There is no right or wrong way to grieve, but there are healthy ways to deal with the grieving process. These tips can help.#Grief is a natural response to loss. It’s the #emotional #suffering you feel when something or someone you love is taken away. Often, the pain of loss can feel overwhelming. You may experience all kinds of difficult and unexpected #emotions, from shock or anger to disbelief, guilt, and profound sadness. The pain of grief can also disrupt your physical health, making it difficult to sleep, eat, or even think straight. These are normal reactions to loss—and the more significant the loss, the more intense your grief will be.Coping with the loss of someone or something you love is one of life’s biggest challenges.

Whatever the cause of your grief, though, there are healthy ways to cope with the pain that, in time, can ease your sadness and help you come to terms with your loss, find new meaning, and eventually move on with your life.#renudaga #copingwithgrief #bestcounsellor #thelifegenieCheck out my latest episode!
