In the complex journey of grief and loss, finding a community that understands and supports your experience is invaluable.

Emotions are an integral part of our human experience. Itโs normal, natural and healthy to experience them on a day-to-day basis. Emotions can be a response to what we see, hear, feel, or think. There are many factors that influence our emotions and feelings such as our current moods, thoughts, memories and meaning that we make of events around us.
Mindfulness is a mental state that is achieved by focusing oneโs awareness on the present moment, while calmly acknowledging and not judging oneโs feelings, thoughts, bodily sensations, and surrounding environment.
Mental health care as a topic has finally started getting more attention, especially since the onset of the Covid-19 Pandemic.
