Welcome

You’re in the right place.

This masterclass is here to help you better understand the weight of guilt after suicide loss – and to offer gentle ways to begin easing that burden.

There is nothing you need to do except listen.

Before You Begin

If you can, take a moment to settle yourself:

  • Choose a quiet space where you won’t be interrupted

  • Allow yourself these 30 minutes without rushing

  • You may wish to have a drink or something comforting nearby

  • Pause at any time if you need to – you are always in control

This is not about pushing yourself.
It’s about allowing understanding to unfold at your own pace.
