Traditions that once brought comfort felt hollow. Chris recounts the emotional toll and the necessity to find a mental space to recharge.
Planning for holidays in advance, creating actionable plans, and even opting out of festivities if needed, are viable options for those grieving. The essential element is to honor one's own pace and needs without succumbing to societal expectations.
