Embracing Resilience
As a young person, life seems to be in a constant state of flux at all times. Some people cope well with it. They’re able to embrace the uncertainty and adapt quickly to new routines. Others find change more challenging, and quite an unsettling and uncomfortable experience.
Festive fear
Every year it feels as though Christmas creeps earlier and earlier into our consciousness. For many, it can be the most painful time of year. It’s a time that’s laden with memories of loved ones no longer around, rudely highlighted by the missing space at the table. Family traditions seep into non-existence as these rituals become too painful to perform without the people there that made it so special.
Guilt-free grief?
When we lose someone we love, we lose our way of life before their death. Things we once enjoyed become a different experience, charged with all kinds of different emotions and memories. Guilt is often quick to strike and can strip us of the joy we once had.
