From Heartache to Healing: Navigating Grief with Spirit and Self

Hello my radiant spirits,

I want to take a moment to speak to those of you who are carrying the heavy weight of grief. Whether you're mourning the loss of a loved one, a relationship, or a life chapter that’s come to a close—please know, you're not alone. Navigating grief is deeply personal, and it’s also sacred. It has the power to break us open in the most profound ways… but also to heal us, to wake us up, and to reconnect us with who we truly are.

Grief Is Not Something to “Get Over”

I often hear people say, “I should be over this by now.” But grief doesn’t work that way. There’s no timeline, no finish line. Grief moves in waves—and rather than trying to outrun it, I invite you to sit with it. Feel it. Honor it. Your emotions are not something to fix; they are something to witness. And through that process, healing begins.

Messages from Spirit Are All Around You

As a psychic medium, I’ve been blessed to see how those we’ve lost are still with us—just in a different form. They show up in small signs: a feather, a song, a scent, or a sudden memory that wraps around your heart. These are not coincidences. They are messages. When you’re ready, open your heart to them. Trust that love transcends this physical world.

Caring for Yourself Is a Sacred Practice

While you're grieving, please don’t forget to care for the most important soul in this process—yourself. Here are a few gentle ways to do that:

• Move Slowly: Rest. Journal. Meditate. Let your body and spirit tell you what they need.

• Reach Out: Don’t isolate. Call a friend. Seek out support circles or someone who can hold space for your story.

• Give Yourself Permission: Cry. Laugh. Sit in silence. Healing is not linear, and there’s no “right” way to feel.

  
  

You Are Not Alone, My Dear Ones

If no one else has told you today—let me be the first: you are doing a beautiful job. You are brave for showing up. And even if you feel shattered right now, your soul is still whole. Let your grief soften you, not harden you. Let it become the gateway to your spiritual awakening.

Remember, radiant spirits: healing is your birthright. And while grief may be part of your story, it doesn’t define your whole journey.

With love and light,

Heather Lena
