“Our Baby in Our Hearts: A Mindful Story of Grief and Healing” – available now.
Welcome, Love
I’m so glad you are here
You didn’t arrive on this page by accident. You are being called to do the work of deep healing. You’ve heard the gentle whisper of your soul. You know it is time to find your light again. Let’s walk this journey together.
In 2021, we lost our son, Hayes, unexpectedly to stillbirth at 37 weeks. My living children were 5 and 7 at the time, and I didn’t know how to support them through their grief – especially while I was barely able to manage my own.
As part of my own healing, I found yoga, studied mindfulness, deepened my understanding of grief theory and positive psychology, and began practicing nervous system regulation. These were the most supportive practices I found, so I brought them home to my children. And they worked for them, too!
Our Baby in Our Hearts shares Grayson & Ivey’s touching journey through grief while gently introducing powerful mindfulness techniques to support healing. This comforting companion reminds families that, with time and mindful presence, love can heal even the deepest wounds.
Vera V. Chapman, LPC, BCC, CYT, is an author, coach, healer, and mama. Her life, once consumed by a busy lifestyle in the pursuit of feeling “enough”, shifted dramatically after the devastating loss of her son to stillbirth in 2021. Embracing her grief, she peeled back layers of trauma, found self-love, and rediscovered the essence of “being.” Today, Vera shares the transformative tools of yoga, reiki, and sound healing through her writing and holistic wellness coaching practice, Resonating Soul Wellness. Vera, originally from Cape Town, South Africa, now calls Lewiston, New York, home.
As part of my personal grief healing journey and supported by deep study into grief theory, positive psychology, nervous system regulation, and mindfulness, I turned pain to purpose by developing high-impact tools and resources for women like us. These are not just books and affirmation cards. They are gentle guides, showing you the way to healing.
Should you need deeper support, I invite you to connect with me directly for holistic wellness coaching. This involves a unique combination of embodiment practices, mindfulness, and energy work (reiki & sound healing) to help you heal and reconnect with your Light once again. Schedule a session with me over at my healing practice, Resonating Soul Wellness.
