What are these Grief Support Programs?

The “Sea­son For Heal­ing – A Rea­son For Hope” & “You Will Always Be A Part Of Me” Grief Support Pro­grams are strong Grief Sup­port Tools for help­ing the indi­vid­u­als and fam­i­lies you serve to deal with the men­tal, emo­tional and phys­i­cal stress caused by the loss of their loved one or beloved pet.

These Grief Support Programs will:

  • Support Recovery in ways standard grief books were not designed to do
  • Are there for your Families when you can’t be
  • Help sufferers fall asleep naturally [Track 3 on the CD]
  • Help calm a racing mind and induce relaxation [Track 2 on the CD]
  • Are there after the Service, after the group class, after the private session
  • Make Memorable Gifts of Enduring Value that create Positive Impressions
  • Can build Goodwill & Name Recognition in your Community
  • Offer support and reassurance that what they’re feeling is normal and OK
  • Offer tools for dealing with insensitive people (disenfranchised grief)
  • Help to manage the stress of having to “go right back to work”
  • Show your concern for the Families you serve in a compassionate way
