Losing someone you care about is a difficult and painful experience

It's natural to feel overwhelmed and uncertain about how to heal. No one likes to talk about death and it can be very isolating when you are feeling so bad.

Here are some steps you can take to help you cope with the loss and begin to heal
  1. Allow yourself to grieve: Give yourself permission to feel your emotions, whether it be sadness, anger, guilt or loneliness. Grief is a natural process, and it's important to allow yourself time to work through it.
  2. Seek support: Surround yourself with people who care about you, such as friends, family, or a support group. Talking about your feelings and sharing your memories can be a cathartic experience and can help you feel less alone.
  3. Take care of yourself: It's essential to take care of your physical and emotional well-being during this difficult time. Get plenty of rest, eat a healthy diet, and engage in activities that you enjoy, such as exercise or hobbies.
  4. Seek professional help: Consider seeking professional counseling or therapy to help you process your emotions and work through your grief. A mental health professional can provide you with the tools and support you need to cope with your loss.
  5. Celebrate your loved one's life: Honor your loved one's memory by celebrating their life and the memories you shared. Consider creating a scrapbook or memorializing them in a way that is meaningful to you.
  6. Give yourself time: Healing is a process, and it takes time. Be patient with yourself and allow yourself the space to grieve in your own way and at your own pace.
    ​
Remember that healing from the loss of a loved one is a journey, and it's okay to take small steps at a time. With time, support, and self-care, you can begin to find peace and acceptance as you move forward.

My Approach to Support You During The Worst Experience of Your Life

I specialize in a holistic, spiritual, and psychological approach to dealing with the death of a loved one, it involves integrating different aspects of the person's well-being to address their grief.

Please note: at first all of this will feel like bullshit and that's okay

​Here are some explanations of different approaches:
  1. Holistic approach: A holistic approach to grief recognizes that you are a complex person with interconnected physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual aspects. This approach emphasizes the importance of treating the whole person, not just the symptoms of grief. It is being a witness to how sad, angry, confused and lost you may feel. It may involve practices such as mindfulness, exercise, nutrition, and other self-care practices to support physical health and well-being, while also addressing emotional and spiritual needs.
  2. Spiritual approach: A spiritual approach to grief recognizes that you have a connection to something larger than yourself, whether that be a higher power, the universe, or a sense of interconnectedness with all things. This approach may involve prayer, meditation, rituals, or other spiritual practices that provide comfort, meaning, and a sense of connection to the deceased loved one.
  3. Psychological approach: A psychological approach to grief involves addressing the emotions, thoughts, and behaviors associated with grief. This approach may involve talk therapy, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy or grief counseling, to help the person process their emotions, develop coping strategies, and adjust to life without their loved one.
Overall, a holistic, spiritual, and psychological approach to dealing with the death of a loved one recognizes that grief is a complex and multifaceted experience, and that each journey through grief will be unique. It encourages a personalized approach to coping with grief that integrates various strategies and practices to support the person's overall well-being.


​Here’s the list of stages of grief, note you won’t experience this in a linear order

The stages of grief were first described by psychiatrist Elisabeth Kübler-Ross in her 1969 book, "On Death and Dying."  This is the classic go to list.  

  1. Denial: In the initial stage of grief, the individual may feel disbelief or shock and may struggle to accept the reality of the loss.
  2. Anger: As the shock of the loss wears off, the individual may experience feelings of anger, frustration, or resentment. They may feel like the loss is unfair or unjust.
  3. Bargaining: In this stage, the individual may try to negotiate with a higher power or attempt to find ways to undo the loss.
  4. Depression: As the individual begins to process the reality of the loss, they may experience deep sadness, feelings of emptiness, and a loss of interest in everyday activities.
  5. Acceptance: The final stage of grief involves coming to terms with the reality of the loss and beginning to adjust to a new reality. The individual may begin to find meaning in the loss and develop a sense of hope for the future.

Everyone experiences grief in different ways and in different order.  You may cycle through these feelings over days, hours or minutes depending on your individual experience
