When Christmas Hurts: Grief at Christmas and How To Look After Yourself

Christmas can stir up lots of grief, whether it is grief we are experiencing now, or grief from many years ago. 

In this episode, I cover:

- Why Christmas can intensify the feelings of grief. 

- Why it's important to give ourselves permission to do things differently. 

- Reduce pressure and expectations of ourselves during the festive season. 

- How our nervous system handles grief. 

 - How connection with ourselves, others, the world and nature is so important during the grieving process 

- How joy during grief can feel painful.
