Therapeutic grief box created by a grief therapist
Created to provide support and facilitate healing during a very difficult time
What is it and who can benefit?
These are therapeutic grief boxes that were created to facilitate healing during this very difficult time. The boxes were created as a way of providing support not only to those who are grieving, but also to the circle of family and friends around them. Many times, our closest people do not know what to do or say to support us as we are going through something as devastating as grief.
Our society has taught us that support can be shown by sending an arrangement of flowers, a generic sympathy card, or a box filled with chocolates and food. Although this is not wrong, these are all very short-term bandages on a much larger wound and does not facilitate healing.
You can buy these boxes for yourself or for someone who is grieving to help them through their grief journey.
I want you to be able to process your emotions in a healthy way. I want you to understand your emotions, to know them, and to know what to do to cope with them. We are never taught how to manage emotions that are as intense as the ones you are feeling right now, and for that reason, you might not know what do with them.
Grief can be SO overwhelming, scary, and isolating. I do not want anyone going through grief to have to go through this painful and scary journey alone.
What makes these grief boxes unique?
Every item in these boxes was carefully and intentionally curated by me, a mental health therapist who specializes in grief. A combination of professional training as well as my daily interactions with clients going through grief showed me the lack of options to provide meaningful support that facilitates healing in a moment where your world has been turned upside-down.
When it comes to grief, everything can feel overwhelming, and no one is sure of where and how to start. This can be paralyzing and terrifying. Inside each box, you will find self care tips and detailed explanations on how to use each item along with therapeutic activities that can help you start moving through your grief and facilitate healing. The purpose of this box is to teach you how to create a long lasting connection with your loved one after their death.
This box is NOT a substitute for grief therapy. It can be a great supplement to therapy and serve as guidance in a moment that seems to be filled with chaos and uncertainty.
Some questions that may be on your mind.
Can I customize the items in the box?
We wish we could let everyone choose their own items, but at this time, each box will contain the same items. Some variations in colors and sizes will occur depending on stock (eg. heart and paw stones).
Where do you ship the boxes to?
Right now, we are shipping within the U.S. via UPS and charge a flat rate. Shipping may take up to five business days, depending on the recipient’s location.
Will the box include a receipt?
No, we will not include a receipt (or any buyer information) in the box since these boxes are meant to be gifted. We will include, however, any message from the buyer if added at checkout. A receipt will be sent to the buyer’s email.
When would the box ship?
Because we are a small business and every box is carefully arranged, allow us one to three business days to ship this box.
Are you going to offer other grief boxes?
Of course! Check back soon to see the alternative grief boxes that will be offered. They will be based on different types of losses as well as different ways of processing that loss.
Every box will also have a Spanish version, so please check it out!
