In today’s episode I am sharing with you what I have learned about managing grief in a healthy way – the importance of finding healthy ways to cope, finding expressions of grief that are helpful to you, why taking good care of yourself is helpful in this process and simple ways to mother your baby. I share a new-to-me simple strategy for managing intense grief waves as well as my favorite coping method, why its helpful and tips for putting it into practice.
We put together a free worksheet for you that will be really helpful at putting into practice some of the things I’m sharing with you in this episode. If the waves of grief feel overwhelming right now – this free worksheet is going to be a practical tool that will help. Download that worksheet at themorning.com/copingtools
I pray they offer you hope. I pray they remind you that you are not alone.
