About Your Holiday Healing Journey
The holidays can feel overwhelming when you’re grieving. Every tradition, every gathering, every decorated store window can trigger waves of sadness and loss. You might feel pressure to “be festive” when your heart is breaking, or find yourself avoiding holiday activities altogether.
But you don’t have to face this season alone. Through gentle daily walks and mindful reflection prompts, our 16-day program offers a different way through the holidays—one that honors your grief while helping you find moments of peace. No forced cheerfulness, no timeline for healing. Just daily support, gentle movement, and a compassionate community who understands.
Who Is the Healing
Walks Holiday Challenge For?
The Grief Edition of the Healing Walks Holiday Challenge is specifically designed for anyone navigating the holiday season after losing a loved one—whether your loss is recent or your grief has spanned many seasons. You may resonate with the program if:
You feel guilty about experiencing any joy during the holidays, as if smiling or laughing somehow dishonors your loved one’s memory.
Your heart sinks every time someone asks about your holiday plans, because all you can think is “I just want one more Christmas with them”.
You’re tired of people saying they would want you to be happy when all you want is permission to admit this holiday season feels impossible without them.
They say it’s the most wonderful time of the year. No one tells you what to do when it becomes the hardest. But you don’t have to walk through it alone.

Challenge FAQs
Is this challenge specific to Christmas?
Yes, this walking journey is designed around Christmas traditions, memories, and challenges. While the prompts specifically address Christmas grief, participants can adapt them to their own cultural and religious traditions. If there’s interest, we plan to create similar programs for other holidays in the future.
How long do my walks need to be?
The length of your walks are your choice. The prompts are gentle and flexible – some days you might want to spend more time reflecting, other days just a few quiet minutes are enough.
What if I miss a day?
There’s no falling behind on this journey. The emails and materials are yours to keep, and you can pause, restart, or adjust the pace to match your needs. Grief doesn’t follow a schedule, and neither should your healing.
What kind of support is provided?
You’ll receive daily email prompts, printable walking guides, journal prompts, and optional community support through our private Facebook group. While this isn’t therapy, it’s a thoughtfully designed space for processing grief during the holidays.
