When we experience loss, we remember the date and that date can be a painful reminder of our loss. It can cause pain but does not have to remain that way.

As you approach the anniversary, remember to:

Care for you first

Crying is okay if you want too

Don't do it alone- surround yourself with people

Ask for help

Practice gratitude

Accept where you are and look to a brighter future

 HERE is a useful self care activity checklist you can use on anniversaries and even everyday.
