I am happy and grateful for being able to safely go out in the blazing sun, even though I still get burned after three layers of sunscreen.💖😁
What are you grateful for this week?😃

And if you’re having a hard time right now— If gratitude feels impossible… or worse, like a cliché… or some oxymoron that belongs on a coffee mug and not in real life — My heart goes out to you, and I can only imagine how you feel.💙

Still, studies show that even in grief, one tiny thing we can honestly be grateful for—however small—can help us hold on.Not to bypass the pain… but to breathe through it.❤️‍🩹💞

You’re invited to join me in my Joyful Living Daily Gratitude, Affirmation, & Inspiration group:https://www.facebook.com/groups/217483258848074/Bring a friend. We don’t do toxic positivity. Just an honest, healing connection.

Meowdy!
Are you pushing yourself hard today, even when a part of you is asking for gentleness instead?

If so, Kit is saying "Hi" to you gently from his open purring heart, knowing that sometimes the most healing thing you can hear is "Do the Best You Can — But Only If It Feels Right"

️ His whisker wisdom for us all: "Do the Best You Can — But Only If It Feels Right."

I always try my best — unless it's raining, or I'm hungry, or the vibes are off.

Then I do what I can, and that's enough.

You're not here to perform.

You're here to live.

Do your best, yes, but not at the cost of your well-being.

Mamaw says effort without kindness turns into punishment. So check in. Are you pushing, or flowing? Forcing, or showing up gently?

Some days, brushing your teeth is enough. Some days, you build empires. Both are valid. Trust your inner compass. It knows what 'enough' is.

What about you: Where could you give yourself permission to stop pushing today?

And wherever you are, and I are here for you whether you want to celebrate or need a soft landing place, just message us.

If you'd like more of Kit's heartfelt wisdom, you'll find it in his book Sunbeam Days and Shadow Hours on Amazon: https://a.co/d/cl2OfT8 (A portion of net proceeds is donated to 501(c)(3) animal rescue organizations )

Honoring you on this Labor Day 💗
Not just the work that shows up on a résumé, but the quieter work too: the work of caring, of healing, of simply continuing on after loss. That counts. That's labor too, even if no one claps for it.

If today is easy for you, a barbecue, a lake, a long nap on the couch, enjoy every bit of it.😊

And if today feels a little heavier, if an empty chair or a missing voice makes itself known while everyone else is celebrating, that's okay too.
You don't have to perform "fine" today. Your grief doesn't take a holiday, and that's not something you need to hide or apologize for.

Wherever today finds you, easy or heavy or somewhere in between, you deserve ease.

And if you would like more guided support, you are warmly invited to the upcoming Heal Grief and Trauma workshop on Wednesday, September 16, 2026, at 5.30 pm Pacific. Details and registration: drtanforgrief.com/HealGriefTrauma
There is Help if you continue to allow support; thus, there is Hope.

Do you ever have a moment when you notice your grief continue to hurt, even when you thought you are doing “better”?

When the ache resurfaces. Maybe after someone who meant well and told you it is time to let go. Maybe you have told yourself the same thing, quietly, in a moment when the ache would not settle. And something in you tightened.

If you are experiencing this, my heart goes out to you. My article in the link looks at why the goal was never getting back to normal, and what kind of support actually helps when the walks and the water are not enough on their own.

Meowdy! 😃😺When did you last follow a question just because it made you go "hmmm... I wonder..."?

If so, Kit is saying "Hi" to you gently from his open purring heart, knowing that sometimes one of the most quietly powerful things you can do for your healing heart is to "Feed Your Curiosity Daily" 💗

⭐️ His whisker wisdom for us all: "Feed Your Curiosity Daily."

Every morning, I sniff the hallway; even if I sniffed it yesterday.

The air always has news. Maybe the neighbor's pup walked by, or the delivery person dropped off a box. Some smells are worth investigating, some aren't, but I check anyway.

Mamaw says curiosity keeps your brain young and your heart open. You don't need a big adventure, just follow a question, a scent, or a sound until you learn something new. Wonder is a form of nourishment.

What about you: What's one small thing you could explore or learn a little more about today? 🤗

And wherever you are, and I are here for you whether you want to celebrate or need a soft landing place, just message us. 🫶

Do you feel compelled to be kind when you see someone who is grieving or having a tough time?
Perhaps you give them extra patience. Maybe you try to help, even if it is "only" with comforting words.

Most people do.

Strangely, when we are the ones grieving, many of us demand that we be strong, keep going, and get well again quickly, preferably on our own.

But grief can affect your wellbeing. It can affect your nervous system, your body, your biochemistry, and your emotions.

