Pooh-losophy of grief (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I have witnessed the agony of watching my dad flatline in the ICU, a college bestie’s body slowly turn cold after life support was withdrawn, and the ache of difficult “goodbyes.” At wakes, listening to eulogies often reveals who someone was and the impact they made. The joy, sadness, anger and regret expressed by mourners often moves me, leaving me melancholic and reflective. In moments of offering sympathy to the grieving, I’ve learned that the most compassionate response is often not to say a
The rain reset: A masterclass in letting go (opens the original)
Read excerpt

Psychologists describe this feeling as awe—a profound sense of wonder when confronted with something vast or beyond ourselves. Mental health practitioners acknowledge that experiencing awe can ease stress, support emo
Raising strong children in mind and heart (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Recently, my heart ached with sadness on reading about a female college athlete who died by suicide after jumping from her school building. It made me think about how a child can have good grades, a comfortable home and plenty of opportunities—and still quietly struggle, mentally and emotionally.
