A racing mind is like a freight train–often so impossible to stop.
By practicing mindfulness, you can meet your thoughts as they come, and feel them–but not get stuck by them.

Whatever you want to call those people in your life that give you care, there’s no doubt that we all need a strong support system.

The thing about grief is that it demands to be felt.
