August 30 is National Grief Awareness Day

Grief is a universal experience that can take many forms. While it often follows the loss of a loved one, grief can also arise from the end of relationships, major life changes, or other forms of loss, including those that aren't always acknowledged by others. Everyone’s journey with grief is different. For some, healing may come with time and support. For others, grief can be overwhelming and deeply impact daily life.

National Grief Awareness Day was founded by Angie Cartwright in 2014 to help end the silence and stigma around grief. It is a call to compassion, encouraging us to acknowledge grief in ourselves and others, and to hold space for the many ways it shows up.

At Native American LifeLines, we recognize that grief is not one-size-fits-all. We are here to support our community with resources, care, and culturally informed mental health services.

If you're in need of support, please reach out: www.bit.ly/NALsupport

SUMMER...SUMMER...TIME!!! Hey, relatives!!! We have a nice book to get you through to August!! (Yes, we are taking a break for July.)

Our next meeting August 13th, at 7 pm via Zoom.
Black Sun (Between Earth and Sky) by Rebecca Roanhorse
In the holy city of Tova, the winter solstice is usually a time for celebration and renewal, but this year it coincides with a solar eclipse, a rare celestial even proscribed by the Sun Priest as an unbalancing of the world.

Meanwhile, a ship launches from a distant city bound for Tova and set to arrive on the solstice. The captain of the ship, Xiala, is a disgraced Teek whose song can calm the waters around her as easily as it can warp a man’s mind. Her ship carries one passenger. Described as harmless, the passenger, Serapio is a young man, blind, scarred, and cloaked in destiny. As Xiala well knows, when a man is described as harmless, he usually ends up being a villain.
