Losing a spouse or partner is one of life’s most stressful and challenging experiences, and having supportive resources at your fingertips is a necessity…especially in the early days. Comprised of easily digestible documents, videos, books, and additional resources, our Resource Center was created to give you easy access to supportive, life-affirming tools for the road ahead.
SSI Programs
Soaring Spirits has one goal; to connect widowed people with each other. We have felt the relief of being understood by another widowed person. We have laughed, and cried, with our widowed community. We have witnessed the transformation that having access to hope makes for someone whose life has been altered by death. What we offer widowed people is resources, community, and hope.
Downloadable Documents
Providing documents for our newly widowed community, your support community, and other general resources on processing the trauma of grief, the Document Center provides helpful support resources that can be downloaded or shared with friends and family.
Videos for Comfort and Calm
Originally created for our Camp Widow Virtual event series, these videos were crafted by your widowed peers to promote a sense of comfort and calm. Featuring everything from easy yoga to tips and tricks to reduce anxiety, these videos serve as a boost of comfort regardless of how long its been since your loss.
Book Library
No one knows what it’s like to be widowed more than those who have walked this path before you. This curated list provides book titles written for widowed people, by widowed people, and also contains suggestions for grieving children.
