Not only are you faced with constant reminders of holidays past when your loved one was by your side, but the celebratory atmosphere and tidings of joy can feel overwhelming when you\u2019re simply trying to make it through the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re struggling with grief at the holidays, here are ten tips for coping:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>1. Be Honest \u2013 With Yourself and Others<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the best things you can do for yourself during a holiday season of sadness is to be honest about what you want to do, and what you don\u2019t want to do. Forcing yourself to attend all your normal festivities and faking a smile throughout may simply take too much energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>2. Be Intentional About Location<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether you decide to switch things up and spend the holidays in a new location, or continue with past traditions out of a sense of comfort, make a conscious decision about where you\u2019ll spend these challenging days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>3. Let Go of Guilt<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many people feel guilty for failing to send holiday cards or decorate for the season, but remember that there are no rules here. When you\u2019re in grief at the holidays, don\u2019t feel guilty for foregoing certain traditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>4. Join a Grief Support Group<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether virtual or in-person, joining a group of people who are also struggling can be a nice change of pace from all of the holiday merriment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>5. Start a Gratitude Journal<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Journaling is a cathartic exercise, and when you\u2019re jotting down the things you\u2019re grateful for, it can serve as a needed reminder of all the good things in your life, big and small.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>6. Say \u2018Yes\u2019 to Self-Care<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.forevermissed.com\/blog\/five-reasons-to-consider-grief-counseling\/\">Take time to care for your mental, emotional and physical health.<\/a> Make sure you get enough rest, eat right and engage in activities that make you feel less stressed, such as reading a good book or watching your favorite movie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>7. Don\u2019t Overcommit<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is a time in your life when it\u2019s okay to say \u2018no\u2019 \u2013 even to the people and things you have always said \u2018yes\u2019 to before. Save your energy for the most important things, and skip the rest this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>8. Consider a Memorial Activity<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether you choose to make your loved one\u2019s favorite dish, buy a new ornament in their honor or something else more personal to you, <a href=\"http:\/\/forevermissed.com\/creatememorial\/info\">take time to honor and remember the person you have lost<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>9. Have a Good Cry<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It sounds clich\u00e9, but letting out all your pent up emotion is important. Burying the pain deeper won\u2019t make you feel better and the holidays bring up all sorts of difficult emotions for bereaved individuals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>10. Start a New Tradition<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is nothing wrong with keeping your past traditions in place, but if they cause you too much pain then consider adding something new to your holiday season instead. It could be volunteering at a community food pantry, adopting a local family for the holidays or cooking a new dish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your holidays are marked by grief this year, remember you are not alone. Reach out for help if needed and use the above tips to help you cope during this difficult time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During the holiday season, you face constant reminders of the past when your loved one was by your side.
