Tips for Coping with Loss During the Holidays:
- Don't expect too much of yourself, grief can be exhausting.
- Have a family meeting and decide who is going to do certain chores for the celebration.
- Revisit old traditions. Decide which traditions you want to keep and which you might want to change.
- Give yourself permission to smile. Don't feel guilty if you are able to enjoy parts of the holiday celebration.
- Get plenty of rest and exercise. Eat healthy foods.
- You might want to do something to honor your loved one. This may include: telling stories, sharing memories, serving his/her favorite food, starting a new tradition in his/her memory.
