Grief must be witnessed. You can’t ignore grief or run from it — it tends to catch up. If you have a thousand tears to shed, you can’t stop at 500.
Navigating the Rocky Terrain of Grief
“The only way out of the pain is through the pain, but no one teaches us how to do that in trauma and grief, and we don't understand how to deal with these losses of life or relationships. In this course, people will learn healthy ways to cope and move forward. They’ll be in a safe space to admit their grief and start attending to it. Because we cannot heal what we don’t feel. We must name it and be with it to really heal. And I’m not talking about forgetting. I’m talking about integrating loss in a healthy way.”
