Last night Pregnancy & Infant Loss Support Centre hosted our very FIRST fundraiser and we got to do it with our dear friends at @averys_legacy and @compassionstonesbycarolinpost (if you aren’t following them, you need to!) Our hearts are still so joyful having seen the Centre full of love and kindness. .
.
.
It was a fun evening of community; creating compassion stones, laughter, sharing, and connecting—all for good causes. The entire event was in support of Avery’s Legacy and the Pregnancy & Infant Loss Support Centre, both amazing and needed organizations in Calgary. .
.
.
Thank you to all who came out and supported our missions. We look forward to your continued support in the future.

What possibilities for healing, support and connection can a new peer mentoring program bring?
Let's find out!
Yesterday our team hosted and facilitated our very first Volunteer Peer Mentoring Training at the @pregnancylosssupportyyc
We had 10 participants (one who joined us from Montreal!). The commitment, passion and vulnerability each person showed up with was inspiring. It was a very full day and we are grateful to all the professionals that delivered the various sessions throughout the day.
Stay tuned for our official launch of the Peer Mentoring Program coming in May!

:::SITTING WITH DARKNESS:::.
.
.
.
Recently I went to a local restaurant called “Dark Table”. The concept of the restaurant is that you dine in complete darkness. You can’t see a single thing around you, not even your hand in front of your face. .
.
.
When we first got seated at our table I didn’t know what to expect. And as I looked around into the layers of darkness, I started to panic. It was dark. Like really dark. And scary. And super uncomfortable. I couldn’t tell who was next to me or what was in front of me. I felt out of control; the darkness slowly suffocating me. I wanted to get up and run out. .
.
.
But I literally couldn’t run—I couldn’t see which way was in or which way was out. .
.
.
So I had no choice but to sit with it. I sat in the discomfort. In the fear. In the unknown. I sat with it all. The darkness closing in on me. .
.
.
But then out of nowhere a small sliver of light appeared. A super small sliver that you wouldn’t even be able to see had it not been for the darkness around me. So small that I’m not sure it was even real; it didn’t need to be. .
.
.
Because in that moment that sliver of light brought me calm. It gave me comfort. It eased my rapidly racing heart. And it served as a deep reminder that sometimes we need to sit in the darkness, the discomfort, the unknown in order to see the glimmers of light. The smallest spaces of hope. .
.
.
We can’t always run away. And if we allow ourselves to stay, to sit with the darkness long enough—the light (no matter how small) will indeed come. .

Create a CONTAINER for your own healing
Listen to your body
Be your energy
Fully in your power
In your body
You’re not someone else
Nobody’s journey is like yours
In order to let go you must go within
And allow the hidden to flow
Your heart space deserves to be seen
To show up
As it is now
Again and again
We need more of you
Your truth
Is compassion to yourself
And love to others
You’re exactly where you need to be
Your feelings are not wrong
Grief, loss.
The painful anger
The joy the gratitude
They all coexist beautifully
Because they are you
Slow down
Feel more
So that your heart can expand
It is safe to know you
To be you
This is my story
My blossoming through immense pain
Im not done
And will never pretend to be
Healing over healed
My story is part of me
Today is #internationalbereavedmothersday
And this is my biggest wish for you
That you would feel empowered in your choices
That you know you don’t have to quantity your feelings
That you feel safe to listen to your body
That the time, space and tools needed for your healing
You are allowed to ask for
That you
Are worthy and enough exactly as you are
Not despite your loss but because of it
From my heart to yours ❤️ @pregnancylosssupportyyc

:::MEET DR. MANDIE:::.
.
.
.
I am so excited to have this amazingly supportive soul offering Acupuncture at the Pregnancy & Infant Loss Support Centre.
.
.
.
Dr. Mandie (she/her) is a Registered Acupuncturist who is passionate about her work. Her dream is to be able to share Acupuncture with as many people as possible and show them what a beautiful, relaxing, and effective treatment it truly is. Her own fear of needles has helped her develop a very gentle needling technique which most patients find surprising and comforting, and best of all, helpful in their journey to health. .
.
.
Dr. Mandie has personally experienced pregnancy loss, and is truly excited that she is part of such a unique, caring, and accessible space for people to gain healing, wellbeing, and peace of mind.
.
.
.
Dr. Mandie is now booking sessions at the centre and has availablity May 30. Visit https://www.pregnancyinfantlosssupportcentre.com/bookings to book in. Asking of $30 donation.
.

Welcome Dr. Mandie, it is an honour to have you

:::SEEN:::.
.
.
.
I had coffee with a new friend today. We chatted about the heartbreak of pregnancy and infant loss. We honoured and celebrated one another’s journey and experience. We spoke without fear of judgement. We spoke out our baby’s names. .
.
.
We saw each other. Truly saw each other. Not only the pretty and light parts of us; we saw the complicated, messy, and silenced parts as well.
.
.
.
And I left feeling held. Held in understanding. Held in compassion. Held in love. .
.
.
If you are moving through the journey of pregnancy and infant loss, allow yourself to be seen. Those who matter will see and welcome you. ALL of you. .
.
.
And there is truly nothing better than that. .
.
Great post @aditiloveridge .
