Losing a loved one is one of the most challenging experiences of one’s life. After a loved one passes, families can experience devastation, confusion, guilt, and regret. The road to healing can be challenging to navigate if essential needs and feelings are not appropriately addressed.

The mourning process can take an extensive amount of time to work through. Staying in touch and gathering with others should not end immediately after the death occurs. Try to continue to gather together throughout the entire grieving process.

What is a Memorial Service?

A Memorial Service is similar to a Funeral Service, but it does not involve the presence of a body. Memorial services offer significant flexibility, allowing families additional time to come together and honor their loved one. It is quite common for a memorial service to take place over a month after the individual has passed away.

Here are some tips for drinking more water:

-- Make it part of your routine
Drink water before meals, after using the bathroom, or when you brush your teeth. You can also try using a high-tech water bottle that connects to your phone to track your intake.

-- Add flavor
Try infusing your water with fruit or vegetables to make it more appealing. You can also add herbs like mint for a flavorful kick.

-- Keep a water bottle handy
Keeping a reusable water bottle with you throughout the day can help you drink more water, especially if you're on the go.
