Mindfully Navigate the Holidays As You Grieve
Grieving is never easy, and emotions intensify around the holidays. Granting yourself grace and compassion allows you to stay true to your needs as the holiday nears without a loved one.
Being mindful of the big feelings doesn’t have to subtract from the love surrounding your grief. Grief and sadness can sit at the same table.
Welcome to Healing Press!
Hi, I’m Carole Heaney. Thanks for visiting the home of my publishing company, Healing Press. It’s my mission to publish content to promote healing and build resilience through conversation and connection, one story at a time.
As an author of children’s books, I promote emotional self-awareness and self-management using mindful responses in everyday encounters.
I enjoy writing stories with my six grandchildren in mind as they grow in our rapidly changing world. I understand that feeling safe and positive enhances their ability to establish and maintain healthy relationships.
As children begin noticing their body’s responses to their emotions in changing situations, they can develop a powerful life habit of self-inquiry that encourages self-trust and confidence to problem-solve.
Our growth is the cornerstone of forming and maintaining healthy relationships with ourselves and others. After all, relationships provide the meaningful and loving dimensions of our lives.
In healing and love,
