Welcome,
Our desire is to help you navigate the Holidays.
Are you wondering how you will survive the weeks surrounding Thanksgiving and Christmas? Are you dreading these holidays, knowing that everything has changed and that happy memories from past years can’t be recreated?
Our Surviving the Holidays seminar is especially for people who are grieving a loved one’s death. At this one time seminar you’ll learn: How to deal with the many emotions you’ll face during the holidays, what to do about traditions and other coming changes, helpful tips for surviving social events and how to discover hope for your future.
A Surviving the Holidays event lasts for about two hours. You’ll be welcomed by warm, caring people who understand what you are going through and who want to help. During the seminar, we will: (1) Watch a 40-minute video, filled with practical holiday survival tips and the real-life stories of people who have navigated the season after their loved one’s death. (2) Hear other seminar attendees explain how they are dealing with the holidays. (3) Have the opportunity to share how grief is affecting you. (No pressure—this is optional. We want you to feel comfortable.). (4) Receive a personal copy of the GriefShare Holiday Survival Guide. Be sure to register for this event by October 23, 2024 so that we can have a your copy of the GriefShare Holiday Survival Guide ready.
