Here is a video I did on page 16, of my Holiday and Special Occasion Guide.
https://youtu.be/i6q5RNQYDMs Special occasions can be a time of joy and anticipation but for people who’ve recently lost a loved one, the weeks between Thanksgiving and New Years can seem like a minefield of anxiety, anger and depression not to mention Valentine day, birthdays and anniversaries. For a grieving person, anxiety and sadness is normal and part of the healing process. Our mistake is trying to keep everything the same as if our life was still normal. It’s not normal, in fact it has been forever changed, so the best approach is to face it head on and be prepared. https://sisterhoodofwidows.com/product/holidays-and-special-occasions/ Mary Francis The Sisterhood of Widows, widows, holiday grief, widows and holidays, holiday supportAll Blog Postings by Mary

My Holiday and Special Occasion Guide was created because it’s hard to get through the special occasions and holidays while grieving the loss of our loved one. This guide will help you to do some planning and it’s the perfect map for your journey through all the occasions, with all their emotional up’s and down’s.