So you may not be "failing" at getting through it.
Your body and mind may simply be responding to what you have been through.

As we close this year's Grief Awareness Month, Be Kind to Humankind Week, National Wellness Month, and National Grief Day, let's remember that kindness is not only something we give to other people.

We need it, too.

If you are experiencing grief, my heart goes out to you.

What if you allowed yourself the same patience you would give someone else who is grieving?

What if you allowed yourself to receive help and support, too?

You do not have to do this alone.

And if you're ready for more guidance on this journey, and a little more ease alongside the love you still carry, feel welcome to join me at my upcoming online workshop, Navigating Grief, on Wednesday, September 16, at 5:30 pm PDT. Register here: https://drtanforgrief.com/HealGriefTrauma

Are you missing your fur/scaley/ feathered baby so badly, but most people around you just don't seem to get it? Have you started holding back from talking about your baby and the heartache you feel because well-meaning people say things that end up being more hurtful than helpful?

On this Rainbow Bridge Memorial day and everyday, if you are experiencing the devastating loss of your beloved companion, my heart goes out to you.

As a furbaby mom, pet-loss grief specialist, and former veterinary oncologist, I can relate to and can only imagine how you feel; how profound and isolating this loss can be.
To support fellow pet parents navigating this painful space, I’ve written a resource to help honor and process your pain:

Has anyone made you feel like you're grieving wrong? Too messy, too numb, too quiet, too long?

One of the most common, hurtful myths about grief is that there is a right way to grieve. There is none. Your grief is unique because you are an individual and your relationship is unique.

Of the tens of thousands of people I have helped, no one grieves exactly the same. Even identical twins experiencing the exact same loss feel differently at different moments.

You grieve because you love, and no two loves are exactly the same. Grief is not linear and not meant to follow a textbook. You are not grieving wrong, you are being you, and your feelings are valid.

If you are experiencing this, my heart goes out to you.

A tool-set for you to try:
1. Lightly put one palm on your chest over your heart, then rest the other hand on top of it.
2. Say gently, "My love is unique and so is my grief. I am allowed to be me."
3. Say it again and feel the truth of the words.
4. Repeat step 1 to 3 with your hands over your diaphragm.
5. Do this whenever you feel unsettled.

You don't need anyone's permission for how you love and grieve.

And if you're ready for some guidance on this journey, and a little more ease alongside the love you still carry, I'd love to see you at my upcoming online workshop, Healing After Loss, on Wednesday, September 16, at 5:30 pm PDT. Register here: https://drtanforgrief.com/HealGriefTrauma

Meowdy! 😃😺
Has someone tried to love you lately; just not quite in the way you needed?

If so, Kit is saying "Hi" to you gently from his open purring heart, knowing that sometimes one of the most quietly profound things you can learn is to "Accept — but Still Meow" 💗

⭐️ His whisker wisdom for us all: "Accept — but Still Meow."

Okay. Full transparency from your favorite cat-sage. 😄

I am a chin scratch cat. Specifically, precisely, non-negotiably — chin scratches. That is my love language. That is my happy place. That is the thing that turns me into a purring puddle of contentment. 🐾

But Mamaw? She is a nose-kiss person.

Every. Single. Time.

I would present my chin — very clearly, very obviously, with full whisker-forward intention — and she would lean in and kiss my nose. 😄

I used to pull away. Honestly. The audacity. The missing of the point entirely!

But then something shifted in me. I started watching her face when she did it. And what I saw was — love. Real, genuine, overflowing, can't-help-herself love. Just expressed in her language instead of mine.

So now? I let the nose kisses land. I receive them for what they are — sincere, warm, HERS. 💗

And THEN — I turn my chin toward her and meow. Clearly. Lovingly. Persistently. Until I get those too. 😄

Here's what this means for you, especially when you're grieving and the people around you are trying so hard but maybe missing the mark:

Not everyone knows how to show up the way you need. Some will bring food when you need presence. Some will offer advice when you need silence. Some will say "be strong" when you need permission to fall apart.

That doesn't always mean they don't love you. Sometimes it just means they're speaking nose-kiss when you need chin-scratch. 💗

So try both things at once — the way I do:

Receive what's real and kind, even if it's not perfect. Let some of the imperfect love land. It's still love.

AND keep meowing for what you actually need. Clearly. Gently. Without apology. Until you get that too. 🐾

You are allowed to do both. Gracious AND honest. Receiving AND still asking. 🌟

What about you: What love could you accept today — and what will you keep lovingly meowing for? 🤗

And wherever you are, and I are here for you whether you want to celebrate or need a soft landing place, just message us. 🫶
