🍂 Does fall ever stir up old memories for you?
Changing seasons can bring waves of grief, a favorite holiday tradition, the smell of autumn air, or the reminder of time passing. Seasonal grief is real, and it can feel heavier when the world around us is shifting.
If you’re feeling it this fall, know you’re not alone. Give yourself grace and lean into small moments of comfort.
