Healing doesn't always have to be about doing more.

Sometimes healing looks like curling up on the couch, finding a story that feels comforting, and letting yourself rest for a while. Other times, it's seeing a character experience grief, loss, or change in a way that makes you think, "Yes. That's exactly what it feels like."

These are shows that have made me laugh, cry, think, escape, or simply feel a little less alone. Some offer comfort, while others portray grief and healing in ways that helped me feel understood and a little less alone in my own experience.

May they offer a familiar place to land when you need one.
