    Q&A | What Can I Do To Support Myself in My Grief?

    Q&A | What Can I Do To Support Myself in My Grief?

    The question, "What can I do to support myself in my grief,"  has a simple answer in four words that I don't share in the episode but is explored through the self-reflection exercise contained in the episode.

    What are the four words?

    Get - To - Know - Yourself. ✨

    In this week's episode, you will do just that.

    Before you listen, I suggest you get in the headspace and right environment to self-reflect. Light a candle if you like. Eliminate distractions. Push play.

    There are three steps in this self-reflection exercise. As you go through each exercise, you'll push pause whenever you need. Give yourself as much time as you need but also go with whatever comes to mind first - don't dissect the question or think too long or hard.

    Grievers often don't know what they need or what they want. Life has been turned upside down, and some days are an exercise in just making it to the end of the day.
    No matter where you are today, I know it's possible to feel at least 1% better. However, it takes some action and reflection first.

    Even in grief, we have to think with the end in mind: How do I want this grief to change me? For the better? For the worse?

    We have a duty to ourselves, and the ball is in our court to move the pieces and players who will support us to get where we desire to be emotionally, physically, spiritually, and mentally.

    You will learn which areas you need additional support in through this episode's three steps. You'll bring to your awareness what matters most to you right now and what may be getting in the way.
