Episode 4 - How I Actually Grieve

Elizabeth Gilbert once said:

Deep grief sometimes is almost like a specific location, a coordinate on a map of time.

When you are standing in that forest of sorrow, you cannot imagine that you could ever find your way to a better place.

But if someone can assure you that they themselves have stood in that same place, and now have moved on, sometimes this will bring hope.

Cynthia G. Kelley once wrote:

My grief is like a river, I have to let it flow..

But I myself determine just where the banks will go.

Some days the current takes me in waves of guilt and pain.

But there are always quiet pools where I can rest again.

I crash the rocks of anger my faith seems faint indeed..

But there are other swimmers who know that what I need

are loving hands to hold me when the waters are too swift..

And someone kind to listen when I just need to drift

Grief’s river is a process of relinquishing the past..

By swimming in HOPES channels, I’ll reach the shore at last.

Episode 5 - Grief and  Grieving Through the Lens of Neuroscience

Neuroscientist Dr. O’Connor Once said:

Accepting is knowing that a person is gone, that they will never return, that there is nothing to be done about things that happened in their lifetime, that regrets and goodbyes are part of the past. Accepting is focusing on life, as it is now without the deceased person, without forgetting the deceased person.

Dr. O’Connor Once said:

Once you have experienced deep grieving, you walk through a doorway to a whole community of people that you would otherwise never have understood or empathized with. You probably would not choose this door if the choice was yours. And yet here you are on the other side with knowledge about yourself, and a marvelous brain that you can utilize to build and navigate a new world.
