Episode 66. 7 Steps to Healing Loss & Bereavement. Part 1

Step 1 - Allow it! There's not much to be done when you've just received the biggest blow of your life. Be gentle with yourself and take all the support you can get. Allow yourself to be vulnerable and even weak. It's OK. These initial few days will be crap and no one can really say or do anything that will change that. It's about surviving and getting through the funeral, etc.

Step 2 - Release the trauma from the body. This is the biggest part of the healing journey from my experience and from most of my clients who have worked with me through this. The sooner you can do this the better it will be for you in the long run. If you let the grief and pain settle in your body it can create a semi-permanent blockage in your body that you may start building your life around rather than learning to move forward without it.

If you don't have the tools to do it yourself find help. I have a 12 week bereavement program to help my clients through this intense transition to a new version of themselves. Email [email protected] to find out more.
