Support for widows throughout the Christmas season. An article of support by Karen Sutton.
View in Web Browser  I’ve really noticed in the last week or so everyone is feeling rubbish, there’s a heaviness in the air and people have lost any motivation or spark they may have had. The days are getting colder and shorter and energy levels are dropping. People tell me they’re tired, fed up, sad and generally struggling. And if I’m honest, I’m feeling it too. It’s not my grief, I have just felt unsettled, frustrated and like I want to run away to a warmer climate and switch off. When we feel like this it’s easy to fall into bad habits, 🌻 Eating junk 🌻 Drinking 🌻 Negative thinking 🌻 Disconnecting from yourself, others and life 🌻 Staying still And actually getting into a very negative cycle layering negativity with more negativity. We start to beat ourselves up and focus on all the things we think we can’t do or should be doing better. None of this helps, we really have to become aware of what our mind, body and soul needs and be kinder to ourselves. Remember, start with the basics, 💛 Good food – nourish your body 💛 Plenty of water 💛 Get outside in nature and move your body 💛 Sleep/rest 💛 Connect with those you love It’s not an easy answer, it won’t take it all away, but it will definitely help you work through it more positively. And if you’re feeling like you really want to help your self come and join us here in Cheltenham on the 4th December for what promises to be the most wonderful day. It is a day of hope where you will connect with other widows and surviving partners at a difficult time of the year. I have some wonderful guest speakers lined up, I will be doing a talk on how you can support yourselves better through the festive period, and we are going to get creative.
