I believe I was born with and have everything I need to embrace my life, loss, and mortality wholeheartedly. Everyone has the power to honor their state and quality of “being” – what I call “•ity” or, what makes you, uniquely you – here, now, and beyond. I trust that when we die, our spirit – the energetic – or the essence of that "being" lives on within the relationships we have cultivated along the way. Relational legacies are the meaningful connections that begin at birth. Deepening these connections throughout life make navigating loss and grief easier. With guidance and practice, learning to normalize loss and death create opportunities to venture more confidently into challenging times. My lifelong curiosity about dying, death, and the pain of my own losses, caused me to seek out ways to maintain eternal relationships. Although I do not have all the answers, I continue to be excitedly curious about how to build bonds that extend beyond loss and death. kristynity is a way forward, a philosophy of cyclical interconnectivity. I am optimistically hopeful that exploration and implementation of creative resources designed to expand connection, beginning in childhood, can and do reduce suffering when separation occurs. Here's how… By discovering what makes you, uniquely you – your “•ity”. How did you come to be? What is meaningful to you? What is your unique legacy now, how would you like to be remembered when you leave a room, or leave this life? The first experiences and explorations of legacy and loss are often the hardest, but they can be the foundation for beautiful and meaningful engagement with loved ones… Why now? Designing ways to honor and share who you are at the soul level with those closest to you throughout life, generates multiple opportunities to deepen connections and fuel a sense of belonging. The bonds between you and those privileged to journey with you can and do live on once the physical life has been transformed into a new way of being. After loss, grieving becomes the ongoing practice of learning to live with and love yourself and these new relationships in ways that offers healing, comfort, and joy. Thank you for taking the time to share this space with me and your interest in finding out how your “•ity” can transform loss, death, and grief into something that can be experienced as a continuation of life – renewed.
