Even though we will all lose people we are close to  at some time in our lives, we just aren't really prepared for how hard it can be to experience the deep sadness of grief. Especially now, during Covid, when some of us are mourning people we have lost and were not able to attend services for, when others of us are grieving the loss of jobs or seeing our relatives,  we need to understand how to cope with loss.

In this episode:

What is grief?

The six things you can do to help you heal from grief
