Today’s episode is about grief. Grief is a lonely place. First, it’s important that you have compassion and tenderness towards yourself during your season of grief. That you allow yourself to grieve for as long as you need. This time of grief for me, I needed to give myself time to walk through it. Since I allowed myself to feel the emotions, they were really intense. I wasn’t denying them or suppressing them. I wasn’t disconnecting from myself.
It’s also important to give your body time to rest. When you’re going through a season of grief, you physically feel more fatigued. We’re connected emotionally, physically, and psychologically. Give yourself opportunities to sleep and rest. Continue to incorporate moments that are light and fun. Sometimes in the midst of grief you don’t want to do fun things. It’s a balance of feeling your feelings and seeing the sun shine. Joy and grief are able to coexist. Gratitude in the middle of your grief is so valuable. I will choose to see the gifts in my life right now even though I’m experiencing disappointment. You are allowed to feel good even if you’re in the middle of grieving. Allowed the joy and peace to be experienced.
I truly believe that even in the darkest of times, you can still see the sunshine. I speak from experience. I know it’s possible because I’ve done it.
