About 6 months ago Adele from Vegie Head emailed me and said “I just bought your Releasing Rituals 7 Day Guide and LOVED it! I’m writing a book for women who have lost their child, and the rituals they can use to support themselves throughout the process. I would LOVE for you to contribute!”
Not only is Adele an incredible person with one of the biggest hearts in the entire planet, she has the deepest compassion for love and pain I have ever seen. And being give this opportunity to help and heal through my own experiences was one in a million. So I jumped at the chance to contribute.
My story, however, is a little bit different. I confided in her that I had never lost a child through miscarriage or illness. But rather, that a couple of years ago, I lost a child by choice, per se. Having an abortion is a really fucking difficult decision. And 2 and a half years ago, it was one that I had to make.
This story, as you can imagine, is very, very close to my heart and not something I would normally share, but for this book Rituals, I knew it was the right time to open up and show a deeper side of myself. And to also share what helped me.
What was really crazy was that, during the time of writing I had sooooooo much resistance to actually bringing the story out of me into words on paper. And not so coincidentally, the man who was involved suddenly came back into my life out of the blue, and we spoke about what had happened for the first time since we had parted ways. Writing this story was cathartic and releasing for me, and I know this story can help others too.
I’m not going to go into the details here, but you can buy the book and read the whole story, plus the ritual I used to move on, by clicking on the button below.
