As a funeral celebrant based in Preston and covering the North West and the Fylde Coast, I am deeply aware of how seldom we speak about death in our society. It has become the “white elephant in the room,” an uncomfortable topic we avoid, often at the expense of our emotional well-being. When we don’t talk about death, we risk leaving ourselves – and others – stuck in grief, sadness, and even shock or trauma.
This emotional burden doesn’t just stay in the mind. It can affect the body, too. Many people experience physical symptoms like headaches, digestive issues, or trouble sleeping, all of which may stem from unresolved grief and the stress that comes with it.
But it doesn’t have to be this way. Talking about death, sharing your thoughts, and allowing yourself to cry or listen can be profoundly healing. It’s a way to open your heart, face the inevitable with compassion, and begin the journey towards inner peace.
This space is for exactly that—to create a supportive environment where feelings about death and loss can be openly expressed.
If you’re ready to begin this healing journey or need support through grief, contact Mary to book a session. Let’s talk openly about death and find peace together.
