When Will I Get Over My Grief?
|
As I share more and more about my grief, pain and challenging emotions- and become more vulnerable about sharing my grief journey- I'm noticing some interesting feedback.
There have been some people offering me advice, telling me how to change, what to do with my grief. Some have suggested I spiritual bypass- jump over the "negative" and fill it with the "positive". Many people are just ignoring me. Thinking that grief is not part of their own life. I find this response to my pain interesting. But predictable. |
I imagine it is a response to the discomfort that most people have with grief.
That it needs to be "fixed" or changed, covered up or avoided.
It doesn't.
I don't need to be fixed. And neither do you.
The reality is there is nothing to fix. Nothing.
That it needs to be "fixed" or changed, covered up or avoided.
It doesn't.

I'm sorry to tell you this, but your grief isn't going away.
Your grief is normal. It's healthy.
It's even vital that your grieve.
Grief is a normal response to loss, pain, trauma and separation.
It is your body telling you that you are disconnected on some level. That a forced release has taken place. Your grief is therefor a powerful resource for helping you reconnect.
If you don't attend to your grief and your emotional body wisdom, you will miss out on how to reconnect to your inner wisdom.
Most people are numbing, avoiding and resisting their emotional body. When emotions are suppressed, you can not use them to harvest needs and gather the wisdom they are here to share with you.
The many ways to avoid and negate your emotions are often taught to you by your family, culture and society. But grief can be a powerful tool for re-establishing a relationship with your emotional body and its gifts.
Grief lives in the body and when it is undigested, unprocessed or avoided repeatedly, it can begin to cause extreme challenges- physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.
The nature of grief is to move, as the nature of water is to move. Human beings are primarily made of water and your emotions are directly connected to your inner waters. (Which is why you cry; It's a release process).
Supporting the movement of your grief is a powerful part of awakening the wisdom of your grief. Grief is very intelligent.
Suppressing your grief delays its natural cycles and rhythms. It's ability to clear you, heal you and awaken you.
Just as the Moon waxes and wanes, as the ocean tides come in and go out, as the seasons shift from life into death, the cycles of grief must be honored as normal, natural, even vital.
This is why most indigenous cultures have seasonal and monthly grief rituals, so the grief that has been collected- internally and collectively- can be released and let go of. Grief, therefore, is not accumulated- in the community or in the individuals. Think of this as a monthly or seasonal detox.
When you can build a relationship with your grief process as a natural part of life, grief can become an empowering experience. Learning skills and resources for attending to pain, loss, emptiness and sadness, are important parts of being a human.
Unfortunately, most people are only taught how to push past, avoid, resist or neglect their pain- rather than lean in closer to it and feel it fully.
Feeling your pain, supports its natural release.
Avoiding your pain, increases and intensifies it. Even if this means that it manifests in another part of your body.
Use my short podcast above to identify your grief and harvest its message. This is a powerful first step in acknowledging your grief and beginning to build a relationship with it.
I'll be sharing more resources in the coming days for those of you, like me, who are navigating the grief process- a lifelong journey of deepening your emotional body wisdom.
I'll also be sharing a special offering for those of you dedicated to your spiritual awakening through grief.
