Grief And The Holidays
November 2018 Newsletter
Most of us look forward to the sights, sounds, and celebrations of the holiday season. For those who have suffered a loss, however, this time of year presents many challenges, not the least of which is how to make the difficult journey through grief when it seems all those around us are filled with joy.
Our recent article, Managing Grief During the Holidays, offers helpful advice on what you can do to navigate the pitfalls that come with mourning during a festive time. Our website also offers valuable information to help you understand grief and what you can expect when faced with the loss of a loved one.

DEATH POSITIVE QUIZ
If you haven’t heard of the Death Positive Movement you will. The Movement is part of a growing trend that advocates for a more open attitude about the subject of death.
While the Death Positive approach may not be for everyone, it’s something we think you should know about so that you can make up your own mind about where death fits in with the journey through life. Heck, you might already be Death Positive and not even know it. To help you decide we’ve created a little quiz. Why not take it and find out if you are Death Positive?
