Ele's Place West Michigan

Nature heals in ways words cannot. ???? Grief is heavy, but the earth knows how to hold it. The sun warms. The wind whispers. The trees stand steady, reminding you that even in loss, life continues. Take a walk. Breathe deep. Let the sky hold your sorrow and the ground steady your heart. Healing doesn’t mean forgetting—it means finding moments of peace, one step at a time. #HealingInNature #GriefJourney #OneBreathAtATime

Grief is a journey, and healing isn’t a straight path—it’s full of twists, turns, setbacks, and unexpected waves. And that’s okay as well as normal. If today is hard, keep going. If today is soft, embrace it. #GriefJourney #HealingIsNotLinear #OneDayAtATime

Grief is heavy. Some days, it feels like carrying a weight no one else can see. It comes in waves—some gentle, some overwhelming. And through it all, one thing is essential: Kindness. ? Kindness to yourself when you feel like you "should be doing better." ? Kindness to others who may not understand your pain. ? Kindness in allowing yourself time, space, and grace to heal. If you're grieving, be gentle with yourself. If someone you love is grieving, offer patience, love, and understanding. Grief is not a journey to be rushed—it’s one to be met with kindness. ??
