Thoughtful Remembrance

Good morning and welcome back to another blog. Today, I’ll be exploring the idea of thoughtful remembrance and how you can support yourself or someone dear to you dealing with bereavement. 

So if you’d like some thoughtful remembrance ideas then keep reading. 

The importance of ongoing remembrance

After we lose someone we love, it’s important to remember that grief has no ‘one size fits all’. Whilst for a lot of us, we follow the proven stages of grief, others of us take a different path. 

Firstly, please know that whatever path you take, it’s ok. You will get through this. Life will be different but with some support from loved ones and plenty of self-care, you will come out the other side of this storm. It’s a proven fact that avoidance of trauma can lead to repercussions in the future. Many psychologists will recommend talking therapy as a coping strategy. For many of us however, the idea of opening up to a complete stranger is simply too daunting. That’s why I recommend a ‘continued connection’

Comfort from continued connection 

As I’ve explained in previous blogs, many of us struggling with grief will choose to avoid celebration days, Birthdays of loved ones and Holidays, for fear of spiralling back into sadness and the all consuming feeling that grief brings. Sadly, avoidance as explained above can lead to feelings of resent and guilt later on down the line and can actually cause more harm than good. 

‘If Heaven had a Postcode’ my flagship remembrance book, encourages comfort from continued connection. Not only will it hold your hand through the darkest of times, but it contains proven therapy and specialist techniques used in interviews to help you process trauma whilst encouraging uplifting remembrance through continued connection. 

Rid feelings of guilt and regret by following the guided memorial pages. Grow memories of happier times and build a lasting legacy to remember someone precious to you always. 

A gift of endless love and memories 

Whether you choose to buy the book for yourself, for a colleague, friend or loved one, this cleverly adapted book is the ideal thoughtful gift for anyone who has experienced loss. 

Spend time with children and support them through their loss whilst becoming stronger together. Scrapbook memories of times past and write letters to them as though they were still with you. 

Not only will you say all of those things you wish you’d said, you’ll embark on a journey through the seasons of loss, whilst becoming stronger, realising your own worth and building a forever lasting memorial for your loved one. Ensuring that they are remembered always.

I hope this blog has given you some more information on thoughtful remembrance and how you can support a friend, loved one or colleague through their grief journey. 

Come back later this week where I’ll be sharing some more ideas and information on how to support bereavement. 

Thank you so much for being here,
