Early Cremation

At the same time, cremation was being practiced in other areas of the world dating back at least 17,000 years ago in Australia with the partially cremated Mungo Lady. In China, archaeologists have discovered over 700 intricately designed burial urns found in the Yangshao period (5000-3000 BC). By 800 BC, the ancient Greeks and Romans used this method almost exclusively in their funeral practices.

Egyptian Mummification

The Egyptians originated the art of embalming sometime around 4,000 BC. By 3,400 BC, mummification using this form of embalming technique was widespread. These mummies were markedly different by rank and social status; those of higher status were buried with great signs of their wealth – as well as favored pets and servants to serve them in the afterlife.

Losing a loved one for the first time can be one of life's most difficult and unfamiliar experiences.

Grief can bring many emotions, from sadness and shock to confusion, numbness, or even moments of peace. However you're feeling, it's important to remember that there is no right or wrong way to grieve.

Give yourself permission to take things one day at a time, lean on those who care about you, and be patient with yourself as you navigate your loss.

Healing doesn't mean forgetting. It means learning to carry the love and memories forward in a new way.

If you feel comfortable, share one thing that helped you navigate grief after losing a loved one.
