We’ll explore how to develop a practical plan for coping with loss during the holidays, from finding ways to minimize stress to deciding whether to observe traditions.
About the Event
Someone you love has died. How do you face the holidays and cope with the pain of your loss when everyone around you is so joyful? Holidays are some of the most challenging times to navigate after a loss.
In this webinar, we’ll cover how to make a practical plan for dealing with grief during the holidays. Topics include:
- How to eliminate unnecessary stress
- How to talk about the person who died
- Deciding what to do about traditions
- How to have a “This Will Do” Christmas
- Identifying “triggers” to help minimize holiday grief surprises
- How to take loving care of yourself
Certified Grief Educator™ Garrick Colwell will facilitate this webinar. Garrick holds a “Death and Grief Studies Certification” from The Center for Loss and Life Transitions and collaborates with Hospice Austin on developing innovative grief and bereavement support programs.
