We’ve spent some time looking at the different ways we may experience grief. Since each grief is unique, it’s hard to say how exactly you will experience this loss.

There is no exact way other than your way. 

Chances are that this is not the first time you have experienced grief. The way you have grieved in the past and how you cope will be your best indicator of how you will live through this loss too.

We are all creatures of habit… meaning that we tend to move toward coping strategies that worked for us during the toughest times in our lives.

It’s important to understand how you respond to loss AND what has worked for you in the past to attend to your grief.

Grab a pen and some paper and watch the video.

We are going to do a little work together and this will help you better understand you.
