Self-love while grieving

I was following the thread on FB just earlier this afternoon..." Just being in a good relationship is an ultimate servcie to the planet. - Marianne Williamson. then added "Being in a good relationship with ONESELF is a service to the planet...it is from this authentic place of self-love that we can truly serve."

When you are grieving, it can be hard to create a sense of normalcy amidst the waves of emotions. When possible, any small gifts of loving kindness towards yourself can go a long way.

Here is a short list that come to mind in being your own companion in grief...

-buy yourself some flowers
-listen to soothing music
-meditate for 5 minutes
-take a bath
-go for a walk
-give yourself permission to have a good cry
-give yourself a hug

and if possible....open your heart to feel whatever your feelings may be at this time.
