THE DAY AFTER

DEATH OF A PET

When a pet passes on, the sense of grief and loss you feel can be overwhelming and disorienting. The grieving process takes time, but certain essential oils may make coping easier by relaxing tense muscles and calming your emotions. Some good ones to try include bergamot, chamomile, jasmine, frankincense, and lemon balm. Diffuse them or enjoy them in a warm bath, one or two herbs at a time. Extra hugs are encouraged, too.
