Grief Resources

Hands-Down Favorite TV Show on Grief

Listen to the saddest or angriest or most ridiculously lovey love songs on repeat

Journal whole notebooks full of thoughts and illustrations (maybe turn poetry into songs)

Bake the blueberry pie that you used to make together (or other culinary equivalent)

Wear the old flannel shirts of your loved one (without washing them) so you can smell their smell

Perform seemingly impossible feats: run a marathon, climb a mountain, get out of bed in the morning

Mark the memory on your body with a gorgeous tattoo (sometimes with the deceased’s ashes in the ink)

Gather with those who will tell all the juicy stories you’ve not yet heard about the deceased

Visit a rage room to throw and break shit

See a medium(s) to connect with the deceased

Attend religious services to connect with the deceased

Create an altar for Dia de los Muertos and keep it up year-round

Bring coffee and glazed doughnuts (their favorite) to the cemetery every Friday to chat with your loved one at their gravestone

Notice signs of ongoing spiritual presence: numbers, dragonflies, shiny pennies on the ground
