One of the most important processes in life is grief. When bad things happen in life, we have to work through them. Working through bad things is a little like digesting food. In life, we basically digest experience; we walk through it, take it in, use what is useful and eliminate the waste. When someone dies or when there is another kind of loss or injury in life, we have to be able to work through that experience and move on, leaving our hearts available for new experiences and relationships. We get rid of the hurt and pain by grieving and then keep the learning experiences that come with it.
Grief is a resolution tool, the process of metabolizing loss. We run into trouble when we fail to recognize our feelings in the grieving process. But what happens is, we become uncomfortable with the loss and the vulnerability that it brings us. We struggle to wrap our minds around what our lives look like without the entity that we have lost.
Sometimes grief is planned, but many times it comes unexpectedly. The underlying process of it all, however, is whether or not your system understands that you’ve endured a loss. Are you willing to own it, or are you in denial or in shock? It’s normal for you to be shocked; the body fights against loss and the emotional experience it brings.
When we see a loved one experience grief, it’s difficult for us to see them hurt. The burdens of loss are hard to carry.This course will show you what to do for someone who is experiencing grief.
