Grief and the Journey of Healing
Grief is a deeply personal and often misunderstood experience. Society tends to encourage moving on quickly, but true healing comes from acknowledging and processing grief rather than suppressing it. Sharon Brubaker, a grief specialist with over 18 years of experience, guides individuals through their healing journeys with compassion and practical tools.
Rather than avoiding grief, embracing it with awareness can lead to emotional recovery. Suppressing grief may seem like the easiest option, but unprocessed emotions often resurface in unexpected ways. By allowing yourself to sit with your emotions, you create space for healing.
Take a moment to reflect on your grief journey with these questions. Writing down your thoughts can help you gain clarity and insight:
Have you been keeping yourself busy as a way to cope with grief? How has that been working for you?
What are some unexpected ways your grief has shown up in your daily life?
When was the last time you truly allowed yourself to sit with your emotions? How did it feel?
What would it look like for you to practice awareness and acknowledgment of your grief today?
Remember, grief is not something to "get over"—it's something to tend to with care and compassion. Sharon encourages you to challenge societal norms, embrace your grief, and practice self-awareness. When we allow ourselves to process grief instead of suppressing it, true healing becomes possible.
