Carrying Love Forward™

Space to remember. Support for today.

Loss can change your routines, your relationships, and the way you see yourself. Some days, you may want space to remember. Other days, you may need help caring for yourself or finding words to ask for support.

Carrying Love Forward™ is a gentle digital companion that offers room for both. Created around Dr. Maxine Goring’s Soul-Centered Mental Wellness Model, it brings together practical guidance, optional reflection exercises, and everyday care tools you can use at your own pace.

There is no deadline to meet and no pressure to turn your loss into a lesson.

Inside, you’ll find support for:

• Naming your needs and making room for mixed feelings.

• Exploring changes in identity, roles, and daily life.

• Meeting guilt and painful thoughts with a fairer perspective.

• Setting boundaries and asking for specific help.

• Remembering through optional letters, memories, and personal rituals.

• Planning for anniversaries, holidays, and difficult reminders.

• Choosing small, manageable acts of daily care.

Your digital package includes:

• Start Here: A simple introduction to choosing the support you need today.

• Guide: Gentle education, grounding practices, and guidance organized around the four areas of the Soul-Centered Mental Wellness Model.

• Workbook: A needs check-in, reflection prompts, remembrance activities, support planning, and a seven-day care tracker.

• Quick Reference: Brief reminders and practical language for moments when reading a full guide feels like too much.

Spirituality sits at the model’s center, with room for your own understanding of faith, meaning, nature, community, or connection. No particular belief is required.
