Your physical wellbeing is greatly impacted by grief.

Many widows will suffer serious medical issues following the death of their husbands. Changes in sleep and eating patterns can lead to suppressed immune systems. Chronic stress may cause headaches as well as other nagging aches and pains. The neglect of regular checkups and screenings allow minor issues to flare into more serious conditions.

It’s important to focus on your body and to take better care of yourself. Your physical health will impact everything else you do, your emotions, and your mental fitness as you deal with grief.

As women we tend to be nurturers …now take care of yourself the way you would others that you love.
