitude. From Lammas in Celtic tradition—marking the first wheat harvest—to North American fall fairs and Indigenous ceremonies honoring the land, August has long been a month of gathering and giving thanks...

From Sunrise to Soulrise. A July Reflection on Light, Strength, and Rising Through Adversity
©Jane A. Simington PhD. July 2025

When the July sun spills across the landscape, it doesn’t just awaken fields and forests—it stirs something radiant within us too. There is a kind of magic in the way sunlight touches everything—coaxing blossoms from buds, hope from weariness, and strength from stillness.
On a bike ride this morning, I was in awe watching the sun ascend the horizon. The experience reminded me of a song my daughter sang after returning from a summer camping experience at St. John Bosco Camp in Northern Saskatchewan. I credit the unknown author at the camp for the lyrics.

Lessons From the Lake: A Father’s Day Message
Jane A. Simington PhD. June 2025
A Dad is someone who holds you when you cry, scolds you when you break the rules, shines with pride when you succeed, and has faith in you even when you fail.
The above quote by an unknown author emphasizes the unconditional love and support exemplified by my children’s Father, and my Grandsons’ Grandfather. His love extends from his frequent presence and involvement in their lives to the life lessons he teaches by relating stories of his challenges and successes. His modeling and encouragement have contributed to our daughters becoming successful professional women and to our Grandsons, now young men, still looking up to their Granddad, regardless of how tall they have grown.
For a few years, my husband has taken our Grandsons on fishing trips. The following scenario combines details of lessons taught and learned during those times.
