The Beautiful Before by Heather Carnaghan ​
The Beautiful Before is a heart-wrenching collection that tells the true story of a mother's excitement for new life, unexpected profound loss, and navigating a new landscape while carrying complex grief. Stillbirth occurs in one in every 160 births in the United States, though the lack of social support for this kind of death makes many parents retreat into silence. Explore this collection of poetry in order to allow the story to unfold, or read/share selected pieces that support you or a friend through a similar stage of loss.

Grieve. Write. A Greif Journal for Parents After Stillbirth, Pregnancy Loss, or Infant Death by Heather Carnaghan ​
Grief is hard to carry, no matter what kind of loss you have experienced. Each loss has its own nuances, so it is important to find a grief journal that supports your shade of grief. Grieve. Write. is a grief journal for those grieving after stillbirth, pregnancy loss, or infant death. This shade of grief is especially complex because of the enormity of dreams and shortness of time that comes with it.  The 7 x 10 journal includes 75 thoughtfully compiled writing prompts that can be reflected on in any order and 60 pages of stationary for your own ideas.

Stardust by Heather Carnaghan ​
Stardust is a heart-warming, beautifully illustrated book comforts young children who have experienced the death of someone they love through the simplified science of star dust. Here on Earth, the "stardust" your special person leaves behind might be a beloved object, a symbol, a special kind of cell babies share with mothers, or a memory that you hold onto as you carry them with you.  It is purposefully free of euphemisms like "resting", "sleeping", or "gone away" as these can cause disheartening misunderstandings for young children.  "Stardust" invites readers to think about what their special person has left behind and how they can continue to make that person a part of new adventures.  The story supports healing after expected or unexpected death of any special person in the child's life, whether they are a baby, peer, or elderly loved one.  Where will you find your special person's stardust?

The Grief Journal Series
Grief journaling is a comforting, safe way to feel control over the stressful emotions that come along with grief. The Grief Journal Series is a collection of lined 7 x 10 paperback journals. Each journal has a grief-related quote on the cover and includes tips for writing to support your grief journey as well as 100 lined pages for your own reflections.  The journals in this collection are appropriate for all shades of grief as they do not reference a specific relationship with the person you have lost.  Grief never goes away, but a regular writing practice can help you become stronger to carry it.  With these pages, we wish you reflection and healing that is gentle on your heart. NOTE: These journals are blank inside. If you are looking for our grief journal that includes 75 prompts, check out "Greive. Write." above!
