5 months and 50 blog posts later, here we are, and what a journey it has been. My counsellor first recommended journalling very early on in our sessions together, many moons ago. At the time, it wasn't something I was interested in doing. However, over time (and with plenty more encouragement), I began journalling. I quickly realized that I had many thoughts that needed processing and that writing was a great way for me to do that for myself.
After recognizing the clarity that writing had given me, and considering how much I benefitted from reading other people's thoughts in their books or blogs, I decided to share my writing with the world.
Starting this blog, Heartfelt Healing, and putting my thoughts and experiences into words, has not only been therapeutic for me, but it has allowed my loved ones to understand my thoughts and experiences better. It has also given me the opportunity to connect with so many others navigating their own grief journeys. Throughout these months, I've received heartfelt messages from readers who found comfort in my words, and I can't express how much that means to me. Knowing that my experiences and reflections resonate with others reinforces the idea that we are not alone in our grief. We all have our unique stories, but we share common threads of love, loss, and the pursuit of healing.
As I continue to write and share, I hope it is clear that grief is not a linear process, and there are good days and bad days. And some days, writing comes easily, and other days, the words don't come.
Thank you for being a part of this journey with me, whether you're a regular reader or just stumbled upon my blog. I hope you find something here that speaks to you and helps you feel seen and understood.
