Yes, it is absolutely okay to skip Mother’s Day celebrations if you feel it’s what you need to heal and protect your emotional well-being.
Prioritising Your Grief: Grieving is deeply personal, and avoiding celebrations doesn’t mean you love your mum any less.
Avoiding Triggers: Stepping away from celebrations may help you avoid emotional overwhelm.
Taking Time to Reflect: Use the day for quiet reflection or self-care instead of participating in traditions that feel painful.
Honouring Your Own Needs: It’s important to prioritise what feels right for you, even if it’s different from others' expectations.
Creating Your Own Ritual: If skipping celebrations, create a private way to honour your mum, like lighting a candle or writing a letter.
Exploring Nature: Spend the day in nature for peace and grounding, away from the societal focus on the day.
Seeking Support: Lean on understanding friends or family.
Planning for Next Year: Take it one year at a time—your approach to Mother’s Day can evolve as you heal.
Embracing Freedom: Give yourself permission to grieve in your own way without guilt or judgment.
