Resource alert. Creating a will can be scary. It can help to get support! This is going to be a meaningful workshop!

A message from one of my November workshop attendees:

"The Beyond the Will workshop turns daunting topics into manageable tasks. Participants are provided with straightforward, actionable steps to take to secure their and their family members' futures. After attending the workshop, I felt like a load was lifted, and now I understand what I need to do to stop procrastinating and start getting organized."

Join me in a small group but private setting on Sunday, February 1st, to get your ducks in a row. More information and registration at the workshop link in bio.

Wisdom that helps explain why a therapeutic relationship is so meaningful!

When I wish you a happy New Year…

When I say ‘happy new year’,
I’m not for a moment,
expecting this to occur,
for that is not possible,
a year must be all things.

Happiness must come and go,
like the tides and the winds,
just as sadness,
and all the emotions in between.

When I say ‘happy new year’,
I’m really wishing you,
a baseline of peace,
of gratitude.

Because if you can sit with these things,
for the most part,
happiness will thrive,
when it does arrive,
and sadness will know its place in the mix.

If you can nourish these things,
daily,
you will also grow hope,
for it flourishes in such soil.

And hope is the key,
to this enigmatic state
of ‘happiness’ we seek.

When I say ‘happy new year’,
I’m really wishing you more happy days,
than sad days,
more joy than misery,
more laughter than tears…
and the wisdom to accept,
that they all belong.

Happy new year, my friends.
Happy new year.

Wisdom for grief in the holidays from Healing Perspectives

12/24/2025

Thank you Wild Grief for this incredible resource. The holidays can be hard when you’re grieving. Be gentle with your tender heart…

We are approaching the longest night of the year. This time of darkness and cold can be really hard. Many of us are facing holidays that have changed in big ways after the death of someone important to us, and can really intensify the feelings of missing them.

To give yourself some extra support and nourishment through this time, we encourage you to check out the Winter Solstice Grief Care Booklet we created last year that includes a link to a guided grief walk, a link to a playlist of songs, recommended books and podcasts, some poetry, tea and simmer pot recipes, and some grief activities.
