✨ On this Labor Day weekend, many are planning barbecues, trips, and time with family. But if you’re grieving, the long weekend can feel heavy instead of restful. You are not alone. We see you, and we invite you to take a moment to rest, even in your grief.
💛 Holidays can magnify loss. When others gather and celebrate at gatherings, you may experience the empty chair even more deeply. The unseen labor of grief might be all you can feel in this moment. This weekend, give yourself permission to rest. This feeling will pass, hope will come, and easier days are ahead of you.
🌿 One step you can take in your grief journey this weekend: connect with a local GriefShare group, in-person and online: https://heal.gs/46mdz4f
