Good evening. Does anyone have the Guilt, Shame, Blame, Helplessness, Self Forgiveness Chart. I cannot get into Opus Peace. Tried resetting the my password but they won't sent me the link. If you have the chart, can you scan and send it to [email protected]. Thank you!

Interesting article on writing thank you notes, gratitude and our brains :) https://siliconcanals.com/s-t-psychology-says-people-who-still-handwrite-thank-you-notes-instead-of-texting-dont-just-have-good-manners-they-process-gratitude-at-a-neurological-depth-that-changes-how-they-experience-relationsh/

I have a lot of trouble not being fully aware of a situation and where work is concerned I am really struggling not knowing everything that is going on. How do you all just “let things go?” My anxiety is triggered bc this need to know goes back to my very, very early childhood.

I am doing this class alongside Doula 101 at IDLM and am not yet in the groove of the routine and missed 2/1 class. I had it in my mind (not calendar) that is was this Sunday. I do have a question as I muddle through the class work. Where do you download the Loss Inventory Tool that is referenced multiple times? I have it in my book but would appreciate a printed version as I’m sure this will change over time.

This is a community for honest, tender conversations about life, death, grief, and legacy. To keep it safe and usable for everyone, we agree to the following: 👉1. Lead with kindness and respect - No harassment, bullying, shaming, or personal attacks. - No hate speech or discrimination of any kind (race, gender, sexuality, religion, politics, age, ability, etc.). - Disagree with ideas, not with people. 👉2. Confidentiality is sacred - What is shared here, stays here. - Do not share someone else’s story, screenshots, or posts outside the community without explicit permission. - Remove identifying details if you’re sharing an example in a teaching context. 👉3. This is not medical, legal, financial, or mental health advice - Nothing in this community replaces professional medical, legal, financial, or mental health care. - You may share your experience (“What helped me was…”), but do not tell others what they must do. - Do not diagnose, prescribe, or offer step-by-step instructions for treatment, medications, or legal actions. 👉4. Crisis and safety - This community is not a crisis service. - If you or someone you know is in immediate danger or thinking about harming themselves or others, contact local emergency services or a crisis hotline in your area right away. - You may say, “I’m having a hard time,” but please avoid graphic details of self-harm, suicide, or violence. 👉5. Speak from your own experience - Use “I” language. Share your own story, beliefs, and questions. - We honor many spiritual, religious, and philosophical perspectives here. - No preaching, converting, or insisting that your belief is the only “right” way. 👉6. Gentle with the details - We talk about death, dying, and grief—but we don’t need gore. - Avoid graphic medical descriptions, violent detail, or anything likely to be traumatizing. - When in doubt, keep it simple and respectful. 👉7. Boundaries, DMs, and emotional labor - Do not pressure other members for 1:1 support, therapy, or “fixing.” - Ask before moving a conversation into private messages. - If you are a professional (therapist, doula, attorney, etc.), do not solicit clients or give individualized professional advice here.
