Healing Grief

Healing Grief 

Generally when we talk about grief we associate it with bereavement and yes, we grieve when people we care for die, but we also grieve when there have been life-changing events: becoming a teenager, leaving home, getting married, getting pregnant, having a baby, a miscarriage, changing jobs, moving house, going through the menopause, getting older, separation, divorce, losing a pet, etc. The list is endless. We grieve when we experience a change in our personal or environmental circumstances, we change from one experience to another. It might be a good change, but in changing we experience the loss of what was previously. 

Grief

  • Grief is a normal and natural reaction to loss

  • Grief is the conflicting feelings caused by the end of, or the change in, a familiar pattern of behaviour

  • Grief creates heartache and pain deep within the heart

  • It may be caused by death, either recent or long ago

  • It may be caused by divorce or the break-up of a romantic relationship

  • It may be caused by an awareness that you are not happy with your life, or that your life is not fulfilling in the way that you want it to be

  • It may be caused by any number of r losses that a person can encounter during a lifetime

  • Only you know how you feel and why that is. I will be by your side as you explore your grieving process, always with compassion and an open heart. Together we will touch into your feelings, emotions and events in your life where you have experienced a significant loss. By acknowledging these aspects of suffering , the healing can start to take effect.

  • Sessions

    As a Grief Recovery Method practitioner I offer a 7-week programme for 1-1, or an 8-week programme in a group. For you to gain the most benefit from this programme you are to complete some home study and reflection each week before the next session. It is important for your process to complete the tasks each week so that you can continue with the programme. https://www.griefrecoverymethod.com/grms/liz-midgley

    I also offer grief support combining Grief Recovery, Compassionate Inquiry, Mindfulness and Compassion in nature where we go at your pace and hold space for what arises in you on the day. I would recommend a minimum of weekly sessions for 6 weeks for this approach.
