A beautifully presented journal to help children heal through grief with guided journal prompts, meditations, activites and mindful practices.

About

Healing after loss can feel impossible—especially for children. This gentle grief companion, journal and activity book has been created to guide children and their families through the tender process of healing together. Created by an experienced, trauma-trained Headteacher—and a mother who has faced the heartbreak of losing her own daughter—it provides gentle guidance, comforting activities, and thoughtful journaling prompts.

Designed as a companion to the picture book Your Loving Light, which tenderly shows how the cycles of nature teach us that life continues, this journal helps children explore those same themes in their own lives. Through writing, drawing, meditating, being in nature and shared family activities, children can honour their memories, process emotions, and discover that their loved one’s light still shines on.

A tender resource for any child experiencing grief, this book transforms pain into connection, memory, love and hope—showing that love, like nature, never ends.

Inside you’ll find:

  • Original guided journaling pages to help children share thoughts and feelings.
  • Creative activities designed to spark conversation and connection.
  • Gentle prompts that encourage children and families to remember, honour, and celebrate their loved one.
  • Healing exercises to build resilience, nurture hope, and remind children they are never alone.
  • Gentle Information to help children understand and process what happens when people and animals die, and how to recognise their emotions. It also teaches the importance of taking care of their nervous systems.
  • Meditations and additional pages, specifically designed for children, are available online via QR codes.

This book isn’t just for children—it’s a companion for grieving families, helping them walk the path of grief together with honesty, love, and light.

This is such a lovely, gentle book. It really feels like a safe space you can come back to when you’re dealing with grief or just feeling overwhelmed. Nothing about it feels heavy or forced—it’s calm, comforting, and really easy to sit and read.

I especially liked the little spiritual practices throughout the book. They’re simple but actually helpful, and they make it feel more interactive rather than just something you read and forget. I also appreciated the reminder to step away from technology for a bit—it’s something we all probably need more of, and the book handles that idea in a really calming, non-judgmental way.

Even though it might seem like it’s aimed at younger readers, I honestly think anyone can get something out of it. It’s one of those books that works on different levels depending on where you’re at.

Overall, just a really nice, comforting read. Also a cool bonus that the author has a YouTube channel you can check out through the QR code in the book—definitely worth a look, would recommend!F
